Velvet Grin

[Verse 1] Tears melting through an old bed sheet Like lipstick dripping off a lazy lip queen You leaned back Crown crooked Half-asleep Ash on your dress But your stare was clean You knew you had me from that first velvet grin Glow in your teeth Halo of cheap perfume I knew I had you when you laughed at that sin Two broken halos hanging in this room [Chorus] This hasn’t happened yet But I feel the echo shaking in my chest This hasn’t happened yet Like a memory crawling in a sequined dress This hasn’t happened yet But we’re bleeding through the mattress Every bet This hasn’t happened yet (yeah, yeah) (oh, you know) [Verse 2] You draw a heart in the dust on the TV Rings on your fingers spell out “maybe” Wine in a teacup Crown on the floor You say “You staying?” like you’re not sure Your laugh kicks holes in the quiet night My name on your tongue comes out half-right We trade our halos for a paper crown Every bad idea We write it down [Chorus] This hasn’t happened yet But I feel the echo shaking in my chest This hasn’t happened yet Like a memory crawling in a sequined dress This hasn’t happened yet But we’re bleeding through the mattress Every bet This hasn’t happened yet (yeah, yeah) (oh, you know) [Bridge] [whispering hum underneath Barely audible] This hasn’t happened yet This hasn’t happened yet [hummed Breathy Close to the mic] Mmm-mmm Mmm-mmm Mmm-mmm Mmm-mmm [Chant Outro] (yeah) This hasn’t happened yet (yeah) This hasn’t happened yet Raspy angel in the back row This hasn’t happened yet Velvet sinner in the front row This hasn’t happened yet Call my name I’ll call you back This hasn’t happened yet Clap your hands We can’t go back This hasn’t happened yet Crowd it Shout it Don’t forget This hasn’t happened yet This hasn’t happened yet This hasn’t happened yet [whispering hum fades into silence]
