Midnight dripping down the walls, Red moon shining when it calls. Black lace tangled in my hair, Like I was never meant to care. I’m a little lost, a little wild, A pretty disaster with a crooked smile. I run on thunder, smoke, and rain, I make a home inside the strange. CHORUS I wanna stay young forever, Dancing underneath the weather. Hot blood, cold heart, beautiful mess, Dressed in black and overdressed. I’m a little bit wicked, a little insane, Laughing while I’m walking through the rain. If the night wants me, I’ll say yes— I’m a hot little mess, a hot little mess. Silver shadows across my face, I leave my worries in another place. Every heartbeat sounds like drums, I don’t care what tomorrow becomes. I’m chasing ghosts down empty streets, With midnight running through my veins. I know I’m chaos, I know I’m trouble, But I’d rather burn than live in subtle. CHORUS I wanna stay young forever, Dancing underneath the weather. Hot blood, cold heart, beautiful mess, Dressed in black and overdressed. I’m a little bit wicked, a little insane, Laughing while I’m walking through the rain. If the night wants me, I’ll say yes— I’m a hot little mess, a hot little mess. And when the sunrise finds my face, I’ll disappear without a trace. Maybe growing up can wait— Tonight I’m dancing with my fate. FINAL CHORUS I wanna stay young forever, Lost in the dark, but feeling better. Cold moon, red sky, nothing to confess, Still beautifully, hopelessly a mess. I’m not a saint, I never claimed to be, The night feels more like home to me. So let the whole world second-guess— I’m still a hot little mess.
