Right About Me

electronic alternative; arpeggiated mono synth carries the arrangement, the user's own recorded voice in a close, restrained lead with sharper verse phrasing; vocoder effects on every line in chorus, echoed vocal tails on key phrases, controlled electronic layering; 80 BPM, steady midtempo pulse with spacious breakdown dynamics

[Verse 1]
I cut your puppet strings around my heart.
Blocked your number and went on with my life.
You got mad when I wouldn't play the part.
Thought you knew me better than I know myself.
You called me cold, distant, and calculated.
Incapable of loving anyone but myself.
I watched your assumptions get all elevated.
And left our relationship for my health

Chorus:
And you're right about me, oh you're right about me!
Made me the villain a little too easily
Oh, you hit the mark with such surgical grace
The ice in your eyes and the look on your face
You tried so hard to make me a ghost 
Yeah, you’re right about me—and that’s what hurts the most

["a ghost" echoed]

[Verse 2:]
You made a little box for me when we met
Made from spare parts from all those broken hearts
You thought I'd beg for you like all the rest
But you didn't count on my self-respect
You were only after things that lift your status
All I wanted was someone wh enjoyed my company
 It all fell apart, you posted everything about us
And said I couldn't handle someone like you

[Break - electronic alternative breakdown]

Bridge:
Maybe I’m a mess, maybe I’m a masterpiece
You never wanted to see what was beneath
