Stuck In Reverse

[Intro – fuzzy feedback, single-note guitar plucks, distant chatter] [Verse 1] You said, “Let’s take it slow” So I ran like hell to Mexico Sent postcards just to gloat But I still smell your stupid cologne [Pre-Chorus – loosened rhythm, tambourine shake, vocal overlap] (You said, “Come back”) I was halfway through a cigarette (You said, “Forget it”) Now your name’s carved in the bathroom sink And it’s permanent [Chorus – loud guitars, half-shouted vocals, lo-fi distortion] I’m stuck in reverse And I hate how it hurts But I love it, I love it, I love it (I love it) You’re the worst But you’re still in my words And I hate it, I hate it, I hate it (I hate it) [Instrumental break – offbeat drums, jangly guitar riff, room noise left in] [Verse 2 – slightly mumbled delivery] Your hoodie’s still on my floor I wore it out just to start a war You kissed my friend, I saw But I’m not mad, just kinda bored [Pre-Chorus – more harmony, gang vocals creeping in] (You said, “We’re fine”) I was halfway through a pint of gin (You lied, you lied) I still feel you on my skin [Chorus – full energy, backing vocals messy but catchy] I’m stuck in reverse And I hate how it hurts But I love it, I love it, I love it (I love it) You’re the worst But you’re still in my words And I hate it, I hate it, I hate it (I hate it) [Bridge – drum and bass drop out, slurred vocal] Maybe I should’ve said no But your eyes looked like home And I never trust myself When I’m left alone [Final Chorus – louder, layered with feedback, tambourines, and harmonies] I’m stuck in reverse And I hate how it hurts But I love it, I love it, I love it (I love it) You’re the worst But you’re still in my words And I hate it, I hate it, I hate it (I hate it) [Outro – slow, detuned guitar strums, faint laughter, abrupt end]
