Verse 1 I smelled your fear the moment you bled on her floor, Human heart, iron spine—I’ve seen it before. She breaks them louder when they still hope, So I drown you in wine, slip the leash on your throat. Don’t glare like you’re not already trapped, This court eats martyrs—I prefer you intact. If I laugh while she watches you shake, It’s because I know exactly what she’ll take. Pre-Chorus She’s listening close to the beat of your heart, So I’ll touch your mind just to tear it apart. You hate me—good. Hate keeps you sharp. Chorus Smile for me, girl, let her think you’re mine, Paint on your skin, hands on your waist, every time. Drink what I give you, don’t let her see— If she smells defiance, you’re dead by morning. You call me cruel, you call me obscene— Good. That lie is the shield standing between you and her teeth. Verse 2 I dance you in filth so she won’t see grace, Let her think I’ve ruined you, body and face. One week a month—yes, the bargain is steep, But it keeps you breathing when she wants you to weep. You snarl when I heal what she lets you break, When I whisper inside you, wake, wake, wake. You don’t trust my hands, my smile, my eyes— You shouldn’t. I survive on prettier lies. Pre-Chorus I don’t save girls. I don’t play fair. I bend the rules until we’re still here. Live now—judge me later on. Chorus Smile for me, girl, let the court believe You’re nothing but entertainment draped on my knee. Curse my name, spit fire, cling to your rage— Just stay alive long enough to escape. You think I enjoy wearing her crown? No. But monsters learn which masks won’t get them drowned. Bridge I won’t be your hero, not under her eye, Heroes rot screaming while tyrants smile. But remember this when the dark starts to thin— I paid for your heartbeat with every sin. Final Chorus (Lower, Controlled) Smile for me, girl, this bargain will scar, You’ll hate my touch long before you know why. If you walk out alive, if you make it through me— Hate me forever. Just don’t die. Not here. Not for her. Not for me. Outro Mask on. Mind sharp. Survive.
