[Intro] [vocals: breathy, super cute delivery with sinister undertone | 3D panning]] Etch A Sketch Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake me Once the magnet catches you Reduced to graphene, I'm drawn to you Back to blank when I thought I was etched Thought it was perfect, turns out I'm just an X [Verse 1] [vocals: high-pitched breathy monotone lead with layered whispers | intimate close-mic]] You and me is just a line Back to baseline all the time I can almost hear you sayin' I'm out of ideas, you're not in the clear Spinning the wheels, then back in the rear No friend of mine, no matter the price Lend me your ear, and tell me your fear You've taken your stance, no more second chance Still stuck in the trance, I'll ruin your plans I'll ruin your plans, take over the world The message was clear, it got through the girls You know what they say, you only get one Or was it that I don't deserve love? How could I ever trust someone? It's not fair, you're having fun Back to where we started from When it gets too hot, watch 'em dissipate People change on me every day We never see who we truly are, babe [Refrain] [chiptune vocals: layered high-pitched chants] Oh my God, back to the Etch A Sketch Wasted all my time, what the heck [Pre-Chorus] [vocals: breathy escalating whispers building tension] Etch A Sketch Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake [Chorus] [vocals: teasing whisper layers to playful high-pitched belts | ASMR edges]] Etch A Sketch, what's the next catch? Might throw you back, still attached Wound up like a snare drum, baby, all the snare drums, baby You must be dumb, maybe Can't you see you're hurting me? Just sayin' Pulling the string, the pen, the magnet Doomsday is here and I'm ready for it Draw it Draw it Draw it again Shake it Shake it Shake it again Start from scratch with a bigger pen Tilt Tilt Tilt me Rattle Rattle Rattle me Flip Flip Flip me flat Call it a plan Then erase all that [Verse 2] [vocals: raw clipped falsetto with sarcastic edge + glitch stutters]] And all of my mistakes come back in twos Yeah, yeah, I think I'm stuck in deja vu Give me your best pitch Make me your next niche Or something like that And if you're gone I know it's okay You get me back at the end of the day Flip, flip, flip Flip me, rip me, empty the bin Erase, erase, erase All of my friends, all of my kin Dawn, dawn, dawn Not a ray, all grey, inky with sin Win, win, win Tryna convince myself that I win Switch the grip Swim through the air with a fishy fin You're at the gate, you thought you were in Here, we play with a little pen [Bridge Interlude] [rap chant + breakbeat strip down][vocals: slow-spoken sarcastic rap with sleepy detached cadence + layered whispers]] Big idea, wipe it all away Look, a new day, but it's still the same Same old shit, different box, new label Starin' at the walls, needin' a new fable The gods, the universe, they love to play Just another head up in the clouds It don't matter what you drew on me Never was a blueprint, I'ma clear the screen Did I love you? Did you love me? Just one of those things we'll never see You think you're permanent? Babe, you're dust One hard shake, it's like you never was One hard shake, you're gone, it's just [Bridge] [breakdown / music box collapse] [low drones + rising tension + toy percussion] [vocals: vulnerable to aggressive bratty chant, layered with falsetto cries]] Draw it out, give it shape, make it phenomenal Start with an outline, fill it with color Add a foundation, one after another Can’t erase it, must be a date or fate Hand’s getting tired, can't draw straight Always starting over when you turn me over Flip me over Flip me over Flip me over You'll find out when I'm sober Yeah This is how you know you're with a kid An expensive thing that you can barely use The promise that you see of endless possibilities Was just to sell you on it But it's not the truth Sketchy personas, The price of admission's my identity And my cognitive dissonance needs symmetry I could leave in an instant and be the next place All that I would miss is a blank face No control of this place, I know No remorse when I go [Final Chorus] - [full production peak / bright + dark clash] Etch A Sketch Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake Etch A Sketch Flip, flip, flip, flip, flip, flip, flip, flip, flip Etch A Sketch, what's the next catch? Might throw you back, still attached Wound up like a snare drum, baby, all the snare drums, baby Draw it Draw it Draw it again Shake it Shake it Shake it again Start from scratch with a bigger pen Tilt Tilt Tilt me Rattle Rattle Rattle me Flip Flip Flip me flat Call it a plan Then erase all that [Outro] - [music box fade / vocal fade] Gone in a flash, no, this won't last Gone in a flash, no, this won't last Gone in a flash, no, this won't last All you bitches can kiss my ass
