CAKE

[Verse 1] Crumbs on the counter Frosting on your cheek You say “taste this It’s a little bitter” I say “baby That’s just me” You lick the spoon I’m staring At the way you steal my breath You decorate the silence With powdered sugar on my chest (oh) [Chorus] You’re my cake in the morning Sweet on a weekday Layers of trouble Stacked on a cheap plate Every little bite Pulls me in deep Now I got sugar on my sleeve And your name in my teeth You’re my cake You’re my cake I can’t leave [Verse 2] Flour on your fingers You press them to my lips Say “promise you’ll remember Every crumble Every kiss” Timer on the oven But we never hear it ring We’re busy making memories Out of every sticky thing (hey!) [Chorus] You’re my cake in the morning Sweet on a weekday Layers of trouble Stacked on a cheap plate Every little bite Pulls me in deep Now I got sugar on my sleeve And your name in my teeth You’re my cake You’re my cake I can’t leave [Bridge] Cut me a slice Of that careless feeling Frost all the scars Till they look like healing If this is wrong I’ll take the blame Write it in icing Spell my name [Chorus] You’re my cake in the morning Sweet on a weekday Layers of trouble Stacked on a cheap plate Every little bite Pulls me in deep Now I got sugar on my sleeve And your name in my teeth You’re my cake You’re my cake I can’t leave
