[Intro | synth drone, low and humming. a single, distorted guitar scratch, then a drum kick cutting through static.] [Verse 1] You got that look like you already know What I sound like when I forget to be careful I’m not trying to be subtle But you make subtle feel like a waste of time Your fingers on the edge of the counter Mine on the edge of something I can’t name yet I don’t need to spell it out You’re already reading the letters I haven’t written [Pre-Chorus] I’ve been clean my whole life And I’m so fucking tired of it [Chorus – backing harmonies Mira and Ess layered] I wanna get dirty Not the kind you wash off The kind that stays under your nails The kind that makes you forget your own name Dirty like a secret you can’t keep Like a promise you break on purpose Dirty like the shit they told me not to want And I want it I want you And I’m so fucking done pretending I don’t (“Dirty… so fucking done…”) [Verse 2] You laugh at the wrong times And I love it You say the thing everyone’s thinking And I fucking love it I spent years learning how to be palatable Bland enough to swallow, quiet enough to ignore And you just showed up with your sharp edges And said “this seat taken?” like you already knew the answer [Pre-Chorus] I want my hands where they told me not to put them I want your mouth where it doesn’t belong I want to be the kind of wrong That feels right for once [Chorus – backing harmonies Mira and Ess layered] I wanna get dirty Not the kind you wash off The kind that stays under your nails The kind that makes you forget your own name Dirty like a secret you can’t keep Like a promise you break on purpose Dirty like the shit they told me not to want And I want it I want you And I’m so fucking done pretending I don’t (“Dirty… so fucking done…”) [Bridge| drums drop, synth holds, guitar feedback breathing] They said be clean, be quiet, be good I said fuck that They said be careful, be small, be nothing I said watch me I’m not asking for permission anymore I’m not asking for a fucking thing I’m taking what I want And what I want is dirty [Final Chorus – backing harmonies Mira and Ess layered, swelling, full lift ] I wanna get dirty Not the kind you wash off The kind that stays under your nails The kind that makes you forget your own name Dirty like a secret you can’t keep Like a promise you break on purpose Dirty like the shit they told me not to want And I want it I want you And I’m so fucking done pretending I’m so fucking done (“Dirty… so fucking done… I want you…”) [Outro | synth fades, drum kick slows to heartbeat, close-mic whisper] Dirty. Fucking finally. [static, then fade to silence.]
