[Intro - Hazy Confession] [Her breathy whisper opens the track] Mmm… yeah... I been lying to myself for months now... [inhale] Thinking “Brent” was just some nice guy who gave me attention because he had time... [synth creeps in slow as fog] But nah—it's worse than that... He don't even know. [Breathless hum] Mmm… Yeah. I already know how this ends… [Verse 1, Confessional Restraint] He don’t play games—I hate that most about him ’Cause he mean every word he say Say my name slow like prayer on Sundays Like I’m somethin’ sacred… but still far away Phone face down, always respectful That shit ain’t right—that shit feel dangerous ’Cause loyalty shouldn’t hurt this good But here I am misunderstood [Pre-Chorus, Suspended Wanting] I keep distance ’cause I’m supposed to be strong Don’t flirt, don’t touch, barely breathe this long Still when he laugh, my chest cave in That stupid jump I can’t stop namin’ [Chorus, Emotional Hook] I’m just a scientist girl alone in the lab tonight Tryna see if feelings weigh more than right Run tests on a heart so disciplined, tight But I can’t stop wantin’ you though—why? You loyal, yeah, I see it clear That’s what make you disappear [Post-Chorus, Breath & Echo] Ooh… mm Yeah… [Verse 2, Quiet Observation] He talk about her with respect Never complain, never flex That’s when it hit me the hardest I want somethin’ I shouldn’t test I smile cool, keep it polite Play dumb like I’m alright But late nights replay his tone Like I ain’t already gone [Pre-Chorus, Reprise] I don’t cross lines, I don’t try But feelings don’t ask me why [Chorus, Emotional Hook, Layered Vocals] I’m just a scientist girl alone in the lab tonight Tryna see if feelings weigh more than right Run tests on a heart so disciplined, tight But I can’t stop wantin’ you though—why? You loyal, yeah, I see it clear That’s what make you disappear [Verse 3, The Unspoken Thing] He never ask for love, never beg, never plead Just shows up on time, hands clean, no need And that make me scream in my pillow at three Like who still loves quiet? Who still just be? No rings, no scenes, no flash, no show Just him being him and me losing sleep though It ain’t fair how decent men tear me apart Why my heart beat harder when he say “goodnight” like it’s art? (meant somethin’) [Pre-Chorus, The Pull] I don’t touch him, never crossed that line But I crave how his hands look steady when he sign How his voice stay calm when the whole room loud Like love don’t phase him, don’t slow him down And fuck—why that undo me? [Higher note] (WHY ME?) [Chorus, Full] I’m just a scientist girl alone in the lab tonight Tryna see if feelings weigh more than right Run tests on a heart so disciplined, tight But I can’t stop wantin’ you though—why? You loyal, yeah, I see it clear That’s what make you disappear [Verse 4, The Nightmare Scenario] What if one day he look at me aware? Not wrong, just knowing how long I stare Notice how I linger, how I time my steps How I “accidentally” bump into him like a mess What if he smile, drop truth on beat? Say “You want me?” right in the street No warning, no build, mic-drop proof And I know my answer—yeah, I do “Yes.” No pause, no cool, no room Just shame knowing loyalty true That’s my hell, that’s my view Wanting someone who’d never choose wrong—even you [Verse 5, The Late-Night Replay] I lay in bed replaying his tone “Good morning” texts, how he say my name slow Count dumb things like smiles per week Compare today to last—pathetic, I see But then I remember the door he held Three seconds too long and I’m not well God—why basic kindness wreck me so? [Higher note] (WHY IS BEING KIND SO SEXY?) [Bridge, The Ultimate Twist] Cruelest part? He don’t even know While I dissect every glance he throw Accidental touch, I build a case Lovesick detective losing my place But if he ever said, “I think too sometimes” We’d both be screwed crossing that line [Final Chorus, Resigned Power] I’m just a scientist girl alone in the lab tonight Knowing damn well wrong from right Run tests on a heart that choose what’s right Even if it cost me you tonight You loyal, yeah, I see it clear That’s why I disappear [Outro, The Unspoken Choice] Maybe one day I’ll tell him the truth But love like this tear loyalty loose So I stay quiet, smile through the ache Some things too pure to let me break (Let it go…) [End]
