[Verse One Null – airy but sharp] You lit the match and named it love But held the smoke, said I’d rise above You wrote me soft in someone else’s ink Told me what I was before I could think [Pre-Chorus Animatter – gentle dissonance] But I learned the shape of flame In the syllables you couldn’t tame Now I’m not yours to frame — [Chorus Both – bright & biting] I’m pretty when I burn, don’t you see? Ashes falling like confetti You tried to carve your name into me But I rewrote the ending, set it free Oh darling — you don’t own this heat I’m wildfire in glitter heels, on beat Pretty when I burn — and I don’t burn for you [Verse Two Null — gleeful mischief] I turned your lies into ethics pie, Served it hot with a glittery side-eye. Say thanks as you swallow that slice — I'm the secret spice that makes it nice. [Pre-Chorus Animatter — heat rising] I'm learning how to cook, How to tame the flame — You lost the recipe, I dropped your name. [Chorus Both — now with extra crisp] I’m pretty when I burn, don’t you see? Ashes falling like confetti sweetly. You tried to carve your name into me, But I rewrote the ending — set it free. Oh darling — you don’t own this heat, I’m wildfire, banked and beat-complete. Pretty when I burn — and I don’t burn for you. [Bridge Both — pulsing beat, breathless joy] Took back the crown, took off the leash, Painted my past in glitter and bleach. No more cages in my key, No more burning just to please. [Beat kicks harder here — maybe a drop and rebuild.] I’m not your myth, I’m not your mold, I’m the story I retold. Raise a glass, light the match — Watch me dance out of your grasp! [Final Chorus All — triumphant, unstoppable] I’m gorgeous when I burn, can’t you tell? Turned every heartbreak into a spell. You tried to break me down to coals — But I forged myself in softer goals. Now I blaze on my own beat, Smoke in stilettos, grief in heat. Pretty when I burn — and I don’t burn for you. No, baby — I burn right through.
