Lyrics for Black Bubblegum

Got so much salt from your lies poured into me You didn't see yourself dead already So full of it with every breath that you breathe But you forget that in your fairy tale, I'm the wolf All this attention got you thinking that you're a queen You think that everything you're doing isn't a dream Long as it feels alright I had gotten frozen by the way you walked By the love that you gave, by that look on your face It's a cover up I know everything I had gotten frozen by the way you walked By the love that you gave, by that look on your face It's a cover up I know everything I know everything You're made for four-letter fame Regret is part of your name It's something you couldn't tell It's what you wanted to feel It's what you're dying to feel Check out your face on the wall, like what you see? I'm sure you see yourself oh-so unique You're just a sucker for the flame of the week But you forget that in your fairy tale, bitch, I'm the wolf All this attention got you thinking you were a queen You thought that everything in life you want should be free Nothing is what you think I had gotten frozen by the way you walked By the love that you gave, by that look on your face It's a cover up I know everything I had gotten frozen by the way you walked By the love that you gave, by that look on your face It's a cover up I know everything I'm your everything I know everything You're made for four-letter fame Regret is part of your name It's something you couldn't tell It's what you wanted to feel It's what you're dying to feel You're made for four-letter fame Regret is part of your name It's something you couldn't tell It's what you wanted to feel It's what you're dying to feel You're made for four-letter fame Regret is part of your name It's something you couldn't tell It's what you wanted You're made for four-letter fame Regret is part of your name It's something you couldn't tell It's what you wanted to feel It's what you're dying to feel You're made for four-letter fame Regret is part of your name It's something you couldn't tell It's what you wanted to feel It's what you're dying to feel
