Lyrics

[00:10.07] Sleazin' and teasin', I'm sittin' on him
[00:12.65] All of my diamonds are drippin' on him
[00:15.03] I met him at the bar, it was 12 or somethin'
[00:17.65] I ordered two more wines, 'cause tonight, I want him
[00:20.10] A little context if you care to listen
[00:22.28] I find myself in a - position
[00:24.75] The man that I love sat me down last night
[00:27.40] And he told me that it's over, dumb decision
[00:29.84] And I don't wanna feel how my heart is rippin'
[00:32.28] In fact, I don't wanna feel, so I stick to sippin'
[00:34.72] And I'm out on the town with a simple mission
[00:37.06] In my little black dress, and this - is sittin'
[00:39.66] Just a heart broke -, high heels, six inch
[00:42.06] In the back of the nightclub, sippin' champagne
[00:44.83] I don't trust any of these - I'm with
[00:47.35] In the back of the taxi, sniffin' -
[00:49.83] Calls, drunk texts, drunk tears, drunk sex
[00:52.32] I was lookin' for a man who was on the same page
[00:54.75] Now it's back to the intro, back to the bar
[00:57.50] To the Bentley, to the hotel, to my old ways
[01:00.51] 'Cause I don't wanna feel how I did last night
[01:06.31] I don't wanna feel how I did last night
[01:10.03] Doctor, doctor, anything, please
[01:12.34] Doctor, doctor, have mercy on me, take this pain away
[01:16.69] You're asking me my symptoms, doctor, I don't wanna feel
[01:19.89] Toke this - how I'm blowin' this steam
[01:22.57] Back to my ways like 2019
[01:24.66] Not 24 hours since my ex did dead it
[01:27.01] I got a new man on me, it's about to get sweaty
[01:30.04] Last night really was the cherry on the cake
[01:32.24] Been some dark days lately and I'm finding it crippling
[01:35.07] Excuse my state, I'm as high as your hopes
[01:37.29] That you'll make it to my bed, get me hot and sizzling
[01:39.98] If I take a step back to see the glass half full
[01:42.21] At least it's the Prada two-piece that I'm trippin' in
[01:45.69] And I'm already actin' like a -, know what I mean?
[01:48.56] So you might as well stick it in
[01:49.84] Just a heart broke -, high heels, six inch
[01:52.29] In the back of the nightclub, sippin' champagne
[01:55.19] I don't trust any of these - I'm with
[01:57.03] In the back of the taxi, sniffin' -
[01:59.70] Calls, drunk texts, drunk tears, drunk sex
[02:02.36] I was lookin' for a man who was on the same page
[02:04.89] Now it's back to the intro, back to the bar
[02:07.27] To the Bentley, to the hotel, to my old ways
[02:10.60] 'Cause I don't wanna feel how I did last night
[02:16.05] I don't wanna feel how I did last night
[02:19.90] Doctor, doctor, anything, please
[02:22.31] Doctor, doctor, have mercy on me, take this pain away
[02:26.90] You're asking me my symptoms, doctor, I don't wanna feel, mm (what?)
[02:31.01] 'Cause I don't wanna feel like I felt last night
[02:36.32] I don't wanna feel like I felt last night
[02:40.81] Be at peace with the things you can't change (last night)
[02:44.33] I'll be naked when I leave and I was naked when I came, yeah
[02:50.36] Out of reach, out of touch, too numb, I don't feel no way
[02:55.01] Toast up, so what? Street small, but it go both ways
[03:00.53] So you'll run, yeah, but you'll never escape
[03:05.53] Sunset in the maze (you're asking me my symptoms, doctor, I don't wanna feel)
[03:11.05] I don't wanna feel how I did last night
[03:16.32] I don't wanna feel how I did last night, oh
[03:20.06] Doctor, doctor, anything, please
[03:22.41] Doctor, doctor, have mercy on me
[03:26.59] You're asking me my symptoms, doctor, I don't wanna feel
[03:31.06] I don't wanna feel how I did last night
[03:36.18] I don't wanna feel how I did last night
[03:42.19] I don't wanna feel how I did last night
[03:46.21] 
[04:04.06] Mm, lipstick smudged like modern art
[04:07.25] I don't know where the - I am or who's drivin' the - car
[04:10.04] Speedin' down the highway, sippin'
[04:12.15] Mixin' - with the liquor 'cah - these feelings
[04:14.54] I left everyone I love on read (uh-huh)
[04:17.19] Spilling secrets to the stranger in my bed (uh-huh)
[04:19.35] I remember nothing, so there's nothing to regret (uh-huh)
[04:21.71] Other than this 4-4 kick drum poundin' in my head (mm)
[04:24.16]
