Lyric

Sweet on cheap sheets

Morning in the heat

LA light comes through

Like it knows what I need

Last night’s receipts

A dress on the floor

One expensive perfume

Making promises for more

I don’t call it wanting

I just face the view

Sweet on cheap sheets

Soft lie on my skin

I keep buying little futures

Then waking up in this

Sweet on cheap sheets

Gold scent in a small room

I smell like somewhere better

Still reaching for it too

Cold coffee on the counter

Silver cap by the sink

I wear the city lightly

Then wash it off in pink

A rent note by the doorway

Sun across the floor

I wanted something higher

Then wanted something more

I don’t say I’m empty

I just make it look clean

Sweet on cheap sheets

Soft lie on my skin

I keep buying little futures

Then waking up in this

Sweet on cheap sheets

Gold scent in a small room

I smell like somewhere better

Still reaching for it too

If I had the whole life

Would I still need proof

If I got out clean

Would I miss this room
