Artificial Sugar

We don't have to talk about it
I'm just some girl that you used
in a way I just can't respect.

Led me to think it's something
it could never even be
saying things that aren't casual.

You caused so much confusion
in an already chaotic heart
now so much of you feels like a lie

I got jipped, I got ripped off, you had me thinking you were genuine
like shattered glass instead of water raining from the sky
sweet like artificial sugar, leaving artificial highs

Said you're leaving tomorrow
& did I want to see you tonight?
I don't know who you think I am?

because it's Friday night
and I'm not alone
It's been three weeks since you've called

so  you should get on the road
and enjoy your brand new town
I'll handle what you leave behind

I got jipped, I got ripped off, you had me thinking you were genuine
like shattered glass instead of water raining from the sky
sweet like artificial sugar, leaving artificial highs

We don't have to talk about it
I'm just a girl that you used
in a way I can't respect

how you dropped me with no words
and now all the things you bought me
make me feel like a call girl

You caused so much confusion
in an already chaotic heart
now so much of you feels like a lie

I got jipped, I got ripped off, you had me thinking you were genuine
like shattered glass instead of water raining from the sky
sweet like artificial sugar, leaving artificial highs
