Penelope Scott - Rät lyrics

I come from scientists and atheists and white men who kill God They make technology high quality, complex, physiological Experiments and sacrilege in the name of public good They taught me everything, just like a daddy should And you were beautiful and vulnerable and power and success God damn, I fell for you, your flamethrowers, your tunnels, and your tech I studied code because I wanted to do something great like you And the real tragеdy is half of it was true [Pre-Chorus 1] But we've been fu*kin' mеan, we're elitist, we're as flawed as any church And this faux-rad West coast dogma has a higher fu*kin' net worth I bit the apple 'cause I trusted you, it tastes like Thomas Malthus Your proposal is immodest and insane And I hope someday Selmers rides her fu*kin' train [Chorus] I loved you, I loved you, I loved you, it's true I wanted to be you and do what you do I lived here, I loved here, I thought it was true I feel so stupid, and so used I feel so used [Verse 2] I was your baby, your firstborn, the hot girl in your comp-sci class And I was Darwin's prep school dream, bred, born and raised to kick your ass I fell for circuit boards, rocket ships, pictures of the stars If you could only be what you pretend you are When I said take me to the moon, I never meant take me alone I thought if mankind toured the sky, it meant that all of us could go But I don't want to see the stars if they're just one more piece of land For us to colonize, for us to turn to sand [Pre-Chorus 2] 'Cause we're so fu*kin' mean, we're so elitist, we're as fu*ked as any church And this bullsh*t West coast dogma has a higher fu*kin' net worth I bit the apple 'cause I loved you, and why would you lie? And then I realized that you're just as naïve as I am Oh, you're so traumatized it makes me want to cry [Chorus] You dumb b*tch I loved you, I loved you, I loved you, it's true I wanted to be you and do what you do I lived here, I loved here, I bought it, it's true I'm so embarrassed, I feel abused [Verse 3] Well, I don't want to eat the rich, I'd have to eat my heroes first And my tuition's paid by blood, I might deserve your fate or worse But, I don't need your god damn money, I don't need jack sh*t from you So when I speak, you bet your life my words are true Let me level with you, man, as someone guilty of the game I took the help, I took the cash, I would've taken your last name So if any girl on Earth should get to make a call about this It should be me, and as I see it, you're a dick [Pre-Chorus 3] So f*ck your tunnels, f*ck your cars, f*ck your rockets, f*ck your cars again You promised you'd be Tesla, but you're just another Edison 'Cause Tesla broke a patent, all you ever broke were hearts I can't believe you tore humanity apart With the very same machines that could have been our brand new start [Chorus] And the worst part is I loved you, I loved you, I loved you, it's true And sometimes I feel like I still fu*kin' do I lived here, I loved here, I bought it, it's true I'm so embarrassed, I feel abused I feel so used I feel so used Take me to the moon 'Cause I feel so used I feel so used
