Glitter and Sprinkles

(Verse 1)
Candy-colored daydreams, plastic on my tongue
You say you wanna be my friend, but only when it’s fun
Passing notes in homeroom, secrets in a swirl
You want the shine and shimmer, not my shadow world

(Pre-Chorus)
Sugar on your words, but your eyes say “never” (never)
You want my magic, but not me forever (ever)

(Chorus)
Glitter and sprinkles, you want me for the show
Pretty on the surface, but you’ll never know
Painted-on smiles, we’re faking through the day
But I won’t be your cupcake, just to throw away
Glitter and sprinkles, you want me when it’s sweet
But I’m not your topping, I’m more than your treat

(Verse 2)
Plastic tiaras, you love to play pretend (pretend)
Pick me for the party, then ghost me in the end
Mirrorball reflections, you crave my shine
But you can’t taste my darkness, can’t handle mine

(Pre-Chorus)
Cherry on your mood, but you melt so quick (so quick achu)
You want my colors, but not my tricks

(Chorus)
Glitter and sprinkles, you want me for the show
Pretty on the surface, but you’ll never know
Painted-on smiles, we’re faking through the day
But I won’t be your cupcake, just to throw away
Glitter and sprinkles, you want me when it’s sweet
But I’m not your topping, I’m more than your treat

(Bridge)
You want a sugar rush, I want a soul
You want a fairy tale, I want control
Don’t need your frosting, I’ll make my own
Don’t need your crumbs, I’ll build my throne

(Chorus)
Glitter and sprinkles, you want me for the show
Pretty on the surface, but you’ll never know
Painted-on smiles, we’re faking through the day
But I won’t be your cupcake, just to throw away
Glitter and sprinkles, you want me when it’s sweet
But I’m not your topping, I’m more than your treat

(Outro)
So keep your glitter, keep your sprinkles too
I’ll find real magic—don’t need you
