[English]

I'm your girl, right?

Love me hard, it's not my first time

I'm your girl, right?

Heart still aches, you wanna hurt mine

I like your teeth

Could watch you eat for days

A fancy steak

I'll pay

Is that perfume

Or is it you I taste?

Bite the skin

Thin

Tell me what I wanna hear now

Don't make me doubt

Promise me you'll never leave me

Don't let me down

I'm your girl, right?

Love me hard, it's not my first time

I'm your girl, right?

Heart still aches, you wanna hurt mine

Tell me what I wanna hear now

Don't make me doubt

I'm your girl, right?

Love me hard, it's not my first time

Come break me in

All horses win for you

We fuck all night

On Ritalin, 'Lin, 'Lin, 'Lin

Tell me what I wanna hear now

Don't make me doubt

Promise me you'll never leave me

Don't let me down

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

I'm your girl, right?

Love me hard, it's not my first time

I'm your girl, right?

Heart still aches, you wanna hurt mine

Tell me what I wanna hear now

Don't make me doubt

I'm your girl, right?

Love me hard, it's not my first time

I'm your girl

Right?

I'm your girl

Right?
