Pretty Little Nothing

Pretty Little Nothing lyrics

Verse 1

I’m alone in a rented car at noon
On an empty desert highway
Money’s new
And the high is gone

The dashboard’s still
Like it knows me
I laugh once
Then I don’t

Pre-Chorus

I can hear my name
In the dust
I can feel it slip
Through my teeth

No hurry
No mercy
Just me
And the heat

Chorus

Pretty little nothing
Pretty little nothing
I don’t stay
When the room turns mean

Pretty little nothing
Pretty little nothing
I leave first
Before it leaves me

Verse 2

Your voice was a coin
In a bottomless well
Pretty to spend
Gone by morning

Now the mile markers
Blur like an alibi
I let the silence
Do the talking

String-slow ache
Under my skin
Same old trick
Just dressed up again

Pre-Chorus

I can hear my name
In the dust
I can feel it slip
Through my teeth

No hurry
No mercy
Just me
And the heat

Chorus

Pretty little nothing
Pretty little nothing
I don’t stay
When the room turns mean

Pretty little nothing
Pretty little nothing
I leave first
Before it leaves me

Bridge

I was never yours
I was never a prayer
Just a pretty shape
You could lose in the air

Let the last laugh fade
Let it fall apart
I’m already gone
Before the dark

Pretty little nothing
Pretty little nothing
I don’t stay
When the room turns mean

Pretty little nothing
Pretty little nothing
I leave first
Before it leaves me

Pretty little nothing
Pretty little nothing
I’m still here
But I’m hard to keep
