[Verse 1]
Are you tryna torture me or just movin' on?
Postin' pictures with that girl that I guess you want
Ooh (Want), ooh
Now I'm lookin' for your face in the alcohol
Starvin' for your taste, but you never call
Ooh (Call), ooh
[Pre-Chorus]
Uh, it's so pathetic, you don't even get it
God, I'm a mess right now
[Chorus]
I'm desperate to forget you, the desperate things that I do, oh
Get so drunk I don't remember
You and I are not together
Desperate to erase you, I'm dyin' just to hate you, oh
Get so high I can't remember
You and I are done forеver
[Post-Chorus]
I'm desperatе to forget, I'm desperate for you
[Verse 2]
Lookin' for a cure I don't think they sell
While you're out with her, baby, I'm in hell
Ooh, ooh
And I'm startin' to shake, the walls are closin' in
Yeah, I'm startin' to think I won't get over it
Whoa, whoa
[Pre-Chorus]
Uh, it's so pathetic, you don't even get it
God, I'm a mess right now
[Chorus]
I'm desperate to forget you, the desperate things that I do, oh
Get so drunk I don't remember
You and I are not together
Desperate to erase you, I'm dyin' just to hate you, oh
Get so high I can't remember
You and I are done forever
[Post-Chorus]
I'm desperate to forget, I'm desperate for you
[Outro]
Ooh, I'm desperate to forget
Ooh, I'm desperate to forget
Ooh, I'm desperate to forget
Ooh, I'm desperate to forget
Ooh, I'm desperate to forget
Ooh, I'm desperate to forget
Ooh, I'm desperate to forget
Ooh, I'm desperate to forget

I really love “Desperate”. I’m not embarrassed to admit that I have been desperate for someone before. I literally have merch coming out that says “I’m desperate for you”. I’m super excited to perform that and that was super influenced by Robyn and vintage Katy Perry and Lady Gaga vibes.
