“Last Night’s Mascara” is Brynn Cartelli’s debut single and lead single off her upcoming debut EP/album.
In August, Brynn revealed through an Instagram Q&A that she had just written the song:
[Verse 1]
That dude I was kissing, nah, he didn't love me
He was on every varsity team
I need a little attention just to forget you
Even though tomorrow no one will remember a thing
[Pre-Chorus]
But now, now
I still don't understand how
[Chorus]
I've got last night's mascara still on my face
I kinda knew that there’d be trouble
But I did it anyway
I swear I used to be innocent
You went to my head
I don't remember how I got here
I don't remember what I said
But I've got last night's mascara
Last night's mascara
Yeah, I still got last night's mascara on somehow
[Verse 2]
I was talking too loud and dancing low
Showing off the curves in summertime skin
I let him touch me like the keys of a piano
And I hoped that you're watching, whoa
[Pre-Chorus]
But now, now
I still don't understand how
[Chorus]
I've got last night's mascara still on my face
I kinda knew that there'd be trouble
But I did it anyway
I swear I used to be innocent
You went to my head
I don't remember how I got here
I don't remember what I said
But I've got last night's mascara
Last night's mascara
[Bridge]
I was falling in love with a feeling
But I was falling down, I didn't feel it
What I did last night, I don't remember
Who caused these tears in my slumber, babe
I woke up with a ringing in my head
I woke up in someone else's bed
They told me it was a night I won't forget, but I forgot it all
I've got proof lying under my eyes
[Chorus]
I've got last night's mascara still on my face
I kinda knew that there’d be trouble
But I did it anyway
I swear I used to be innocent
You went to my head
I don't remember how I got here
I don't remember what I said
But I've got last night's mascara
Last night's mascara
[Outro]
Yeah, I still got last night's mascara on
Yeah, I still got last night's mascara on
Yeah, I still got last night's mascara on somehow
Last Night’s Mascara was written by MoZella & Jesse Shatkin & Brynn Cartelli.
