Regular-Ass Night

(Lana Del Rey – mid-tempo, 70 BPM, reverb-drenched guitar, distant pedal steel, soft kick drum heartbeat, faint ocean waves in the background)[Verse 1]
Couch light flickers like a motel sign dying slow
TV on mute, some old Western no one knows
You laugh at nothing, baby, I’m already lost
Your hair smells like coconut and the smoke of my last
[Pre-Chorus]
I swore I’d keep it clean, no blood on the floor
But you walk to the fridge like you’ve done this before
[Chorus]
This is just a regular-ass night
Streetlight bleeding gold through the blinds
Your leg over mine, heavy like a lie
No stars crashing, no heaven tonight
Just you breathing slow against my chest
Me pretending I’m not already wrecked
This is just a regular-ass night
And it’s enough… God, it’s almost enough
[Verse 2]
Doritos salt still burning cracks on my tongue
I kiss you like the world’s already done
Clothes fall easy, skin sticks in the heat
You sigh like you’re surprised we still meet
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanted something sacred, quiet and true
But your hips roll like a song I can’t undo, baby
[Chorus]
This is just a regular-ass night
Fridge humming low like a lullaby
Fingers tracing circles on my arm
No angels calling, no holy harm
Sweat on your neck in gold razor lines
Throat arched back when you finally sigh
This is just a regular-ass night
And it’s killing me soft… it’s killing me soft
[Verse 3]
Later we lay there, tangled in the dark
Your shampoo mixed with smoke and cheap wine in the jar
You whisper my name like it’s already gone
I hold you tighter, knowing we’re moving on
[Bridge – hushed, almost spoken]
Could’ve loved you clean like a prayer in the dirt
But I wanted you messy, wanted the hurt
Sheets smell like gasoline, skin tastes like rust
No escape, no mercy, just us turning to dust
[Final Chorus – slower, voice cracking gently]
This is just a regular-ass night
Your shampoo still hanging like cigarette smoke
Leg slung over mine like you’re never leaving, baby
No cosmic high, no end in sight
Just you, me, this beat-up couch
Holding us down while the world burns out
This is just a regular-ass night
And God help me… it’s enough
[Outro – fading into reverb and distant waves]
Yeah… it’s enough…
Quiet… real…
Baby…

Enough…Regular-Ass Night

(Lana Del Rey – slow, reverb-soaked, pedal steel weeping, distant traffic hum, faint radio static)[Verse 1]

Couch light flickering like a motel sign at 2 a.m.

TV on mute, some old Western nobody’s watching

You laugh at something stupid, baby, and I’m already gone

Your hair smells like coconut, cheap perfume, and yesterday’s rain  [Pre-Chorus]

I told myself I’d keep it holy, no blood on the sheets

But you walk to the fridge like a slow-motion crime scene

And the room just forgets how to breathe  [Chorus]

This is just a regular-ass night

Streetlight bleeding gold through the blinds like a bad dream

Your leg slung over mine, heavy like a promise I can’t keep

No stars falling, no heaven in sight

Just you breathing slow against my chest

Me pretending I’m not already wrecked

This is just a regular-ass night

And it’s enough… God, it’s almost enough  [Verse 2]

Doritos salt still on your lips, on my tongue

I kiss you like I’m drowning in a swimming pool at dawn

Clothes half-gone, skin sticking where the summer sweat clings

You make that sound—soft, like you’re surprised you’re still alive  [Pre-Chorus]

I wanted something sacred, quiet and true

But your hips roll like a song I can’t undo, baby

And I’m too far gone to care  [Chorus]

This is just a regular-ass night

Fridge humming low like a lullaby from the wrong side of town

Your fingers tracing circles on my arm

No heaven breaking, no hell in sight

Just sweat on your neck in gold stripes

Your throat curved back when you let go tonight

This is just a regular-ass night

And it’s killing me soft… it’s killing me soft  [Bridge – hushed, almost spoken over sparse piano]

I could’ve loved you clean, like a prayer in a roadside chapel

But I wanted you dirty, wanted you there

Tangled in sheets that smell like gasoline and regret

No angels watching, no exit sign glowing

Just the beat of your heart and the weight of the dark  [Final Chorus – slower, voice cracking on the high notes]

This is just a regular-ass night

Your shampoo still hanging in the air like cigarette smoke

Leg slung over mine like you’re staying forever, baby

No cosmic ride, no end in sight

Just you, me, this beat-up couch

Holding us down while the world burns out

This is just a regular-ass night

And God help me… it’s enough  [Outro – fading into reverb and distant ocean waves]

Yeah… it’s enough…

Quiet… real…

Baby…

Enough…
