Cake and Cookies [Draft 2] (Patreon)

Edit (2024_04_03): I'm making this available to all paid members because the only thing I plan on changing for Draft 3 (to-do) is the last two lines._Better or worse than Draft 1?_[Verse 1]I’m sifting salted sugar, after-hours kitchen hazeFrosted fingertips flit 'long forms in kitchy, crooked waysYour figure growing fuller beneath linen, warm and rising ripeI press this craving deeper ’til my batter starts to stripe[Pre-chorus 1]I’ve got a sweet tooth twisting thick through screamy steamMeasure, fold, and mix it, babe, cuz none escape my schemeYour layers rest just past cloth, beneath a gentle heatWhile I sift cocoa powder, pushing pastry toward its peak[Chorus 1]Cake and cookies, cake and cookiesAll I wanna do is eat cake, make cookiesCake and cookies, cake and cookiesCake and cookies, cake and cookiesAll I wanna do is eat cake, bake cookies[Verse 2]My tongue-tip taps and travels through dough both rich and rawHalf longing lumpy crumbs but half basking in your drawPainted nails pushing patterns deep where sugar merges with the creamWhere I taste hints that hang heavy twixt the seams[Pre-Chorus 2]The oven hums a heady warmth and skin flushes in the bakeYou glaze my pliant layers ’til all my edges shakeMy senses swell and swirl cuz I'm lost in oily streamsFlushed sweetness drips and drizzles through my ragged sugar dreams[Chorus 2]Cake and cookies, cake and cookiesAll I wanna do is eat cake, make cookiesCake and cookies, cake and cookiesCake and cookies, cake and cookiesAll I wanna do is eat cake, bake cookies[Bridge]Dough and dust mark counters, sugar crusts across the tongueThe oven’s dial distorts each phrase into two twisted tonguesFoil rasps and wires hum when custards surely flowAm I feeding basic hunger or kneading towards a dough-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o?[Outro]I’ll frost the edges pinch your wedges clean my plateWe dine on crumb-cut morsels, pushing past a final stateCake and cookies, built in layers by designDegeneracy deftly does devour all my time._For my notes: Cake and Cookies v1_C08_F2_C3A, Draft 2To do for Draft 3: The backing vocals in the last two lines need a redo; make them like the first two lines of the Outro.
