Major Minor Love Lyrics

[Intro]
I'm so bad, I'm so bad
I'm so bad, I'm so bad
I'm so bad, I'm so bad
I'm so bad, I'm so bad
Across your face


[Verse 1]
You've got my heart beating triple time
A dark rhythm beating just behind
Expose those subtle rewards across your face
I'll lace your thighs with beautiful lies, kidnap your mind
I'll help you find a gentle pain that runs through your veins


[Chorus 1]
It's like the sun with black rays
So bad, I'm so bad, I'm so bad, I'm so bad
I'm so bad, I'm so bad, I'm so bad
I'll win over that side in you
I'll be that pretty noise for you
I'll be that sonic boom
So bad, I'm so bad, I'm so bad, I'm so bad
I'm so bad, I'm so bad, I'm so bad

[Verse 2]
I went over that part of you
Played that pretty line just for you
I'll be that gentle tune (a gentle tune)
You're caught in my bind, a different kind
I'll help you find what's in your mind
I'll be that pain across your face
So much pain

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

“In March 2021, Milosh was accused of grooming and sexual abuse by his ex-wife, Alexa Nikolas. She alleged Milosh began grooming her for a sexual relationship when she was 16 years old and he was 33, and that during their marriage, he assaulted her.”

This song is part of a thinly veiled retelling of the grooming and abuse of Alexa Nikolas by artist Rhye, exhibited on the album. The concept of ‘major’ and ‘minor’ love are a weak musical metaphor but imply the true nature of this relationship: paedophilic, predatory, patriarchal.
