Melanie Martinez – Cake lyrics
Your skin is warm like an oven
Your kiss is sugary sweet
Your fingers feel like cotton
When you put your arms around me
I feel like I'm just missing
Something whenever you leave
We've got all the ingredients
Except you loving me

And respectfully...

(Chorus)
I'm not a piece of cake
For you to just discard
While you walk away
With the frosting of my heart

So I'm taking back
What's mine, you'll miss

The slice of heaven that
I gave to you last night

You smell just like vanilla
You taste like buttercream
You're filling up my senses
With empty calories

I feel like I'm just missing
Something whenever you leave
We've got all the ingredients
Except you needing me
So respectfully...

(Chorus)
If I am just a piece of cake
I am just a piece of cake
Then, you're just a piece of meat
You're just a piece of meat to me

If I am just a piece of cake
I am just a piece of cake
Then, you're just a piece of meat
You're just a piece of meat to me

(Chorus)

The slice of heaven that I gave
The slice of heaven that I gave to you
The slice of heaven that I gave to you last night

    I think the song cake is talking about how the person that Madeline Martinez loves is treating her like a peice of figurative cake as in he is not intrested in her after a while of "loving her" he leaves her like when you eat cake, for example, once you eat it its gone. So thats how the person treated her kinda like that.
