(Style: Indie folk-pop with fingerpicked acoustic guitar over deep sub pulses and minimal electronic drums; verse keeps it intimate and close-mic, pre-chorus opens with stacked harmonies and a rising low synth, chorus turns dark and cinematic with grunge-leaning guitars, octaved vocal doubles, and delay throws on the title phrase. Final drop strips to bare voice, then returns with haunted full-band weight and a wide, punchy mix., electronic, rock, deep, pop, acoustic, male vocals, grunge, indie folk, minimal, moody)
Verse 1
We were always side by side
Nothing heavy, nothing hard
Just three hearts in the same place
Before I knew who you are
She still leans into your shoulder
Like she always did before
And I hate the way I notice
You looking for me more
Pre-Chorus
This feels wrong
But it feels right too
Chorus
Bittersweet
The way I want you
The way she smiles
Like she doesn’t know the truth
And every time you touch my hand
I forget what I should do
It’s beautiful
and cruel
Bittersweet
falling for you
Verse 2
We still laugh the same together
Still stay out talking late
But now there’s something underneath it
Something we can’t say
Sometimes your eyes find mine
And stay a second too long
And my whole world changes
While everything goes wrong
Pre-Chorus
I should pull away
But I don’t want to
Chorus
Bittersweet
The way you hold me
Like you already know
what this could be
And I know somebody’s heart
will break when this gets through
It’s beautiful
and cruel
Bittersweet
loving you
Bridge
If love is honest
why does this feel hidden?
Why does something so soft
feel forbidden?
Final Chorus
Bittersweet
You next to me
Her laughing in the other room
while you look at me
And I know this kind of love
only ends in wounds
But God…
I still want you.
