Hide And Seek In The Dark

[Verse 1]
Hide and seek
Hide and seek in the dark
Count to ten
Hear the drum of your heart
Breathing sweet
Like a cherry on glass
Every step
Leaves a trail from your past
[Pre-Chorus]
You look over your shoulder
But I’m already there
Cotton-candy on your tongue
Poison tucked in the center
[Chorus]
Soon I will possess your heart
Wrap it in ribbons
Tear it apart
This was fun
Don’t try to run
You were always mine to own
Sugar on the blade
Skin and bone
You will never be alone
[Verse 2]
Soft glow
From the screen in your hand
Every scroll
Is a stitch in my plan
Say my name
In the dark like a dare
Turn around
Taste the frost in the air
[Pre-Chorus]
You can change all your passwords
You can change all your clothes
But I live between your thoughts
In the cracks you don’t show
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[laughing under breath]
Hide again
Go on
Pretend
I count slow
You still descend
Every door you slam just sings my song
Every shadow hums
“you belong”
[low vocal register]
You belong
You belong
[Chorus]

pop, Glossy dark-pop with candy-coated synth plucks over a pulsing low end, midtempo. Female vocals start close and intimate, then bloom into a wide, multi-layered chorus with sugary top harmonies over a sinister bass line. Subtle vocal chops and reverse swells in the turnarounds; final chorus pushes with extra ad-libs and a lifted key feel.
