[Intro - Clean Pop Punk Guitar Riff, Light Reverb, Soft Grunge Chord Undercurrent]
Are you just pulling my heartstrings?
Or are you actually into me?
I can’t tell if this feeling’s real
Or just a trick of the melody
[Verse 1 - Melodic Emo Rap Flow over Pop Punk Palm Mutes, Raspy Male Vocal Delivery]
Your eyes catch mine, then they slide away
Like a sunrise fading halfway
We laugh at nothing, but it feels like more
A secret I’m not ready to ignore
[Pre-Chorus - Soft Grunge Guitar Swell, Snare Roll Build, Raspy Vocals with Breath Catch]
And I’m stuck between
The truth and a dream
Are you playing a scene
Or letting me in?
[Chorus - Catchy Pop Punk Power Chords, Explosive Drums, Raspy Belting Vocals, Post-Emo Harmonics]
Are you just pulling my heartstrings,
For the thrill of the sound?
Or are you standing beside me,
When the lights all go down?
I’m holding on to the echoes,
But the silence won’t speak—
Tell me, are you into me?
[Instrumental Break - Pop Punk Lead Guitar Hook, Explosive Drum Fills, Soft Grunge Chord Texture]
[Verse 2 - Melodic Emo Rap Flow, Clean Guitar with Delay, Raspy Whispered Emphasis on Key Words]
I’ve been here before, in the grey between lines
Where a maybe can hurt worse than no every time
Your smile’s like a song I can’t stop playing
But the words underneath… I don’t know what they’re saying
[Pre-Chorus - Soft Grunge Chord Swell, Tom Drum Build, Raspy Falsetto Drop at Last Line]
And I’m stuck between
The truth and a dream
Are you breaking me down
Or setting me free?
[Chorus - Full Pop Punk Wall of Sound, Explosive Kick/Snare, Post-Emo Melodic Lead Guitar, Raspy Belt]
Are you just pulling my heartstrings,
For the thrill of the sound?
Or are you standing beside me,
When the lights all go down?
[Bridge - Half-Time Drum Groove, Soft Grunge Riff, Raspy Spoken-Word Rap Delivery, Explosive Drum Re-entry]
If this is a game, then I’m losing the score
If you’re in my life, why do I want more?
I’ll take every note, every high, every low
Just say the word and I’ll finally know
[Outro - Clean Guitar Fade, Cymbal Wash, Raspy Low Register Vocal]
Are you into me…
Or just pulling the strings?
