Mutual Obssesion
by ARW3N
Lyrics
[Intro - eerie synth pad, distant female vocal chops, low pulsing 808]
[Verse 1 - intimate, mid-tempo beat, breathy male vocals with light reverb]
I scroll through the night, 2 a.m. glow on my face
Your comment sits there like a hook in my brain
One name in the sea, but it pulls me like tide
I refresh again just to watch you reply
You type with that fire, like you own every frame
I read every letter till the letters feel tame
I post for the likes but the likes feel like air
I post for the girl who is already there
[Pre-Chorus - rising tension, side-chained synths, layered harmonies]
I told myself once it was harmless to peek
Now I know your coffee shop, know the shift that you keep
I trace every story, every pixel you share
While you fall for the version of me on the air
[Chorus - dark pop drop, heavy 808, distorted vocal stacks]
I became the screen you can’t look away from
You became the life I can’t leave alone
You watch every rep, every flex, every pose
I watch where you go when you think no one knows
We’re drowning in blue light, we’re feeding the glow
You crave what I show, I crave what you don’t
Mutual obsession, we both lost control
Now the follower’s followed and she doesn’t know
[Verse 2 - glitchy production, pitched male ad-libs, trap hats]
I learned your commute, the songs in your car
The friends that you text, the places you are
You double-tap hearts while I double the tabs
I know when you sleep, when you wake, when you laugh
I built a whole world just to keep you inside
Every post is a thread pulling tighter each night
You think I’m the hunter, but the hunter’s been caught
I’m the one being watched while I watch what you thought
[Chorus - massive bass, anthemic distorted chorus, wide reverb]
I became the screen you can’t look away from
You became the life I can’t leave alone
You watch every rep, every flex, every pose
I watch where you go when you think no one knows
We’re drowning in blue light, we’re feeding the glow
You crave what I show, I crave what you don’t
Mutual obsession, we both lost control
Now the follower’s followed and she doesn’t know
[Bridge - stripped, piano and distant vocal echo, vulnerable delivery]
I used to want millions
Now I only want one
The one who keeps typing
While I memorize her phone
[Final Chorus - full production, vocal layers breaking, ending on a single dry line]
I became the screen…
You became the life…
We’re both underwater
And we call it the light…
