Verse 1

Backseat of the rental truck
Angel and devil, fuck
Scream like heavy metal, rough, love
She's not French but she yelling, oui Do things that I never seen
Long ride like a limousine, yeah

In this verse, Jutes sets the scene for a spontaneous and wild experience. The "backseat of the rental truck" hints at a carefree adventure. The mention of "angel and devil" suggests a push and pull between good and bad, making the relationship feel intense and thrilling. There's a sense of excitement in the chaos, emphasized by the heavy metal comparison. The ride being "long like a limousine" adds a touch of luxury but also a feeling of being trapped in this wild love.

Chorus

I know your love might not come cheap
Best shit don't come for free
But I know them smokey eyes
Have seen some shit I can't believe So I might just marry you tonight
I swear, that's how I'm feeling
'Cause I'm geeking

The chorus really captures the obsession theme. Jutes acknowledges that true love often comes with a price, hinting at the complexities of the relationship. The "smokey eyes" suggest mystery and depth, making him feel drawn in. His willingness to consider marrying her that night shows how deeply he's fallen, emphasizing the impulsive nature of his feelings. This blend of excitement and urgency makes the obsession feel real and alive.

Look in my eyes
Feed my appetite When I'm alone with you
I'm so obsessed
Come take a bite
I'll be your sacrifice Swear I would die for you
I'm so obsessed

In this verse, the obsession becomes more intense. The repeated line "I'm so obsessed" drives home how all-consuming his feelings are.

Come for my neck
It's life or death I'm so obsessed

Bridge

You crawl right into bed
Lips painted bloody red
You come for me, I come for you
That's what I call respect Keep ticking boxes
Put it in a coffin
Dripping sweat, looking blessed, yeah

The bridge brings a more intimate and darker tone. The imagery of "bloody red" lips suggests passion, but it also hints at danger or violence. The line about mutual desire ("You come for me, I come for you") emphasizes reciprocity in their connection, which feels intense and respectful. The "put it in a coffin" line hints at the end of something, possibly a past relationship or the idea that their love could be all-consuming, even to the point of destruction.
