Description
A darkly alluring pop song about forbidden desires and the addictive thrill of secrecy. 'Voice Note (Delete This)' explores the tension between resisting temptation and succumbing to its magnetic pull, all delivered with intimate, breathy vocals and a pulsating electronic beat. It captures the modern struggle of digital intimacy and the ephemeral nature of hidden messages, questioning whether something truly disappears when deleted, or if it lingers in the echoes of memory and longing.
Lyrics
Intro —beep— you up? Verse 1 It’s two-oh-nine, I’m outside, streetlight on my throat, Your name lights up like a match I shouldn’t hold. You said “don’t call,” so I didn’t—left a note, In the place your secrets live—right here in your phone. Turn me up slow, keep it close to your skin, I talk in low sins you keep letting in. If silence is holy, I’ll break it like this— Say your name once and it tastes like risk. Pre-Chorus Don’t put me on speaker, I’m not for the room, This is for headphones, lights off, you. If gravity’s real, let it pull you here, Breathe on the screen till I feel you near. Chorus Voice note—delete this. Play me where you keep your weakness. Let my low ring reckless, Shake your bones like I mean it. Say you won’t keep it— Still you replay every secret kiss. I know you’ll save it, But voice note—delete this. Post-Chorus De-le—lete this… (this this) De—de—delete this… (good) Verse 2 I’m in your hall, barefoot, echo and heat, You’re in that shirt that kills all my sleep. If mercy’s a language, I’m speaking in teeth, Your pulse says “closer” while your rules say “leave.” Pull me through the door with a guilty grin, You hate how I start and you love how I end. If virtue’s a playlist, skip to track sin— I sing in a key that you feel in your ribs. Pre-Chorus Don’t put me on speaker, this stays between us, Mouth to the mic like a private Venus. If gravity’s real, let it tip your glass, Play me at full when the neighbors pass. Chorus Voice note—delete this. Play me where you keep your weakness. Let my low ring reckless, Shake your bones like I mean it. Say you won’t keep it— Still you replay what your mouth won’t admit. I know you’ll save it, But voice note—delete this. Bridge Spell your yes on my collarbone, Unsay no in a softer tone. If this is wrong, write it twice in red, Hit send again, then hold your breath. And when you can't, I'll break it down again Drop (good—good—good—feel so good—) Final Chorus Voice note—delete this. Play me where you keep your weakness. Let my low ring reckless, Shake your bones like I mean it. Say you won’t keep it— Still you replay what your mouth won’t admit. Call it a secret, But voice note—delete this. Tag …you won’t.
