Jorja Smith Addicted

The few offerings we’ve received from UK singer Jorja Smith since her 2018 debut have left us wondering what direction she’ll be heading next. It’s been nearly three years since the release of Lost & Found, an album that cemented her as a leading voice in a modern era of R&B. This week, she released her latest single, “Addicted,” a melancholic, calming indie-pop tune that seemingly takes on more obscure influences.

The singer said in a press release that “Addicted” is about “focusing on wanting the full attention of someone who’s not giving enough (or any) when they should be.”

The release of “Addicted” arrives shortly after releasing the remix to “Come Over” with Oboy.

Lyrics

[Intro]
Too far in it, too far gone
She knows what’s in it, she knows what’s wrong
She just can’t quit it, her heart’s so numb
Hurts to live it, but worse to run

[Verse 1]
Waits for the nighttime, day’s no fun
Got a call from her brother, said he’s concerned
You lied about your work, and I haven’t seen you in months
There’s no light in your eyes, and she won’t open them

[Chorus]
The hardest thing
You are not addicted to me
I’m the only thing you should need
You should be addicted to me
The hardest thing
I am too selfless to leave
You’re the only thing that I need
You should be addicted to me

[Verse 2]
What life are you living? It can’t really be real
Pushing over limits you can’t even feel
Can we drink just not to care, not care just to drink?
Can’t that be enough and not take too much?

[Chorus]
The hardest thing
You are not addicted to me
I’m the only thing you should need
You should be addicted to me
The hardest thing
I am too selfless to leave
You’re the only thing that I need
You should be addicted to me

[Bridge]
You don’t see what I do
I try to defend you
It’s hard not to offend you
But you’re not mind to tend to
You don’t see what I do
I try to defend you
It’s hard not to offend you
But you’re not mind to tend to

[Chorus]
The hardest thing
You are not addicted to me
I’m the only thing you should need
You should be addicted to me
The hardest thing
I am too selfless to leave
You’re the only thing that I need
You should be addicted to me
