The first two verses coincide, with similar words, and similar endings. In the third verse they finally find their “brutal heart” they were trying to find all night, and they find themselves trying to turn the night around.

While on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Cameron confirmed the collaboration with Diplo. It was offically announced on March 30, by Cameron, and Diplo. The release date was confirmed on April 5, by a trailer. Diplo and Cameron were in the studio on January 25, 2023, it is possible this session brought this track.

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Dove Cameron]
Are you the brutal heart?
Are you the brutal heart that I’ve been lookin’ for?
‘Cause if you’re lookin’ for love, you can look for that door
Hearts
Hearts that break the night in two
And arms that can hold you, that’s true

[Chorus: Dove Cameron & Johnny Blue Skies]
So use me
So use me

[Verse 2: Johnny Blue Skies]
I don’t mind at all
I don’t mind that you only call me when you want
And I’m just glad you want me at all
And hearts
Hearts that break the night in two
And arms that can hold you, that’s true

[Chorus: Dove Cameron & Johnny Blue Skies]
So use me
So use me

[Verse 3: Dove Cameron, Both, Johnny Blue Skies]
Are we brutal hearts?
Are we brutal hearts that break the night in two?
‘Cause I just want this night with you
I don’t like the man (No, I don’t likе the man)
I don’t like the man that I am (You arе)
‘Cause I just want this night with you
So let’s take this night from black to blue
So let’s take this night from black to blue

[Chorus: Dove Cameron & Johnny Blue Skies, Dove Cameron]
So use me
So use me
(Hey)

[Post-Chorus: Johnny Blue Skies]
Use me
Use me
