Seemingly a catchy folk/pop song in it's opening, it's not long before Addicted turns the genre on its head into some sort of slow-motion Post-RnB chorus dripping with duality between pleasure and addiction. Yellowitz' singer-songwriter style is distinctive in that it is is about pleasure, addiction, queerness, gender and identity.

Addicted

The ego grows like Ivy
All of my heroes turn to enemies
Shiny giants block the skies above
Busy flightpaths all the way to the stars

Don’t wanna be jealous of the people I love
Putting you on a pedestal made of thorns
I'm waiting for the old me, to walk in beside me
Bask in the beauty of your wonders my love 

The greenest of villains
They never realise they're in heaven
We were lions leading the blessed and cursed
Now I'm left waiting for my turn

Don’t wanna be jealous of the people I love
Putting you on a pedestal made of thorns
I'm waiting for the old me, to walk in beside me
Bask in the beauty of your wonders my love
