SOBER – S5 RADIO REMIX
[[Audio Style – AM radio / soft tuning / subtle room tone / slight tape hiss]] Female vocal, intimate and slightly breathy, natural phrasing Soft layered pads, gentle percussive taps, delicate keys Subtle glitch textures, vocal chops/stutters on key words Slow dynamic swells, airy reverb, warm analog filter Wide stereo panning, immersive and nostalgic [[SFX]] AM radio static, soft tuning sweep Tape hiss, faint room tone Soft mechanical clicks, distant ambient hum Subtle glitch/reverb tails Short pauses for effect Light vocal stutter / chopped words

Lyrics
[Intro – AM radio static / slow tuning / faint room tone]
…shhh…
In—the back of—your car…
Call—calling—what you want…
[Verse 1 – soft tape hiss / gentle keys]
For—you, you say—you want to go far
(Mmm)
In—the back of—the bar
You don't—even look
In my—eyes, now—I’m guessing where—you are
Where—you are
[Pre-Chorus – airy chord swell / subtle reverb]
Baby, when—you’re faded
You make—it—complicated
[Chorus – soft layered pads / glitch textures]
You, you—only want—me when—you’re sober
You only—want me—when it’s over
You, you—only want—me when—you’re sober
You, you only—want me—when they’re all gone
If you’re—messed up—then I’m all—wrong
No—composure
You, you—only want—me when—you’re sober
(When—you’re sober)
(When—you’re sober)
(You only—want me—when you’re sober)
[Verse 2 – delicate pads / light percussive taps]
You're—messing with—my head
Don’t—you want me—instead?
You should—want me—out with—you
You and—all your friends
(Ah)
[Pre-Chorus – airy chord swell / soft sidechain]
Baby, when—you’re faded
You make—it—complicated
[Chorus – soft layered pads / subtle glitch textures]
You, you—only want—me when—you’re sober
You only—want me—when it’s over
You, you—only want—me when—you’re sober
You, you only—want me—when they’re all gone
If you’re—messed up—then I’m all—wrong
No—composure
You, you—only want—me when—you’re sober
(When—you’re sober)
(When—you’re sober)
(You only—want me—when you’re sober)
(You only—want me—when you’re sober)
[Outro – tape slowing / soft mechanical stop / gentle reel fade]
When—you’re messed up—then I’m all—wrong
When—you’re messed up—then I’m all—wrong
Baby, you—only want—me when—you’re sober
(You only—want me—when you’re sober)
(You only—want me—when you’re sober)
(You only—want me—when you’re sober)
(You only—want me—when you’re sober)
