Thirst Trap Lyrics – Audrey Hobert

Thirst Trap Lyrics Meaning

[Verse 1]
She is realizing that her feelings have made her act differently than usual. She’s feeling suspicious, anxious, and out of control, and she notices that this obsession with someone has pushed her to behave in ways she normally wouldn’t. She’s aware of it but feels it’s because of the other person’s influence.

[Pre-Chorus]
She can’t stop thinking about this person, pacing and staying awake all night. Daily life feels impossible—she can’t focus on reading, writing, or hobbies. She spends time distracted, zoning out, and smoking, constantly wondering what the other person is doing or thinking.

[Chorus]
She is taking selfies to look attractive and constantly changing her appearance in front of the mirror. Her usual fun and relaxed lifestyle has faded, and she feels less confident and cool than she used to be. Her life now revolves around trying to impress this person.

[Verse 2]
The person she likes has changed her completely. Her thoughts revolve around whether they would date her, and even though she believes they might, she’s prepared to face rejection while holding onto hope that they’ll realize she’s worth it.

[Pre-Chorus]
She continues to be consumed by thoughts of this person, spending time high and distracted. Her usual hobbies and focus are gone, replaced by pacing, daydreaming, and trying to feel connected to them even while being distant and vacant in daily life.

[Chorus]
She keeps taking selfies and obsessing over how she looks. Her old routines, like watching movies or news, feel boring compared to her current obsession. She regrets losing her carefree, fun self but can’t stop thinking about how to look appealing.

[Post-Chorus]
Her days are now controlled by this fixation. She wakes up late, constantly checks for messages, and imagines interactions with the person she likes. She feels her old self slipping away and acknowledges that this change is entirely because of them. Despite forgiving the person for any hurt, she can’t forget how deeply they affected her. She understands that part of why they are interested in her is the power they have over her emotions. She reminisces about being fun, confident, and independent, but now she’s trapped in a cycle of self-consciousness, obsession, and carefully curated images, hoping for attention and validation.

[Bridge]
She tries to connect with this person by mimicking them online and imagining their perspective. She feels less exciting and fun than before, admitting she’s changed and lost some of her old self. Still, she dedicates herself to them, capturing photos and staying immersed in this obsession while knowing she will eventually move on.

[Chorus]
She continues taking selfies in the mirror, realizing her looks may not be perfect but finding some reassurance anyway. She reflects on the idea that true beauty isn’t always captured in pictures and imagines the person will regret ignoring her, wishing for a happy ending.

[Outro]
She keeps taking photos and thinking about her obsession repeatedly. The cycle of checking, posing, and hoping for attention dominates her days, showing how much this fixation has taken over her routine and thoughts.
