Picture in my mind Lyrics

[Verse 1: PinkPantheress]
Always noticed something 'bout you
So similar to me, it scares me
I'm impatient, I can't wait to see
What it is that brought you to be
Identical to me, it's frightening
So, why are we together?

[Pre-Chorus: PinkPantheress]
Now when we sometimes do disagree, I like it
It's a sign you don't think like me, that's fine
But sometimes feel some way when you choose to leave
And sometimes, I just can't stand to be with you, that's why

[Chorus: PinkPantheress, PinkPantheress & Sam Gellaitry]
Thought I knew this all along
I had a picture in my mind
So please don't try and call my bluff
I don't think we can try to fight it
So, why are we together?
I knew this all along
I had a picture in my mind
So please don't try and call my bluff


[Post-Chorus: Sam Gellaitry]
We've put both of our hearts on the line
Take what's yours and, darling, I'll take mine
Headfirst inside the deepest dive
I've been waiting for you my whole life

[Verse 2: PinkPantheress]
And when you see me, you walk the other way
I guess it's easy to say you never saw me that day
And with my intent about you, why can't we make amends?
I'll never see you again, I think you're more of a friend


[Pre-Chorus: PinkPantheress]
Now when we sometimes do disagree, I like it
It's a sign you don't think like me, that's fine
Sometimes feel some way when you choose to leave
Sometimes, I just can't stand to be with you, that's why

[Chorus: PinkPantheress, PinkPantheress & Sam Gellaitry]
Thought I knew this all along
I had a picture in my mind
So please don't try and call my bluff
I don't think I can try to fight it
So, why are we together?
Thought I knew this all along
I had a picture in my mind
So please don't try and call my bluff


[Post-Chorus: Sam Gellaitry]
We've put both of our hearts on the line
Take what's yours and, darling, I'll take mine
Headfirst inside the deepest dive
I've been waiting for you my whole life
[Outro: PinkPantheress & Sam Gellaitry, Sam Gellaitry]
I knew this all along
I had a picture in my mind
So please don't try and call my bluff
We've put both of our hearts on the line
Take what's yours and, darling, I'll take mine
Headfirst inside the deepest dive
I've been waiting for you my whole life

Genius Annotation

With the usual tradition of releasing a snippet, this time for nearly 8 months, TikTok start-up PinkPantheress released “Picture in my mind” with surprise feature Sam Gellaitry. The track discusses the original perception of a lover, and the emotions that split them apart when faced with reality.

Despite Sam’s involvement being unknown to the public until release, Sam originally produced and vocally structured the track before being given to Pantheress. This is shown through the demo version released as a bonus on Sam’s “VF VOL II”, showcasing the track without Pantheress' vocals a couple of months later.

The track is currently one of Sam’s biggest hits, showing that PinkPantheress' involvement in the electronic scene is one to be appreciated.
