Charlotte Chipembere’s “Sad Addict” is a bittersweet, melancholy tune that finds the singer reflecting on unrequited love and longing, expressing sadness and regret. Despite knowing she should walk away, she finds herself unable to resist the person her heart desires, even though she knows she’s being treated poorly. The lyrics convey a sense of addiction to the pain of unfulfilled love, with a bittersweet tone throughout.

On the hook, Charlotte sings relatable, self-reflective, and jarring lyrics: “No, I want what I can't have chased the guys that treat me bad. It gets me down, it makes me mad. I think I'm addicted to being sad.”
