-22. Desire written as dependency, agency handed over.

A narrator renders her attraction entirely through the vocabulary of narcotic dependency, reports that she has released control and that resistance would be futile, and repeatedly assigns the other person responsibility for what has happened to her.

negative_payload. The dependency architecture is not an image inside the song; it IS the song, occupying the opening lines, the pre-chorus, the chorus, the second verse, and the bridge without interruption, and the chorus pairs it each time with the assignment of blame. R1 RUN, AND THIS IS THE DECIDING ANALYSIS: R1 protects hyperbolic romantic language and keeps it in Decent UNLESS the lyrics demonstrate actual loss of self, boundaries, or agency beyond standard devotion language. Tested carefully, because a partner described as intoxicating is among the oldest romantic conventions and would be protected. What moves this past R1 is that the song states the agency loss directly and repeatedly rather than implying it as intensity: control of the wheel is released, thinking straight has stopped, running is declared useless, the addressee is quoted asking to watch her lose control, and the alteration is stated as permanent. That is the demonstrated case R1 carves out, not the protected one.

the named substances are vocabulary, not content. No intoxication occurs anywhere on the page, so Corrupted 2 does NOT fire and this is not a substance song. Swapping the pharmacological nouns for ordinary overwhelm language, the residue is the surrendered agency and the assigned blame, and that residue is what is scored.

- Orange 6 (self-destructive framing adopted as identity): the narrator names herself a fiend and treats the compulsion as what she now is. - Orange 7 (refusal of accountability, external blame): the addressee is told he is to blame, roughly six times, in the chorus that carries the song. - Orange 4, partial: judgment is described as suspended and lines as blurred, presented as the desirable condition. NOTABLY ABSENT, and it holds the placement shallow: no objectification, no contempt, no ego-service, no possession, no cruelty, no actual substance use. The attachment is euphoric and reciprocated, and nobody is mistreated. R16 was run: the quotable harm-signals are the ratified surrender and the assigned blame, which survive the metaphor discount, so the route stands. "Harm: -34. Pervasiveness: pervasive."

The song forecloses internal work explicitly, stating that trying would be useless and locating the cause in the other person. "Transcendence: 0."

Placed against -28 and -42. Stronger than -28: that entry's harm is body-centering inside a flirtation, a matter of lines, whereas here the surrender of agency and the assignment of blame are the song's structure. Weaker than -42: that entry requires self-dehumanization, worth derived from being used or mistreated, and a refusal to self-examine inside a degrading attachment, and here the attachment is mutual and delighted, with no mistreatment on the page and no self-diminishment. Sits between the two, nearer -28. "Precedents: -28, -42" and "Center: -32".

- Saturation: +1. The dependency framing occupies every section without a break. - Resolution: 0. Closes on the same chorus, matching the placements. - Register: +1. Building the whole song from a pharmacological register with named substances is a more committed construction than either placement's vocabulary. - Reach: -1. One narrator and one addressee, narrower than the placements.

The harm axis is pervasive and governs the charge, so the song calibrates at the payload's level and the flag does not apply. "Contamination: none"

No doctrinal framework appears. dogma_referenced=false.

Degraded territory, between -28 and -42 and nearer -28, because the dominant arc presents the loss of one's own judgment as the proof of desire and hands the responsibility for it to someone else.
