In Tied Up, Khalid and Lauv sing about being emotionally stuck on someone even when the relationship keeps hurting them. The song has that feeling of trying really hard for someone dressing up for them, wanting their approval, hoping things go back to how they used to be but realizing the connection has become uneven and exhausting. Even though they know the relationship is messy and confusing, they can’t fully let go because they’re still emotionally invested and attached. It’s basically about being caught in that cycle where someone keeps pulling you back in, even when it’s messing with your head. It was released on May 8, 2026.

• Khalid - Tied Up (Lyrics) ft. Lauv

[Verse 1: Khalid & Lauv]
I put my best shirt on for you
But it doesn't even matter
Am I enough for you, my dear?
As I fall into your pattern

[Pre-Chorus: Lauv]
Swear you didn't mean it, to cover up the hurt
Love me and you leave me, then you pay me dirt
But all I ever needed is a chance I never got
We used to be so even, now we're not

[Chorus: Khalid & Lauv]
Oh, there I go again
So invested, I'm tied up to you, tied up to you
I only make a mess of my head
Especially whеn I'm tied up to you, tied up to you

[Post-Chorus: Lauv]
To you, to you (Oh, I'm tied up, oh, I'm tiеd up)
To you, to you (Oh, I'm tied up, oh, I'm tied up)

[Verse 2: Lauv]
Never imagined a love so catastrophic (Love so catastrophic)
Wait till our heaven, we burn down like a comet (We burn down like a comet)
Thought I'd be your next man, we had a spark and we lost it (We lost it)
Used to be my best friend, now friendship isn't an option

[Pre-Chorus: Khalid]
Swear you didn't mean it, to cover up the hurt
Love me and you leave me, then you pay me dirt
All I ever needed is a chance I never got
We used to be so even, now we're not

[Chorus: Khalid]
Oh, there I go again
So invested, I'm tied up to you, tied up to you
I only make a mess of my head
Especially when I'm tied up to you, tied up to you

[Post-Chorus: Lauv]
To you, to you (Oh, I'm tied up, oh, I'm tied up)
To you, to you (Oh, I'm tied up, oh, I'm tied up)

[Bridge: Lauv]
I put my best shirt on for you
But it doesn't even matter
Am I enough for you, my dear?
As I fall into your pattern

[Chorus: Khalid]
Oh, there I go again
So invested, I'm tied up to you, tied up to you
I only make a mess of my head
Especially when I'm tied up to you, tied up to you
[Post-Chorus: Lauv]
To you, to you (Oh, I'm tied up, oh, I'm tied up)
To you, to you (Oh, I'm tied up, oh, I'm tied up)
