Elin - “BITE is a raw, explosive anthem about toxic relationships that thrive on manipulation, feeding off each other until there's nothing left. Born from frustration and witnessing the destructive cycle in the lives of those around me, this track cuts deep into the dark heart of emotional parasites. It's a visceral cry against people who drain joy, love, and energy from everyone they touch—turning even the closest bonds into battlegrounds. BITE isn't just a song; it's a warning. A reminder that sometimes the most dangerous thing in your life isn’t what you expect - the one you call your ‘love’ may also be the thing you let feed off your soul.”
