Verse 1
Life is probably a girl
A hardened gambler
You bet a hundred, she bets ten thousand
She cashes them in happily
And I told her so many times
Today is my moment
She ironically smiles at me
Only I get to decide that
Or: That's only for me to decide
Prechorus 1
How stupid I was to believe in love at first sight
In the feeling of euphoria, in continuous free fall
Or: In the feeling of ever-falling continuous euphoria
That's just like falling in love with an appearance
Appearances deceive
Or: Looks can be deceiving
But they create an addiction
Chorus 1
You are my addiction
I'd hide you in the desert
And then I'd search for you
I'd drown you in memories
I'd burn you, I'd forget you
But you're immortal, my addiction
You're my addiction
Verse 2
The strongest drug for a person is another person
I'm full of you and I feel you in every atom
And if I knew how to buy my freedom back
I'd work like a slave in the sun or under the open sky in the rain
I stand naked in front of you and I can't breathe
You burn my clothes, my skin, my flesh
So you can see my heart
Chorus 3
You are my addiction
I'd hide you in the desert
And then I'd search for you
I'd drown you in memories
I'd burn you, I'd forget you
But you're immortal, my addiction
Chorus 4
You are my addiction
I'd hide you in the desert
And then I'd search for you
I'd drown you in memories
I'd burn you, I'd forget you
But you're immortal, my addiction
You're my addiction
You're my addiction

nemuritoareimmortal

Nemuritoare translates to "immortal" or "undying". It's a strong and evocative word that isn't commonly found in everyday song lyrics, making it stand out.

In the context of the song, the artist uses this word to describe his "dependența" (addiction) to a person. He sings, "Dar ești nemuritoare, dependența mea" (But you are immortal, my addiction), emphasizing the powerful and seemingly endless hold this person has over him, despite his attempts to forget them. It highlights the depth and intensity of his emotional struggle.

Mark Stam’s "Dependența Mea" feels like a sky-high roller-coaster where love is both the prize and the most dangerous ride. The Moldovan pop artist compares life to a sly casino dealer who happily takes every emotional bet you place. From the very first glance, he falls hard, only to discover that appearances can be misleading yet irresistibly addictive. Love becomes a powerful drug that seeps into every atom of his being, making him willing to trade anything for one more hit of that euphoric feeling.

The chorus turns this confession into an anthem of obsession. He dreams of hiding his lover in a desert just to search for her again, drowning her in memories, burning and forgetting her, but the bond proves "nemuritoare"—immortal. The song paints a vivid picture of a man standing bare, heart exposed, unable to breathe without the presence of the one who has become his ultimate dependence. "Dependența Mea" is an exhilarating reminder that the strongest drug for a human is another human, and once hooked, the line between pleasure and pain disappears in a haze of passion.
