we never dated

Some relationships leave you breathless. Others leave you broken. And then there are the ones that never really happened at all but still manage to take up permanent residence in your brain. That's the space Sombr wanders into on "We Never Dated," a slow-burning lament for a romance that never quite made it to the starting line.

Musically, a snarling, blues-drenched guitar riff does most of the heavy lifting. The production is raw - no grand choruses or overcooked arrangements here. This minimalism allows Sombr's lyrics and emotions to take center stage.

Like his earlier singles "Back To Friends" and "Undressed," Sombr wrote "We Never Dated" himself, continuing his unofficial thesis on modern romance: namely, that it's complicated and often one-sided.
