Following a conversation between the three composers about a breakup in which "being heartbroken is almost like feeling psycho", they started working the idea into a song. Having acknowledged Red Velvet's dual sonic concepts, in which "Red" refers to the group's mild and vibrant image, and "Velvet" refers to their smooth R&amp;B side, Scott wanted to "blend the two" concepts together. Opeia recorded a demo version in English that was leaked on the Internet weeks before the song's release; songwriter Kenzie the rewrote the lyrics in Korean with additional arrangement from producer Druski and Yoo Young-jin, the latter of whom co-produced the group's previous single "Bad Boy" in 2018.Musically, "Psycho" has been described as an up-tempo urban song; Tamar Herman of "Billboard" described it as an R&amp;B-pop track with future bass, a "grandiose operatic" instrumental intro with "dramatic" pizzicato strings, "classical" chords and trap beats, squelching synthesizers, which made it the group's seventh single to fall under the "Velvet" concept. According to Scott, the chorus contains the syncopation of hi-hats that is combined with the drum line to maintain the song's pace. It was composed in the key of Eb major with a tempo of 140 beats per minute. The group's vocals span two octaves, from the low note of G3 to the high-note of G5. A slightly different version of the song was used for the music video; the chorus has an additional synth line and the pre-chorus included a string melody, elements that were omitted from the digital and streaming version. The song's lyrics tell the story of a relationship that is "full of ups and downs" in which a couple "fights so much that they appear crazy in the eyes of others but are nonetheless meant for each other" and eventually assure the listener "we're gonna be alright".商業成績.已隱藏部分未翻譯內容，歡迎參與[ 翻譯]。"Psycho" debuted at number two on South Korea's Gaon Digital Chart for the period December 22–28, 2019, the year's final chart; rapper Changmo's "Meteor" blocked it from reaching number one for three consecutive weeks.
