The 1975 - Facedown Lyrics | gotlyric.com

Released: June 23, 2012

Songwriter: Adam Hann Ross MacDonald George Daniel Matthew Healy

Producer: Jamie Ellis The 1975

Broken heads in hospital beds
Saving ends and pulling your friends
While you're chasing the first line
We made it through
He's black and blue
And facedown
She's rushing in your bed
You take draws to sort your head
And facedown
Then he said, "I lost my head, can you see it?"

The 1975

The 1975 consists of Matthew Healy (vocals/guitar), Adam Hann (lead guitar), George Daniel (drums), and Ross MacDonald (bass), all of whom are from Macclesfield in Cheshire, England. The four band members, now based in Manchester, met in Secondary School and began playing together as teenagers.

The eclectic four-piece band have amorphous drifts between brooding art rock, crisp electronica, dancefloor R&B, and 80’s gloss pop, as well as lead singer Matthew “Matty” Healy’s stories of lust, intoxication, and the unabashed grittiness of modern youth. Common themes in their lyrics range anywhere from dysfunctional relationships, to the failure of modernity.

Throughout 2012, The 1975 released multiple EPs, which sparked the start of their careers. The following year, 2013, their self-titled debut album took the world by storm. From 2014 until 2015 the band’s focus was on touring, though they did reveal through photos on social media that their next sound would reflect a departure from their previously black-and-white aesthetic.
