[Verse 1]
I'm sorry that your dad is dead
I hope you amend it
I think I've lost a lot of my friends
Through belief that I'm an instrument
Well fuck me if you must then
Treat me like an old friend
I can't exist within my own head
So I insist on haunting your bed
If you could only hear what I said
You'd see

[Chorus]
I'm not scared (Anymore, no)
I'm not scared
I'm not scared
I'm not scared
I'm not scared
I'm not scared

[Verse 2]
Spin car 'round, push your head down, down, down
And smash into the ground with you
There's been a piece of glass found and a terrible sound, sound
What if what they're saying is true?
Oh, I prefer it in your bed; television set

[Chorus]
I'm not scared
I'm not scared
I'm not scared
I'm not scared
I'm not scared
I'm not scared

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.
