[Chorus: Charlotte Lawrence]
Even though the sky is falling down
Don't let me go, don't let me go
Even though the sky is falling down
Don't let me go, don't let me go

[Verse 1: YUNGBLUD]
I don't want to die but I don't want to cry lightnin'
I don't want to put a needle in my eye just to feel things
I don't wanna be a product liability but I don't want to fight
I have never seen the person you are perceiving
But I don't wanna be alone when I stop breathing
We are in the middle, an apocalyptic disaster
So, tell me, what does it matter? Tell me, what does it matter?
They're gonna roll the world up and smoke it all
With all the people sitting in a pack of Marlboro gold
Yeah, no-one knows we're comatose
Right now you are my only hope
Fuck the hype, the life, the world we know
It's only you and me, all the doors are closed
So, hold me close, don't let me go
Let's smoke a cigarette before the world explodes

[Chorus: Charlotte Lawrence with YUNGBLUD]
Even though the sky is falling down
Don't let me go, don't let me go
Even though the sky is falling down
Don't let me go, don't let me go

[Verse 2: YUNGBLUD]
Dying by your side, what a heavenly way to die
Guess that guy's line was right bet he never thought it'd see real life
We are in the middle of a fucked up crazy design
So stand by my side, yeah, stand by my side
They're gonna roll the world up and smoke till late
Like the planet is a gram of the Mary Jane
Don't commemorate, just space you wait
While they're hittin' the red button like it's a video game
It's inevitable, we know it
That they're about to go blow it
Yeah, there's no way to control it
So, we might as well be holding each other

[Chorus: Charlotte Lawrence with YUNGBLUD]
Even though the sky is falling down
Don't let me go, don't let me go, don't let me go
Even though the sky is falling down
Don't let me go, don't let me go, don't let me go
Even though the sky is falling down
Don't let me go, don't let me go
Even though the sky is falling down
Don't let me go, don't let me go (Don't let me go)

[Bridge: Charlotte Lawrence & YUNGBLUD]
Don't let me go-go-go-go-go-go
Don't let me go-go-go-go (Go-go-go-go-go)
Don't let me go-go-go-go-go-go (Go-go-go-go-go)
Don't let me go-go-go-go (Go-go-go-go-go)

[Chorus: Charlotte Lawrence & YUNGBLUD]
Even though the sky is falling down
Don't let me go, don't let me go
Even though the sky is falling down
Don't let me go, don't let me go (Don't let me go)
Even though the sky is falling down
Don't let me go-go-go-go-go-go
Don't let me go, don't let me go
Don't let me go-go-go-go-go-go
Even though the sky is falling down
Don't let me go-go-go-go-go-go
Don't let me go, don't let me go
Don't let me go-go-go-go-go-go
Don't let me go

Dominic Richard Harrison, who performs under the moniker of YUNGBLUD, fuses alternative rock and hip-hop while speaking up on important topics like mental illness and politics. Hailing from Doncaster, England, he cites acts like Arctic Monkeys and Eminem as influences.

Harrison grew up surrounded by music, and in several interviews he mentions that his parents placed a ukulele in his hands within days of his birth. His father owned a guitar shop and his grandfather was part of T. Rex.

Before becoming YUNGBLUD, he performed as Harrison, releasing songs like “Miss Those Days” with an upbeat acoustic flare. In his late teens, Harrison was approached by a record label, and conformed to their expectations hoping for a successful career, but he left the label in favor of making the music he truly wanted to create.
