[Verse 1]
Hiding here in camouflage
When they said that they want me
You love me, you need me
Call it casual sabotage
You think that it's easy

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm tryna get to sleep with the lights on
'Cause I am confused and I'm frightened
I'm tryna get to sleep with the lights on
I don't understand this on my own

[Chorus]
I'm just a messed up kid
With sewn up lips
I can't take this shit
I need to exist

[Verse 2]
Sittin', staring at my watch
I can't tell if it's morning or midday or evening
The pressure got my head in knots
I don't always deceive it

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm tryna get to sleep with the lights on
'Cause I am confused and I'm frightened
I'm tryna get to sleep with the lights on
I don't understand this on my own (I don't understand this on my own)

[Chorus]
I'm just a messed up kid
With sewn up lips
I can't take this shit
I need to exist

[Bridge]
Burn me down till we're nothin' but enemies
And shut me out till we're nothin' but friends
Burn me out till we're nothin' but enemies (Enemies, enemies)
And shut me out till we're nothing but friends (Friends)

[Chorus]
I'm just a messed up kid (I won't ever hide alone)
With sewn up lips (She took my heart and cut it out)
I can't take this shit (Breakin' for the two of us)
I need to exist (Broken until there's only dust)

YUNGBLUD

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.
