[Intro]
What?!

[Verse 1]
Noughts and crosses, fundamental losses
Life’s a big game for the big bosses
I’m just caught up in a paper chase
Credit claim, numbers game
How many plays did you get today?
I’m sorry mate, what’s your name?
It’s funny when they chuckling, say “Kid, you’re on your own”
‘Cause this music is too different
Whilst you’re choking on a chicken bone
Sniffing all the same old stuff, I know
Designer girl (Let’s talk about love)
Fuck off
It’s like I’m underwater, but I don’t care now if I drown
‘Cause I heard you get a buzz before the lights go out

[Chorus]
I’m in a fishtank on my own
So I’m sorry that I can’t get to the phone
But I know I'll be okay
'Cause we’re all going up to Heaven anyway
And you’re all stood watching me
And you’re keeping all your aces up your sleeve
But I know I’ll be okay
‘Cause we’re all going up to Heaven anyway
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
We’re going up to heaven anyway
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]
I don’t see the logic, systematic gin and tonic
[?]
Better pick up ‘cause your boss is calling
Getting boring, you’ve been talking
Same talk you talk every morning
[?] til night, tell the kids what they like
And now it’s time to get the kid another remedy
'Cause you’re feeling his head with anxiety
And you’re putting up a gun to the self-belief
When you turn to him, when you talk to me

[Chorus]
I’m in a fishtank on my own
So I’m sorry that I can’t get to the phone
But I know I'll be okay
'Cause we’re all going up to Heaven anyway
And you’re all stood watching me
And you’re keeping all your aces up your sleeve
But I know I’ll be okay
‘Cause we’re all going up to Heaven anyway
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
We’re all going up to Heaven anyway
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Bridge]
Lock me up and throw away the key
‘Cause you can’t really call this free
Lock me up and throw away the key
’Cause you can’t really call this free

[Chorus]
I’m in a fishtank on my own
So I’m sorry that I can’t get to the phone
But I know I'll be okay
'Cause we’re all going up to Heaven anyway
And you’re all stood watching me
And you’re keeping all your aces up your sleeve
But I know I’ll be okay
‘Cause we’re all going up to Heaven anyway
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
We’re going up to heaven anyway
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

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.
