[Intro]
Tonight, my mother said that I
Should never go outside
That I should run and hide
Donate my brain to charity
A one, two, three

[Verse 1]
So, I'm lost in the supermarket shopping for my sense of self
I wandered down the aisles tryna figure out where I disappeared to
What will I adhere to? And what could I appear to be?
And maybe I'm with the strawberries, alone on the shelf
Because they breathe and bleed, and they're sweet like me
They hold my hand and they make it seem that right now
In this moment, I don't need to be a freak

[Chorus]
Tonight, my mother said that I
Should never go outside
That I should run and hide
Donate my brain to charity
I, I'd rather go blind
Than to look into your eyes
And tell you that I lied
Donate my brain to charity

[Verse 2]
So I made myself sad 'cause I feel comfortable here
So I made myself mad because I don't want to steer
To be off the rails is to live without fear
But when you start feeling nothing, nothing becomes clear
So please speak, please laugh, please dance, please cry
Feel every fuckin' tear that falls from your eye
'Cause to feel is to breathe and to fear is to be free
And to be free is what it means to be successful to me

[Chorus]
Tonight, my mother said that I
Should never go outside
That I should run and hide
Donate my brain to charity
I, I'd rather go blind
Than to look into your eyes
And tell you that I lied
Donate my brain to charity

[Post-Chorus]
Who'd have known, who'd have known
That I'd put into my phone
Love, I'm never coming home
Donate my brain to charity
I just feel that I'm not real
I put my hands on the steering wheel
And if I crash, I'm made of steel
Donate my brain to charity

[Bridge]
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, yeah
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, yeah

[Chorus]
Yeah, tonight, my mother said that I
Should never go outside
That I should run and hide
Donate my brain to charity
I, I'd rather go blind
Than to look into your eyes
And tell you that I lied
Donate my brain to charity

[Post-Chorus]
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
Who'd have known, who'd have known
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
That I'd put into my phone
Love, I'm never coming home
Donate my brain to charity
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
I just feel that I'm not real
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
I put my hands on the steering wheel
And if I crash, I'm made of steel
Donate my brain to charity

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.
