[Verse 1]
And be my mistake
Then turn out the light
She bought me those jeans
The ones you like
I don't want to hug
I just want to sleep
The smell of your hair
Reminds me of her feet

[Pre Chorus]
So, don't wait outside my hotel room
Just wait till I give you a sign
'Cause I get lonesome sometimes

[Chorus]
Save all the jokes you're going to make
Whilst I see how much drink I can take
Then be my mistake

[Verse 2]
I shouldn't have called
'Cause we shouldn't speak
You do make me hard
But she makes me weak

[Pre Chorus]
And don't wait outside my hotel room
Just wait till I give you a sign
'Cause I get lonesome sometimes

[Chorus]
And save all the jokes you're going to make
Whilst I see how much drink I can take
Then be my mistake

The 1975

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.
