[Chorus]
(Park Hill romance) We got the love but they put out the fire
(Park Hill romance) 'Cause they expect us to walk on the wire
(Park Hill romance) We got the love but they put out the fire
(Park Hill romance) 'Cause they expect us to walk on the wire

[Verse 1]
A kid lifts up a spray can
And never thought it would be famous, what he did
Turned a mess into a dreamland
With a quirky act of romance
A version of Romeo and Juliet
This time with Adidas sneakers and cigarettes
"A couple of kids trying to cut down the safety net"
They twisted the story so they could bring glory to it

[Pre-Chorus]
I love ya, will you marry me?
Oh, what a shame we gotta pay for reality
Ain't it sad, sad, sad?

[Chorus]
(Park Hill romance) We got the love but they put out the fire
(Park Hill romance) 'Cause they expect us to walk on the wire
(Park Hill romance) We got the love but they put out the fire
(Park Hill romance) 'Cause they expect us to walk on the wire

[Verse 2]
They didn't write her name on the article
That to me just seems pretty farcical
Now coppers, take coppers
Out of his hands from a ban from alcohol
Fundamental narcissist
Tried to make out he didn't exist
When they wrote on the, what?
When they wrote on the
T-shirts, cool merch, postcards
And lighting it up like a piece of art
They kicked him to the side and left him to starve
On the memory that's re-breaking his broken heart

[Pre-Chorus]
I love ya, will you marry me?
Oh, what a shame we gotta pay for reality
Ain't it sad, sad, sad?
(Hey!) I love ya, will you marry me?
Oh, what a shame we gotta pay for reality (Hey!)
Ain't it sad, sad, sad?

[Bridge]
Every day (Every day), day, day (Every single day)
Day, day, day, day, day, day, day
Every day (Every day), day, day (Every single day)
Day, day, day, day, day, day, day

[Pre-Chorus]
I love ya, will you marry me?
Oh, what a shame we gotta pay for reality
Ain't it sad, sad, sad?
(Hey!) I love ya, will you marry me?
Oh, what a shame we gotta pay for reality
Ain't it sad, sad, sad?

[Chorus]
(Park Hill romance) We got the love but they put out the fire
(Park Hill romance) 'Cause they expect us to walk on the wire
(Park Hill romance) We got the love but they put out the fire
(Park Hill romance) 'Cause they expect us to walk on the wire
(Park Hill romance)

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.
