braindead!

I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be, pretty brain dead!
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be, pretty brain dead!

You lock me out, you lock me in
You smoke my soul and I can't win
It's over now, before it begins
Just suck this salt to cleanse your sins
If I can't speak about the things
That make me sad, then I am weak
But I'm not strong either
I'm just a kid with a cold pretendin' it's a fever

I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be, pretty brain dead!

The mystery is not that hard
When you can read between the bars
Tongue trip's over, your fickle cheek
With the lies you tell and the shit you speak
I think you should clean your teeth
With guilty truths and liar's bleach
Adjusting the lighting
So I can't see the scars on your face f*cking hiding

They find it hard to love you, no matter what they say
They're tryna get above you while laughing in your face
They find it hard to love you, no matter what they say
They're tryna get above you while laughing in your face

I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be, pretty brain dead!
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be, pretty brain dead!

parents

Blah! 
 
I was born in a messed up century 
My favourite flavoured sweets are raspberry amphetamines 
I bought a car, Beretta aged sixteen 
I brush my teeth with bleach 'cause I ain't got time for cavities 
My daddy put a gun to my head, said if you kiss a boy I'm gonna shoot you dead 
So I tied him up with gaffer tape 
And I locked him in a shed 
Then I went out to the garden 
And I f*cked my best friend cause my 
 
High hopes are getting low because these people are so old 
The way they think about it all 
If I tried I would never know 
My high hopes are getting low 
But I know I'll never be alone 
It's alright, we'll survive, cause parents ain't always right 
 
Drop a toaster in my bath watch my mum and dad laugh 
See a thousand volts go through the son they wish they never had 
They told me casual affection leads to sexual infection 
But it's hard to get an erection when you're so used to rejection 
Yeah the teacher f*cked the preacher 
But then he had to leave her 
Had to wash away the sins 
Of a male cheerleader 
Hi, nice to meet ya, got nothing to believe in 
So let me know when my breathing stops 
Cause my 
 
High hopes are getting low because these people are so old 
The way they think about it all 
If I tried I would never know 
My high hopes are getting low 
But I know I'll never be alone 
It's alright, we'll survive, cause parents ain't always right 
 
Tick, tock, stop the clock 
Because I get the feeling that I'm gonna get shot 
Tick, tock, stop the clock 
Because I get the feeling that I'm gonna get shot 
 
My high hopes are getting low because these people are so old 
The way they think about it all 
If I tried I would never know 
High hopes are getting low 
But I know I'll never be alone 
It's alright, we'll survive, cause parents ain't always right

original me

        [ Featuring Dan Reynolds ]
    

Yeah 
 
I'm so sick of me, wake up and hate to breathe 
And I pride myself in that, so dramatic, I'll admit 
I'm so typical, my life ain't difficult 
But I'm so caught up in it, just a lowlife, I'll admit 
 
I'm self-critical, tryhard original 
Oh, I pride myself on that, such a loser, I'll admit 
And I ask myself when my time will come 
Will I run away, will I run away? 
 
I'm the original loser 
 Some days I wish I's anyone else 
I'm the original loser 
 Some days I wish I'm anyone else 
 
 I'm so paranoid, most people I avoid 
Not seeking sympathy (Nah), I just want all of this (Hey) 
I hide under an umbrella (Yeah) 
And try to shelter myself from the rain 
 
Try to stop my head from goin' insane 
Counting down all the days 
 Swear that there's a bright side too 
 Being alone outside 
 
They cannot suffocate me when they cannot 
 F*cking chase me out (Ayy) 
I anagram all of the letters 
That are tellin' me that I'm gonna be fine 
 
I climb the walls inside of my mind 
Piece 'em together and jump off the sides 
I'ma be alone tonight 
If I tried to stay alive and realise 
 
I'm going blind 
(Congratulations) I'm the original loser 
 Some days I wish I's anyone else 
 (Congratulations) I'm the original loser 
 
Some days I wish I's anyone else 
 Don't let 'em change your mind 
 Don't let 'em change your mind (Ooh) 
And don't let 'em waste your time 
 
Don't let 'em waste your time (Someone save me) 
Don't let 'em change your mind (Loser) 
Don't let 'em waste your time 
Don't let 'em waste your time 
 
Yeah, don't let 'em waste your time 
I'm the original loser 
(Congratulations) 
 
Some days I wish I's anyone else

casual sabotage

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

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

Sitting 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

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)

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

B-burn me down till we're nothin' but enemies
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)

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)

Hope for the Underrated Youth

If I left today
Would you wait for me or would you throw us all away?
Like the magazines say
Should I call right away?
Cut all of my hair off, and change my second name?
From a juvenile state

And just take my heart out
That'd make it better
I won't be sorry
Better late than never
Just take my heart out
That'd make it better
Hidin' all my feelings but I know that I'm not dreaming

'Cause there's hope for the underrated youth
And I'm so far from telling you the truth
'Cause you keep on pulling me down, pulling me down, pulling me down
Yeah there's hope for the underrated youth

Every day is an episode
I pick and mix with self-control
My head won't let me go like if I died you'd never know
I made friends with the dark parts that are inside of my mind
I tie them up to the commas back in juvenile rhymes
And my eyes are about to blow
But that's all part of this freak show
My personality got f*cked up by the Adderall
Got called an alien for bein' myself
I ain't got the patience to be someone else

So just take my heart out
That'd make it better
I won't be sorry
Better late than never
Just take my heart out
That'd make it better
Hidin' all my feelings but I know that I'm not dreaming

'Cause there's hope for the underrated youth
And I'm so far from telling you the truth
'Cause you keep on pulling me down, pulling me down, pulling me down
Yeah there's hope for the underrated youth

If I die, would you cry?
Would you come and bury me alive?
If I die, would you cry?
Would you come and bury me alive?
If I die, would you cry?
Would you come and bury me alive?
If I die, would you cry?
Would you come and bury me alive?
(Would you come and bury me alive?)

There's hope for the underrated youth
I'm so far from telling you the truth
Yeah, there's hope for the underrated youth
And I'm so far from telling you the truth
You keep on pulling me down, pulling me down, pulling me down
Yeah there's hope for the underrated youth
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

waiting on the weekend

I'm holding out
When I pass your house
I'm waiting on the weekend
I'm waiting on the weekend

I contemplate the words
To make you feel safe and sound
Waiting on the weekend
I'm waiting on the weekend

Will we ever meet again?
Will you be stood waiting, wait for your train
Tomorrow, waiting on the weekend
Are you waiting on the weekend?
Waiting on the weekend

I spend four days messin' 'round in my head
Could she be my lover or is this pretend?
'Til then I'm waiting on the weekend
I'm waiting on the weekend
Waiting on the weekend

She always looks so tired, and I don't know why
And all I wanna do is ask
But I just walk by, by
So maybe on the weekend
Maybe we could speak then
I'm waiting on the weekend, now

Back to: YUNGBLUD

the underrated youth Info:

(buy at amazon.com)

YUNGBLUD began working on his second EP in late 2018, although the last track, "waiting on the weekend", was written when he was 17.

YUNGBLUD told Billboard that the EP says that "the future is going to be bright, simply because we're fucking in it.", and that he wants it to be a trust exercise, "You know, when you fall back and someone catches you. I want people to have that sense of belonging, like someone's going to have their back.". He also spoke to Official Charts, calling it "a tribute to individualism". And speaking to Altenative Press he stated "This EP is emotional, [and] it's about what is happening in my heart and the stories I've heard and the journeys my fans have taken me down into their heads and into my head. It's almost like we're a fucking connected train set, and I'm going inside their heads, and they're coming inside mine." A day before the EP was released he did an interview with BBC News, who reported him as "A mouthpiece for the underrated youth", and stated that "waiting on the weekend" was co-written with Shane Gilliver, his guitar teacher, in a Los Angeles studio where "the microphone cost more than my rent".

Original Me was the third and final single, released 8 October 2019. The song, which features Dan Reynolds from Imagine Dragons, was announced 4 October 2019 and released 8 October. On 9 October, he invited fans to Times Square in New York to watch the premiere of the video with him, it premiered on MTV, shown on a one of the big screens.

After the EP was released, on 21 October, YUNGBLUD and Reynolds performed the single on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. In a press release, he said that the song is "about accepting the parts of yourself that you hate and realizing your biggest superpower is to be originally, authentically yourself".
