“Drunk On Halloween” is a stand-alone single by band Wallows, written when the band was demoing for their debut full-length Nothing Happens
The track was premiered to Flood Magazine on October 11th, 2018 with lyricist Braeden Lemasters saying this:
The song came together pretty quickly in Cole’s be...
[Verse 1]
I know where you’ve been
Don’t try to act like I don’t know you
And all the words you don’t hear
They always find a way back to you now
Say a new day has dawned, but we no longer get to
'Cause I know the truth
The leaves are all gone, so who’s moving on?
I know the worst is to come
[Chorus]
On that Halloween you told me
You weren’t drinkin', I believed you
Now the only time I have’s to
Sit and wonder if you’re thinkin'
About the fun you’ve had with someone else
I know the truth is wasted on you
[Verse 2]
I know what you wanted
Under the lies, you take ‘em and find a way
To run out the door now
Back to a time that you tried to forget
Why’s the music so loud? Take it to the lawn now
Did you think about me if I ever were to find out?
Can you ease the pain with drinkin’ all night?
Guess you’ll never know the answer if you never try
[Chorus]
On that Halloween you told me
You weren’t drinkin', I believed you
Now the only time I have’s to
Sit and wonder if you’re thinkin'
About the fun you’ve had with someone else
I know the truth is wasted on you
You had the choice, I thought we had it made
What’s done is done, what’s left to say?
[Outro]
I know you better, I know you better now
I know you better, I know you better now
I know you better, I know you better now
I know you better, I know you better now
Drunk on Halloween was written by Cole Preston & Dylan Minnette & Braeden Lemasters.
Drunk on Halloween was produced by Will van Boldrik.
Wallows released Drunk on Halloween on Thu Oct 11 2018.
I was procrastinating writing lyrics for a song that’s on the album and then somehow wrote that song. So I showed the guys and we went to Cole’s house and then we made it a thing. The song literally came out of nowhere.
