[Intro]
(Frail state of mind)
(Frail state of mind)
[Verse 1]
Go outside?
Seems unlikely
I'm sorry that I missed your call (Missed your call)
I watched it ring (Ring)
"Don't waste their time"
I've always got a (Frail state of mind)
[Chorus]
"Oh, boy, don't cry"
I'm sorry, but I
I always get this way sometimes (Way sometimes)
Oh, I'll just leave
I'll save you time
I'm sorry 'bout my (Frail state of mind)
[Post-Chorus]
(Frail state of mind)
[Verse 2]
"Stay at mine
You might just like it
Might stop you being miserable" (Miserable)
Nah, I'm alright
Nah, trust I'm fine
Just dealing with a (Frail state of mind)
[Chorus]
"Oh, don't be shy"
I'm sorry, but I
I always get this way sometimes (Way sometimes)
You lot just leave
I'll stay behind
I'm sorry 'bout my (Frail state of mind)
[Post-Chorus]
(Frail state of mind)
(Frail state of mind)
(Frail state of mind)
(Frail state of mind)
[Bridge]
Oh, what's the vibe?
I wouldn't know, I
I'm normally in bed at this time (Bed at this time)
You guys, go do your thing
And I'll just leave at nine
Don't wanna bore you with my frail state of mind
"Oh, winner, winner, that's your biggest lie
I'm sure that you're fine"
I haven't told a lie in quite some time (Quite some time)
"You know we'll leave if you keep lying
Don't lie behind your (Frail state of mind)"
[Outro]
(Frail state of mind)
(Frail state of mind)
(Frail state of mind)

It is a UK garage, sad, Burial kind of thing about social anxiety, you know, going out. I’m better at it happening, (at) me and you [reporter] sitting down and having a conversation, than thinking about going to do the conversation. The social event’s normally always fine, but the build up to it, I...
A lot of the song’s melody appears to interpolate The 1975’s previous August 2018 hit “TOOTIMETOOTIMETOOTIME” from A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships. Coincidentally, both songs were each album’s third early-release.
The 1975 use similar beats in many of their songs. No songs were sampled in the making of this particular song, however.
[During our early teens], we were super into hardcore and making noise and, like most people in the UK, super into dance music. I think Burial is quite an obvious one that you can hear on this, and even people like MJ Cole. That darker side of garage is something that I’ve always really loved. It’s...
I’ve said that my dream song is writing the lyrics of ‘'Hallelujah’‘, but to the music of ’‘I Wanna Dance With Somebody’‘. That idea of happy sad juxtaposition. Melodic garage – like Burial, is my favorite kind of music – the beat and the trappings, the stylistics of everything come from a place tha...
