Months after announcing his band Middle Class Rut was going on hiatus, Zack Lopez announced a subscription service for fans where they would get access to one new song a week for a full year.
As part of this announcement, he dropped his first DIY solo single “I Don’t Know”.
Downtown I feel like a can opener feels
Like a bloodstain dripping through the battles of my wheel
I got all these teeth and there’s emotion that I cut up
Like a stitch on a thin line
She says, "You ain’t ever gonna be the same
You ain't ever gonna love. You ain't ever gonna change."
I can feel something in my blood start to heat up
Like a shell from a pistol
And I don't care if you don't care
Don't ask why, I don't know
I don't know
And I don't love you, you don't really love me
Don't ask why, I don't know
I don't know
Downtown I feed off the bottom of my list
Tell my brain keep on circulating blood into my fist
Well I hope I miss all the bad days coming
Keep my head to the pillow
‘Cause there ain't ever gonna be anybody like you
They ain't gonna run me the way you do
I like to pretend like it's okay
Like it's okay
And I don't care if you don't care
Don't ask why, I don't know
I don't know
And I don't love you, you don't really love me
Don't ask why, I don't know
I don't know
So don't hold on when there's nothing to hold on to
Just let go and you'll be free, yeah!
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na na
And I don't care if you don't care
Don't ask why, I don't know
I don't know
And I don't love you, you don't really love me
Don't ask why, I don't know
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know
I Don’t Know was written by Zack Lopez.
