[Chorus]
Somethin' wrong
And I can't stay till sun down
I know you down 'cause you called me
But you let me down, I can't stay
Somethin' wrong, I told you
Drunk in love, I'm far from sober
Feel your love until it's over
'Cause you led me down the hallway
[Verse 1]
Woke up in the evening, do my healing when nobody's home
Run-ins with my shortcomings meant I couldn't smell the rose
Party on the hills' summit
Walk in, but you come alone
Other side, the floor hummin' underneath the vocal tones
Blackest clouds hang over your head, but that just come and go
Figures in the dark driftin' to you whеn you on your own
Similar to how the moths do when they see somеthin' glow
Sugar-coated woman, I was younger feeling summoned
Heart beatin' like it steel drummin'
Walked through the field bunnin', hoped nothing felt sudden
So I was late comin', still runnin'
Through my mind, you got my gaze pullin'
Left before I came, so what you sayin'?
When my day comin'?
Sway with me and feel the summer through the thunder
But don't play with me
And we can shiver under covers
When I hit your location, it feel like a vacation
When I hit your location, I could show you new havens, uh-uh
[Chorus]
Somethin' wrong
And I can't stay till sun down
I know you down 'cause you called me
But you let me down, I can't stay
Somethin' wrong, I told you
Drunk in love, I'm far from sober
Feel your love until it's over
'Cause you led me down the hallway
[Verse 2]
Left on a midsummer's eve
In the taxi, on the way
Nobody could see me leave
Comin' over to your place
Leave a message on your phone
No bars on a country lane
Drivin' under broken trees, hopin' that you stay awake
There's lessons in the motion, there's lessons in your ocean
Bloodstone, playin' at your home, micro-dosin'
And, yeah, I'm sick of seein' ghosts, yeah
But I guess that they just come with your emotions
Whatever come under the moon is nothin' new under the sun
You lookin' like forbidden fruit, but don't know where you fallen from
And I could fall and follow suit, but love can be troubled sum
If I rush and fall too soon, it bitter like the cherry plums
I see your energy, it circulate your symmetry
There's ecstasy in empathy, it feelin' like a heavy dream
You think there's nothing left of me, but that's just how it seems
I can see your yard, just thirty seconds till I reach
[Chorus]
Somethin' wrong
And I can't stay till sun down
I know you down 'cause you called me
But you let me down, I can't stay
Somethin' wrong, I told you
Drunk in love, I'm far from sober
Feel your love until it's over
'Cause you led me down the hallway (Oh)

At this point I wondered, ‘Is this a low-key, sad record?’ Because I don’t want this to be the type of music you only play in the winter; I want this to exist all year, whenever, for everyone. All the colors and the feeling of this song was already in my head, and this was the one that felt truest t...
