[Verse 1: Stephen]
Stray nights, hold you in the bright sky
Fuck around in the back seat, you and I
Everyone's lookin' for something
You say that you want it
You know that I got it
No rush, you are so my type
Anonymous from the world, just you and I
When everyone's tryna be something
You prefer nothing
[Pre-Chorus: Chloe Angelides, Stephen]
Tell me how it is, boy, tell me how it is
I think you need to rest with me, just a little bit
Don't hold back, you can let me in
You can let me in
I'll tell you how it is, girl, tell you how it is
I think I need to rest with you, just a little bit
Lose myself in your sweet motion
In your sweet motion
[Chorus: Chloe Angelides]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, huh
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, hey
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 2: Stephen]
Stray nights, I don't even feel tired
Catch a second wind every time you and I
Step back from all of the drama
I worry about it, you take me above it
It's like I don't wanna waste time
Hollywood ain't a place for you and I
I'm in a rush, tryna be something
I'd rather be nothing
[Pre-Chorus: Chloe Angelides, Stephen]
Tell me how it is, boy, tell me how it is
I think you need to rest with me, just a little bit
Don't hold back, you can let me in
You can let me in
I'll tell you how it is, girl, I'll tell you how it is
I think I need to rest with you just a little bit
Lose myself in your sweet motion
Lose myself in your sweet motions, in your sweet mo-
Uh
[Chorus: Chloe Angelides]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah (Uh)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, huh
Yeah, yeah, yeah (Never wanna)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, ay
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Outro: Stephen, Chloe Angelides]

I like to play with contrast. The drums in this song are really heavy. If you heard them solo’d, it sounds like a totally different song – really aggressive. But underneath the drums is a gentle and sweet guitar riff, and that contrast gives the song it’s character.
I suppose I just wanted to feel something sweet. Some ear candy, a big hug. The song has two meanings. The first and obvious one is that I’m fantasizing about a girl who isn’t trying to be anyone or anything. Like the anthesis of instagram and LA culture. Someone who would rather be nothing. Anonymo...
