braindead! Lyrics

[Chorus]
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead

[Verse 1]
You lock me out, you lock me in
You smote my soul and I can't win
It's over now before it begins
Just suck this salt to cleanse your sins
If I can't speak about the things
That make me sad, then I am weak
But I'm not strong either
I'm just a kid with a cold pretendin' it's a fever

[Chorus]
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead

[Verse 2]
The mystery is not that hard
When you can read between the bars
Tongue trip's over your fickle cheek
With the lies you tell and the shit you speak
I think you should clean your teeth
With guilty truths and liar's bleach
Adjusting the lighting
So I can't see the scars on your face fucking hiding

[Bridge]
They find it hard to love you, no matter what they say
They're tryna get above you while laughing in your face
They find it hard to love you, no matter what they say
They're tryna get above you while laughing in your face

[Chorus]
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead
I just wanna be pretty brain-dead

What did YUNGBLUD say about "braindead!"?

I wanted to this to be almost like a show opener. You turn it on like, ‘oh the new YUNGBLUD EP is out’, press play and bang… your brain literally becomes dead because it’s that crazy. The song is about looking at people who amplify unjustified hate in modern society and it’s almost like, if you are going to amplify that and put it into my brain, then I’d rather my brain be braindead. I just wanted it to be this massive accumulation of energy and madness and I will 100% be opening my shows with it. And I love the major key change at the end because… why fucking not.
