superdeadfriends Lyrics
Super-dead kids with super-dead friends
You're inside my head, you're inside my head
Super-dead kids with super-dead friends
We got something left, we got something left
[Verse 1]
Oh, I want to live in a new dimension
Take a rocketship without no suspension
I want to live in a world where I
Can be who I am without having to try
Mum, Dad, let me breathe
Let me be free to come off my feet
When you're making a baby in missionary
Bе prepared to accept thеm for what they're gonna be
[Pre-Chorus]
It's too late for you to die young
‘Cause they'll never know where you were comin' from
It's too late for you to die young
‘Cause they'll never know where you were comin' from
[Chorus]
Super-dead kids with super-dead friends
You're inside my head, you're inside my head
Super-dead kids with super-dead friends
We got something left, yeah, yeah, each other
Super-dead kids with super-dead friends
You're inside my head, you're inside my head
Super-dead kids with super-dead friends
We got something left (Yeah, yeah), each other
Oh, I can't travel back from this planet
They locked me in a room with a man with no manners
We don't care if you're black or you're white
Asian or sexually intertwined
It's time to take a look at the world through our eyes
If you stick around, you might like what you find
Take two from me and you start to divide
It'll give you all the energy, times it by five
[Pre-Chorus]
It's too late for you to die young
‘Cause they'll never know where you were comin' from
It's too late for you to die young
‘Cause they'll never know where you were comin' from
It's too late for you to die young
‘Cause they'll never know where you were comin' from
It's too late for you to die young
‘Cause they'll never know where you were comin' from
[Chorus]
Super-dead kids with super-dead friends
You're inside my head, you're inside my head
Super-dead kids with super-dead friends
We got something left, yeah, yeah, each other
Super-dead kids with super-dead friends
You're inside my head, you're inside my head
Super-dead kids with super-dead friends
We got something left (Yeah, yeah), each other
Super-dead kids with super-dead friends
You're inside my head, you're inside my head
Super-dead kids with super-dead friends
We got something left, we got something left

Q&A
Find answers to frequently asked questions about the song and explore its deeper meaning
I wanted this to feel like the Beastie Boys meets Happy Mondays. But then we put the 808 drums on and my voice to make it modern. The song is about drugs and about losing my peers to drugs. I’m not going to be naïve and tell people not to take drugs. But it’s just a song about doing it safely, because the high ain’t worth losing your life or a friend. It’s a song about wanting to escape. Be free, have fun, let loose—but do it with caution.
