lyrics

V1
Where, where, where do you drift at midnight?
When you closed the door, yea I was wide awake
Now you'll never know why I ride at night
One time you thought you knew under acid drenched sunrise

You can't lay your hands on me, you fucker anymore
I, I, I won't cry for you no more

CHORUS
I light and burn for you, yea its true
When you knew you'd leave me too
And I live and die for the things you want
So come on, I'll drift too

V2
Three sheets to the wind when I close my eyes
(My bloodshot eyes have seen this town)
Feel my soul slip away every night when I sleep
(Flip, switch, get dark and never come around)
Don't you know that I've been drifting too?
(Falling through floors of the sickest memory)
New man each night, midnight, since I got numb
(At soft daybreak ma' can I dream?)
New roads you call dangerous I know like the back of my hand
Try as you might, you'll never understand

CHORUS

OUTRO
Why'd you do it? Why'd you do it? Wrap me up in your arms and blew it
Why'd you do it? Why'd you do it? Wrap me up in your arms and blew it
Now you go, your on the run, while I hold out for the sun
Now you go, your on the run, pay me dust you useless fuck

I'm angry and I'm lost, so please don't leave me here
You and only you were supposed to get me out of here now
No, you know I know, not in this goddamn place
I walk alone and you, you don't come through with my call I beg you
It's midnight and it's mine, but it don't feel right when I'm not with you
I'll drift too

Evan Melada image

Evan Melada New York, New York

Melada's sound delivers a concisely crafted tone without reservation. The hints of jazzy piano when combined with heavy R&B synths create a uniquely dreamy, yet equally enigmatic feel to his tone, leaving you wanting more of this perplexing contradiction. Every second walks the line between giving into the darkness and floating away into space, all mediated by Evan’s hauntingly resonating vocals. ... more
