lyrics

Well I heard your voice on the radio
And I built my world around you
And I walked my way knowing dreams come true

Now I’m spinning through my words like leaves on a hurricane
Like something I could say could make this alright
Looking to the sky like hope on a rainy day
Peeking through the clouds to see the sunlight

Oh, on and on and on
I wanna be more like you
And no I never won,
But I know what i have to do

So i jumped a train back to sleepy town
Where I first read all about you
And I didn’t know shit then
But now I do

And I’m jealous of the way my friends sing all your melodies
Dancing in the streets and into the night
Just another good excuse to self-medicate
Like something I could drink could make me feel right

Oh, on and on and on
I wanna be more like you
And no I never won,
But I know what i have to do

Sleeping on the floor
I’ve gotta be more like you
Crashing out at dawn
And waking up Black & Blue

One day to another
Blander than vanilla
When your beats keep swimming around in my head
The worst part is I know I could be better
But I drink those feelings and piss them all away

Oh, on and on and on
I wanna be more like you
And no I never won,
But I know what i have to do

Sleeping on the floor
I’ve gotta be more like you
Crashing out at dawn
And waking up Black & Blue

Junkheart is a band of one. Crafting the soundtrack to his own internal movie; dripping in nostalgia, small-town drama, doomed young-love and existential angst. He mixes modern production, retro-guitars, vintage synths, and rich layered vocals to create a dreamy portal into his world; blending elements of 80s alt-pop, dynamic beats and the sulkiest R&B. ... more
