about
JXCKY kicks off his 2021 by enlisting the help of producer, Daniel Roughley and highly acclaimed mastering engineer - Nicholas Di Lorenzo, of Panorama Mastering, to create a dark and edgy break-up anthem.
A departure from his previous singles, JXCKY radiates sinister energy over pulsating, visceral production and a hypnotic bassline as he accentuates a desperation for closure and freedom after a chaotic affair.
lyrics
[Verse One]:
Dance it away
All of the pain
I thought
I was wrong
Intoxicated
I'm losing face
I call
You don't pick up
[Pre-Chorus One]:
Tell me what you want
Love me, love me not
Losing sleep, wondering why we're always in a mess
How'd we fall so far
Wasn't I enough?
Up in my head through the night
[Chorus]:
Off in the deep end
Don't wanna go back, don't wanna be needin'... you
I'm still tryna get ya out my system
Cut me to pieces
As long as I'm past it, given my freedom... too
I'm still tryna get ya out my system
[Verse Two]:
You're playing your tricks
To bury me six feet under
But I die slow
I'm getting a kick out of your excuses
Uh-oh... now I know
[Pre-Chorus Two]:
Tell me what you want
On and now we're off
Gave no reasons and none of this is making sense
Haunt me near and far
Always in the dark
Up in my head through the night
[Chorus]:
Off in the deep end
Don't wanna go back, don't wanna be needin'... you
I'm still tryna get ya out my system
Cut me to pieces
As long as I'm past it, given my freedom... too
I'm still tryna get ya out my, out my
[Post-Chorus]:
I'm still tryna get ya out my, out my... ooh
I'm still tryna get ya out my bloodflow
Controlling the way that I'm breathing (ah, ah)
Cut me to pieces... I'm still tryna get ya out my, out my...
[Pre-Chorus Three]:
Tell me what you want
On and now we're off
Gave no reasons and none of this is making sense
Haunt me near and far
Always in the dark
Up in my head through the night
[Final Chorus]:
Off in the deep end
Don't wanna go back, don't wanna be needin'... you
I'm still tryna get ya out my system
Cut me to pieces
As long as I'm past it, given my freedom... too
I'm still tryna get ya out my system
[Post-Chorus]:
Bloodflow... you run in my veins
You're messing my heartbeat
Controlling the way that I'm breathing
Moving my body
Off in the deep end
Don't wanna go back, don't wanna be needin'... you
I'm still tryna get ya out my system
