Me Lyrics

I got a plane in the middle of the night, don't you mind
I nearly killed soMebody, don't you mind, don't you mind
I gave you something you can never give back, don't you mind
You've seen your face like a heart attack, don't you mind, don't you mind

I was late but I arrived
I'm sorry but I'd rather be getting high than watching the family die
Exaggerate and you and I
Oh I think I did something terrible to your body, don't you mind

I put your mother through hell, don't you mind
I hate your brother as well, don't you mind, don't you mind
Oh I was thinking about killing myself, don't you mind
I love you, don't you mind, don't you mind

I put your mother through hell, don't you mind
I hate your brother as well, don't you mind, don't you mind
Oh I was thinking bout killing myself, don't you mind
I love you, don't you mind, don't you mind

Me

Frontman Matt Healy explained the song's meaning to The Richie T Experience : "That song, I suppose, is me at my most guilty," he said. "Which, I suppose, is a running theme through a lot of the record 'cause a lot of our records are quite self-deprecating. I think it's a song about me apologizing really. It came about very quickly, that song… 'Me' was written and recorded in about a day."

Girls Lyrics

Bite your face to spite your nose
17 and a half years old
I'm worrying about my brother finding out
What’s the fun in doing what you're told?

I said "No!"
'Oh give it a rest, I could persuade you
I'm not your typical, stoned 18 year old
Give me a night I'll make you'
"I know you're looking for salvation in the secular age
But girl I'm not your savior"
Wrestle to the ground
God help me now because

They're just Girls breaking hearts
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
They're just girls
They're just girls

A pair of frozen hands to hold
Oh she's so southern so she feels the cold
One moment I was tearing off your blouse
Now you're living in my house
What happened to just messing around?

I said "Yo, I think I better go, I can't take you
You just sit and get stoned with 30 year olds and you think you've made it"
'Well, shouldn't you be fucking with somebody your age instead of making changes?'
Wrestle to the ground
God help me now because

They're just girls breaking hearts
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
They're just girls
They're just girls

I told her from the start
Destined to be hard
I told her from the start
I’ll break your heart
Destined to be hard
Break your heart

I said "Yo, I think I better go. I can't take you"
I know you're looking for salvation in the secular age
But girl I'm not your savior"
'Well, shouldn't you be fucking with somebody your age instead of making changes?'
Wrestle to the ground
God help me now because

They're just girls breaking hearts
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
They're just girls
They're just girls

'Cause They're just girls breaking hearts
Eyes bright, uptight, just girls
But she can't be what you need if she's 17
They're just girls
They're just girls

'Cause they're just girls

Girls

This song embodies a devil-may-care attitude, and vocalist Matt Healy and director Adam Powell penned a tongue-in-cheek video treatment to accompany the track. Filmed in LA, the clip sees the 1975 taking a playful poke at the 'off the shelf' major-label pop promo. Healy explained: "When we released our last video ('Sex'), people really reacted to the fact that it was in color. There was a lot of conjecture and talk surrounding it - due to the fact that it was an unexpected stylistic change. It was brought to our attention that certain people thought we were 'conforming to a record companies wishes' along with other expected and unexpected clichés. Obviously this couldn't be further from the truth, we are lucky enough to be surrounded by a group of individuals whose mantra centers on facilitating our creative wishes, we found the whole idea of us being told what to do fascinating."

"The story of the band who suffer at the hands of a record label shortly after a delirious rise is a tale as old as time," he continued. "So we kinda wanted to make a tongue in cheek video about it. Twinned with our love of 80's pop, its innocence, grandiosity and conceptual ideas in music videos - we wanted to make a video about a record label's attempt at enforced conformity. We got our mate Adam down to a studio in Los Angeles at the start of our USA tour, got four models and made a video about us not wanting to make a video."

Heart Out Lyrics

I’m rushing in a small town
I forgot to call you
Running low on know how
This beats made for two
'Cause I remember that I like you
No matter what I found
She said it’s nice to have your friends round
We're watching a television with no sound

It’s just you and I tonight
Why don’t you figure my Heart Out
It’s just you and I tonight
Why don’t you figure my heart out

Push your lack of chest out look at my hair
Gotta love the way you love yourself
Your obsession with Rocks and Brown
And fucking the whole towns
A reflection on your mental health
'Cause I remembered when I found you
Much younger than you are now
Once it started I am friend zone
You created a television in your mouth

It’s just you and I tonight
Why don’t you figure my heart out
It’s just you and I tonight
Why don’t you figure my heart out

You've got something to say
Why don’t speak it out loud
Instead of living in your head
It's always to say why don’t you take your heart out
Instead of living in your head

It’s just you and I tonight
Why don’t you figure my heart out
It’s just you and I tonight
Why don’t you figure my heart out

Heart Out

Frontman Matt Healy described his lyrics for The 1975's self-titled debut LP to The Guardian as "a genuine kind of diary." He added: "And that's the thing I'm really proud of in this album – it's me figuring myself out. Even the line in Heart Out – 'Your obsession with rocks and brown. And fu--ing the whole town' … I'm always talking about me, really."

Settle Down Lyrics

A soft sound
To the way she wears her hair down
Covering up her face
Oh what a let down
I don't seem to be having any effect now
Falling all over the place

But you're losing your words
We're speaking in bodies
Avoiding me and talking 'bout you
But you're losing your turn
I guess I'll never learn
Cause I stay another hour or two

For crying out loud, Settle Down!
You know I can't be found with you
We get back to my house
Your arms, my mouth
Now I just stop myself around you

A small town
Dictating all the people we get around
What a familiar face
Do you get what I mean now?
I'm so fixated on the girl with the soft sound
And hair all over the place

But you're sure that I'd learn
I'm pushing through bodies
Avoiding me and walking around you
But you're cold and I burn
I guess I'll never learn
Cause I stay another hour or two

For crying out loud, settle down!
You know I can't be found with you
We get back to my house
Your arms, my mouth
Now I just stop myself around you

A soft sound
To the way she wears her hair down
Covering up her face
Oh what a let down,
I don't seem to be having any effect now
Falling all over the place

But you're losing your words
We're speaking in bodies
Avoiding me and talking 'bout you
But you're losing your turn
I guess I'll never learn
Cause I stay another hour or two

For crying out loud, settle down!
You know I can't be found with you
We get back to my house
Your arms, my mouth
Now I just stop myself around you

For crying out loud

Settle Down

This sensual track finds Matt Healy singing of an ill-advised relationship and the chaos that ensures. It was inspired by Michael Jackson, whom Healy has noted his admiration for in the past.

The video tells the story of two teenage boys who reveal supernatural powers. It was shot in Redcar, Yorkshire and features various shots in and around the Northern England town. The clip was conceived by Matt Healy and directed by Nadia. "Matty had quite a clear concept in his head of the kind of story he would like to tell in this video," the director told Promo News . "Not a regular love story, but rather that bond and connection you have between friends."

"The video is the metaphorical conception of that," Nadia continued. "About finding that other half which completes you. About breaking free from feeling trapped and isolated in a world where everybody seem to be in on doing you harm and deliberately keeping some looming secret from you. It's about ultimately meeting and connecting with that other human being who you have always sensed was there, and at that moment you meet the world as you know it dies away."

Robbers Lyrics

She had a face straight outta magazine
God only knows but you'll never leave her
Her balaclava is starting to chafe
When she gets his gun he's begging, "Babe stay, stay, stay, stay, stay"

I'll give him one more time
We'll give you one more fight
Said one more lie
Will I know you

Now if you never shoot, you'll never know
And if you never eat, you'll never grow
You've got a pretty kinda dirty face
When she's leaving your home she's begging you, "Stay, stay, stay, stay, stay."

I'll give you one more time
We'll give you one more fight
Just said one more line
There'll be a riot, 'cause I know you

Well, now that you've got your gun
It's much harder now the police have come
Now shoot him if it's what you're worth
But if you just take off your mask
To find out that everything's gone wrong, wrong, wrong.

Now everybody's dead
And they're driving past my old school
And he's got his gun, he's got his suit on
She says, "Babe, you look so cold, you look so cold, you look so cold
You look so cold, you look so cold, you look so cold"

Robbers

This song is about two lovers who aren't good for each other. She's having second thoughts but they keep putting off the inevitable end of the relationship. In doing so they are robbing each other of happiness.

The video finds frontman Matthew Healy and his girl rob a shop at gunpoint to fund their alcohol and drug addiction. The clip was inspired by one of the singer's favorite movie characters. "I got really obsessed with the idea behind Patricia Arquette's character in True Romance when I was about 18," he said. "That craving for the bad boy in that film, it's so sexualized," he added. "It was something I was obsessed with."

"'Robbers' is about a heist that goes wrong," Healy added. "I suppose you can read it as a metaphor, and a girl who's obsessed with her professional killer boyfriend. It's a romantic ideal."
