[Verse 1]
I know it’s a bad idea
But how can I help myself?
[?]
I thought a few drinks, they might help
But it’s been a while my dear
Didn’t want the life’s card dealt
I’m still holding back these tears
While my friends are somewhere else

[Pre-Chorus]
I pictured this year a little bit different
When it hit February
I step in the bar, it hit me so hard, how can it be this heavy?
Every song reminds you’re gone
And I feel the lump form in my throat
‘Cause I’m here alonе

[Chorus]
Just dancin’ with my eyes closed
‘Causе everywhere I look, I still see you
Time is movin’ so slow
And I don’t know what else that I can do
So I’ll keep dancin’ with my

[Post-Chorus]
Eye-ye-eye-eyes
Eye-ye-eye-eyes closed
Eye-ye-eye-eyes
Oh, I keep dancin’ with my

[Verse 2]
Delusion is here again
And I think you’ll come home soon
A bird [?] brings me right back in
And it’s only me that’s in this room
I guess I could just pretend
The colours are more than blue
But I lost more than my friend
I can’t help but missing you

[Pre-Chorus]
I pictured this month a little bit different
No one is ever ready
When it unfolds, you’re getting a hole, how can it be this heavy
Everything changes, nothing’s the same
Except the truth is now you’re gone
And life just goes on

[Chorus]
So I’m dancin’ with my eyes closed
‘Cause everywhere I look, I still see you
Time is movin’ so slow
And I don’t know what else that I can do
So I’ll keep dancin’ with my

[Post-Chorus]
Eye-ye-eye-eyes
Eye-ye-eye-eyes closed
Eye-ye-eye-eyes
Oh, I’ll keep dancin’ with my
Eye-ye-eye-eyes
Eye-ye-eye-eyes closed
Eye-ye-eye-eyes
Oh, I’ll keep dancin’ with my

[Bridge]
They’re shutting the bar, they’re cleaning the floors
And everyone is already home
But I’m on my own

[Chorus]
Just dancin’ with my eyes closed
‘Cause everywhere I look, I still see you
Time is movin’ so slow
And I don’t know what else that I can do
So I keep dancin’ with my

[Post-Chorus]
Eye-ye-eye-eyes
Eye-ye-eye-eyes closed
Eye-ye-eye-eyes
Oh, I keep dancin’ with my
Eye-ye-eye-eyes
Eye-ye-eye-eyes closed
Eye-ye-eye-eyes
Oh, I keep dancin’ with my

New Music Spotlight: 100 Gecs – Dumbest Girl Alive

New Music Spotlight: 100 Gecs – Dumbest Girl Alive

The legendary hyperpop duo 100 Gecs is back with a new song and a brand new crazy album!

Last week the band, which consists of members Dylan Brady and Laura Les, dropped the video to their new song “Dumbest Girl Alive” along with their new sophomore album titled “10,000 Gecs”. The song is one of the last singles from the album to be released, as the band have put out a few songs over the past year including “Mememe” “Doritos & Fritos” and “Hollywood Baby”. The song opens with a sample of the THX deep note theme song, before completely exploding into a chaotic metal riffs and deep trap beats while Laura sings about many “Dumbest Girl Alive” problems, like giving her brain away and putting emojis on her grave.

Check out the music video for “Dumbest Girl Alive” which can be heard on the Nassau Mix weekdays on WHPC!
