LYRICS:
hair in the wind, you’ll blow right by me, holly golightly
hated your friends, it was exciting, i’ll miss the fighting
kissing boys, missing work, got hungover from your words
same new york, it’s the worst, all these nights are a blur
going broke, make it rain, ain’t got nobody to blame
all this time down the drain, i’m the best at insane
take off my shirt at your girlfriend’s party, what’s it to ya?
nobody cares about your music, we see right through it
kissing boys, missing work, got hungover from your words
same new york, it’s the worst, all these nights are a blur
going broke, make it rain, ain’t got nobody to blame
all this time down the drain, i’m the best at insane
i run around in circles, you can’t keep up this time
i’m taken back by freckles, i’m doing every line
i’m phasing out the humdrum, i do this every time
i’m turning on today, i’m t-t-turning on today
kissing boys, missing work, got hungover from your words
same new york, it’s the worst, all these nights are a blur
going broke, make it rain, ain’t got nobody to blame
all this time down the drain, i’m the best at insane

[@squeakmeg]

instantly one of my favs, it sounds so nostalgic and weirdly comforting. this music video is cool as hell these guys never miss!!!

[@ChannelPineappleSon]

i hate to say it but it reminds me of the chainsmokers song closer

​@@ChannelPineappleSon Nothing like it

[@willcubed]

the raw dopamine from hearing a boy sing the phrase “kissing boys” 😌

[@bigmilk13_]

this song is so filled with exhausted emotion, so much nostalgic imagery. reminds me of the feeling i got when i was walking home from a party in college. that half tired, half happy, entirely drunk kind of mood that leads to reflection

[@zachdelaney4131]

the number of nights spend wandering around looking exactly like this in crisp October air with cold ears and hands thinking about kissing boys and missing work and just feeling like you were in some other place entirely.....all summed up in a song

[@The96drummerboy]

these guys got me through cancer treatment and then I went on a three year depressive episode after my dad died, and just couldn’t listen to their music without hurting so deeply. This is the first time I’ve been able to listen to hippo campus since that day and it’s like I’ve found what was missing.

[@aidantaylor117]

this song means everything to me. thank you guys. Jake Luppen saved my life with his solo LP last year. Lupin. it came out at the right time for me. hippo campus really is my brain. their music isn’t always about love and romance but about their life mental health love failure and every year they seem to dig me out of my near demise. they seem to release one song that just gets me out of where i am. or maybe not gets me out but helps me. “i’m the best at insane” is the most true line i’ve heard for my life. i won’t go into it but got damn i’m fucking crazy😪

[@cheesecakelasagna]

I love the way the lines stack into columns (e.g. 1:30), it gives the lyrics another way to be read aside from the intended order of the words.
