"Surrounded By Heads And Bodies" lyrics
"Surrounded By Heads And Bodies"
And Angela, she wears it like a dress
Ooh, post traumatic mess
And don't sleep, it hurts to be awake
The things they make her take
Angela, Angela
We don't speak, she stayed an extra week
Ooh, I see her in my sleep
Angela, oh Angela
(Angela)
Writer(s): Matthew Healy, Ross Macdonald, Adam Hann, George Daniel
Matty Heally dedicated this song to Angela, a woman who was a patient in a rehab where he was recovering from his addiction to heroin. This is described in
"It's Not Living (If It's Not With You)" from this album.
The title of this track derived from David Foster Wallace's "Infinite Jest", which opens with the sentence "I am seated in an office, surrounded by heads and bodies". Matt Healy was reading that book while in rehab.
Angela, this song is dedicated to, was just across the way in rehab with Matt Healy. He said about her, "...we soon found out that we lived on the same road in Manchester! And we were in Barbados. It was crazy, man. One road in the whole world."

Is so hard to do
Keeps me blue 'til I...

Can't do it alone anymore in the dirt
Even when it rains, I need your little rays
Some things never...
5 Seconds Of Summer - "Ghost Of You" Here I am waking up, still can't sleep on your side
There's your coffee cup, the lipstick stain fades with time

So I...
Wallows - "Drunk On Halloween" I know where you've been
Don't try to act like I don't know you
And all the words you don't hear
They always find a way back to you now
Say a new day has dawned
But we no longer get to
Cause I know...
ROLE MODEL - "hello!" You don't know why I'm upset, neither do I
I'm fine if you let me be alone when I cry
I never really talk much, keep it inside
To find someone who cares is getting harder to find
We should be...
