"COMPLETE MESS" lyrics

"COMPLETE MESS"

Caught up in heaven but your heaven ain't the same
And I've never been a saint, have I?
This evanescence always fleeting like a flame
But I'm never one to change, am I?
Call it a lesson when I feel you slide away
And I'm missing out on half my life

Oh, you make me complete
You make me complete
You make me a complete mess
Oh, you make me complete
You make me complete
You make me a complete mess

Hang on to moments like they'll never drift away
'Cause you'll never get to say goodbye
I ask no questions as your colours take their hold
As my darkness turns to gold inside
I learned my lesson when I felt you slip away
And I'm missing out on half my life

Oh, you make me complete
You make me complete
You make me a complete mess
Oh, you make me complete
You make me complete
You make me a complete mess

(You make me a complete mess)
(You make me a complete mess)

Caught up in heaven but your heaven ain't the same
But I've never been a saint, have I?

Oh, you make me complete
You make me complete (You make me complete)
You make me a complete mess
Oh, you make me complete (You make me complete)
You make me complete (You make me complete)
You make me a complete mess

"COMPLETE MESS" is the lead single from 5 Seconds Of Summer's fifth studio album. The song was premiered on March 3, 2022, accompanied by a music video directed by Lauren Dunn.
According to drummer Ashton Irwin, the title of this track is a reference to a phrase "YOU COMPLETE MEss" which vocalist Luke Hemmings had on his T-shirt during the band's tours. Hemmings explained on the 3rd of March, 2022, "It's self-produced, self-written song by the band. Self-inspired, self-indulgent. [...] It's just done by the band and Michael produced it. [...] It feels like a triumphant moment for the band."
The band mates said about this song recorded at Rancho V in Joshua Tree (Michael Clifford's own home studio and Dragonfly Creek in Malibu) in a statement, "This new music is so authentically us. It's exactly the kind of music we want to be making right now and it's a good song to be able to reconnect to our fans after such a long time of not releasing music. We can't wait for everyone to hear what we've been working on."
