imagine making up a million mini-genres just to try and make yourself sound more unique. Ah yes, this is some amazing chickencore mixed with some synthetic-motor-oil-wave.
.:Lyrics:. Locked up, naked with socks I'm watching the phone ring It's making me angry It's making me mad Maxed out, minimum wage My brain is a time bomb I'm saying goodbye, mom I'll see you again Striking a pose Smiling in photos without any reason With people that I'll never know I'm out of control, live in a fictional prose I took an oath, it's killing me though 'Cause I don't believe in the things that I do And now my favorite color is blue And now my favorite color is blue And now my favorite Ropped up, rat in a cage I'm having a breakdown Drinking at a playground, tequila for one Too short, walk in the streets, I'm hating my haircut You say that you're here, but You live on the Sun Burning a kite I'm at a funeral, nothing unusual Baby, I do what I like Looking to fight, smoking a blunt and a pipe Taking a bite, worm in the apple I knew it would happen, 'cause honey the vermin survive Swerve to the side, been driving all night I'm thinking of changing my name, thinking of wrecking a home 'Cause loving and hating are one and the same And I'm feeling like everyone's feeling alone I'm just looking for something to soften the blow A second inside of the truth I don't see red 'cause Now my favorite color is blue And now my favorite color is blue And now my favorite color is blue And now my favorite color is blue And now my favorite color is blue Oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh And now my favorite color is blue And now my favorite color is blue And now my favorite color is blue And now my favorite color is blue And now my favorite color is blue Edit: Sorry for all the mistakes in the lyrics, they are being changed! Thank you for pointing them out!
I'm Glad the video was finally brought back after being taken down for several months... Don't know what that was about. I can finally re-add this to my 🍄trip Playlist.
This collaboration is seriously the DOPEST! You should totally make some more tracks together. I'm interested in hearing how you guys ended up creating this track. Video is super rad. You guys rock!

This video is sooo trippy and sooo artistic. I think it's dope how Robert DeLong and K.Flay kind of contrast each other. Robert has light vibes with his bright blonde hair and smooth voice, contrasted with K.Flay's harsh voice and dark hair / vibes
I come through this comment to praise the angelically postulated song. Yeah they have made a great effort with a song that resulted in a piece of good stuff, and I'm here to praise how much this song represents for me... I can hear my emotions and my inner self. How can I thank?! What a beautiful, rich and illustratively creative mind. Hope you guys do more of this work together and beyond.
To me this song represents a man going through depression (color blue, sadness). He mentions that hes drinking on a playground tequila for one to cope which could mean that when he takes his kids (if he has any) then he can only get through the day with a drink every now and then, even with his kids who typically are peoples happiness and love. The lyric that is most important is "you say you're here but you live on the sun" meaning that someone says they have been there also (depression most likely) but he says you live on the sun meaning that person doesn't know what he (Robert) is going through. Brilliant song, very sad.
and the person on the sun could just be someone who (now) lives very far away but still says (s)hes there for him.. coming to the conclusion that its a song about depression is like adding 1+1
Drinking on a playground moreso refers to the idea that he needs to find new ways of satisfaction when he is older as opposed to emthe way you could easily find it when you were a kid
Robert, I love your work. Now that you are collaborating with other artists, with a clear bump in production quality, should we expect a full length album from you soon? I know you said in the past that you have a bunch of unreleased material. I hope you receive the recognition you deserve after this amazing music video, you are a very inspiring artist and I can't wait to hear more!! Thanks Robert DeLong! ...and thanks to K.Flay for this awesome collaboration. You have a great dynamic together.
Some of you may be thinking to yourself: "Wow, this video must be incredible on acid." Well I came here on acid to tell you that, yes. Yes it is. It is incredible.
My brother showed me this song since he listens to a lot of lo-fi hip hop soo think this got into his recommendations because of the similarities and now I added it to my Spotify playlist like a million times
Long Way Down was my very first favorite song, like the first one I'd play on repeat for hours. Robert, your music is still fantastic and amazing. Love K.Flay aswell. Plus this video is sick
Growing up with undiagnosed autism I resonate with these lyrics on a whole other level 😭😭 Most of my childhood was trying to fit in while simultaneously claiming to be different and unique, trying to achieve this perceived balance between things I couldn't comprehend. Circa age 10-12 I made my mom buy me a basketball because everyone seemed to have one, despite that I wasn't remotely interested in basketball, nor was I athletic in the slightest, it just... felt necessary. I went through several bikes, bought and sold, torn between learning what I was taught was a necessary skill, or giving it up and coming to terms with the fact that I don't have the coordination. I hated my room (up until last year when I finally refurbished it), the same room I had since I was very little. It was a dead end the way I had things arranged, everything was old and kiddy but I couldn't bring myself to change it because I felt it had some sort of sentimental significance. It didn't, or at the very least it wasn't MY sentiment. I didn't know what true sentimental value felt like until mid teens. I was a blank slate, highly impressionable for a little too long. My main influences being pop culture and other kids (whom I never did and never will understand). I didn't know who or what I was, why I never fit in, why I felt completely alone in my seemingly obsure interests. The funniest part, _everything I own is blue._ Because it has been cemented that _my favorite color is blue._ Anyway thanks to the internet, I'm not alone anymore haha 💙🫠
I can relate. If I was born later I might have been diagnosed with autism. I matured veeeery late in life and I didn't really "grow up" until I had a mental health crisis that shattered my reality. I'm talking fully blown manic psychosis, three times. If I didn't get help and medicated right away I might have developed schizophrenia (which is complicated because its not something you "develop" per se but its something that can reveal itself later in life) And I don't have a favorite color, or rather my favorite color is the absence of color (black)
@@extrapathosSorry to hear you're having a hard time. And im happy to hear that your getting help. Meds do half the work but the other half is mental work in my experience. I'll leave you with a short poem of mine. I have forged the cutlery for my feast. The devourer of my thoughts. I am satisfied
This grafically represents how I feel every time I listen to this song. Good to know we are in the same channel, thank you guys for this piece of art! (Btw, both of you look handsome af! yaaaas 🔥)
Wash Your Hands The snapchat or the video? I want a friend I can rant to about Robert. Simply that. The video is the opposite of love. It’s anger and madness. Robert has a girlfriend, the one who does his face paining.
