Can't remember was it your birthday 
Don't know how I could've missed it
Swore I wrote it down in my head
But I was busy tryna fix it

If you say that you tried
I guess that you tried
All angels on earth 
Can't help you do right

When it's done and over 
look a little closer
All side by side
Hell seems alright

Go on pull the trigger
(If hells where you aren't that's where I wanna be)
now I see it clearer 
(If hells where you aren't that's where I wanna be)

Remember a time when I thought the light above your head was a halo 
but If I could count all the lies yeah I'd be rich in pesos
Yeah it's fine okay I guess whatever if you say so
guess it's time I stay on mine and stay focus

Go on pull the trigger
(If hells where you aren't that's where I wanna be)
now I see it clearer 
(If hells where you aren't that's where I wanna be)

And it's okay though
After rain comes rainbows 
And it's okay though
After rain comes rainbows 

Go on pull the trigger
(If hells where you aren't that's where I wanna be)
now I see it clearer 
(If hells where you aren't that's where I wanna be)

Taylor Roche further cements his musical roots and retro-Pop aesthetic in his new endeavour ‘Sucker for a Lonely Heart.’ His new single encapsulates a blend of 80s and 90s nostalgia with a heavy nod to influences such as Prince, INXS, Chicago and The Backstreet Boys fused with his love for modern Synth-Pop and R&B from artists like The Weeknd, Troye Sivan and The 1975. 

‘sucker for a lonely heart’ is Taylor’s nostalgic, Retro-Pop statement of 2021. It explores the crushing awareness that the person you’re so emotionally invested in has moved, leaving you in a floating space of romanticising something that’s no longer there, lost in an endless game of chase. Taylor joined forces with Auckland-based Pop and R&B producer Will Henderson in bringing this idea to life in the studio.  Keeping true to Taylor’s retro-Pop aesthetic, they built this track replicating a stack of 80s drums and arpeggiating, analogue synths. These drive heavily into the choruses fused with big vocal doubles that create a space of urgency, letting moments punch through on lines like “is it half-time yet?.” It’s these moments in the song that resonate the feelings of urgency and hysteria anyone would feel in this exact situation that ‘Sucker for a Lonely Heart’ tells.
