Sleep

I don't wanna be here anymore, eyes on the floor
Watching dust collect upon the metal of the vents and
Insects marching diligent to enter where they can
I wanna be just like them, another ant
With one persisting drive to find a better source of sustenance
I always find myself pursuing all the things that drag me further down

One more round of apathy for now
Just to help me push it all back down

I'm back down, eyes blacked out, can it pass now
I'm counting sheep to fall asleep but they surround
Now the teeth begin to gnash and tear away
I am left to wither down
My own mind is beating back time again, forever
Stuck inside this thought that I can't seem to figure out another
Narrative reduced to monochrome and I can't seem to hear the sound

One more girl to kill it all away
Just one night and everything's okay

And in the morning I can tighten up, clean it up
Forget my worries and I'll brighten up, I'm on top
I know my mind has just been out of line
I'll see the sun and I know I'll be fine
And in the evening I can see my friends
I'll come around and wear a smile again
And I won't let it go away this time
No I won't let it wash away this time....
Right?

In The Morning

---------------------------------

Johnny Manchild and the Poor Bastards is an American multi-genre ensemble founded by Johnny Manchild (composition, production, vocals, keys). Since its founding in 2016, the band took the internet by storm, with a unique conundrum of jazz idioms, ska, alt-rock, world music, and funk that prompted even Anthony Fantano himself (known as “The Only Music Critic Who Matters” by the NYT) ask “what gives them the right to be this good? ”

The Bastards have since answered that question, drawing from a dedicated and thriving fanbase that is bound together by a deep love of music, lyricism, engineering and sonic exploration. From their hometown of Oklahoma City to the global stage, each release has been a marked discovery not just for the fans, but the Poor Bastards themselves. 

With 25+ million streams, 4 albums, and new sonic horizons to be crossed, the Poor Bastards have morphed into a collective of sorts with as many as 10 collaborators (affectionately “Bastards”) in regular rotation, with Johnny Manchild at the helm.
