  • I woke up in a warehouse
    But the label had fell off
    Just minding my own meltdown
    It was there I heard the cannibals, cannibals
    They said, "Hey, kid"

    You've got that something special, but it's now or never
    You wanna live forever, but it's now or never
    You know what we want, you should give it to us
    But it's now or never, but there's no pressure, baby

    And I keep picking petals
    I'm afraid you don't love me anymore
    'Cause a kid on the 'gram in a Black Dahlia tank
    Says it ain't heavy metal
    (And that's alright, that's alright)

    I try to do a head count
    But I cannot find the cross
    Said they'd liked it better heavy
    Then they gut me like an animal, animal
    They say

    You had that something special, but it's now or never
    Let's keep it quintessential, it's now or never
    You know what we want, why not give it to us?
    It's now or never, but there's no pressure

    So I keep picking petals
    I'm afraid you don't love me anymore
    'Cause a kid on the 'gram in a Black Dahlia tank
    Says it ain't heavy metal
    Yeah, I keep picking petals
    Got my heart and my head all in the woods
    'Cause some kid from A&R in a Patagonia
    Says he don't really get it, no

    So I keep picking petals
    All I wanna know, do you love me anymore?
    'Cause some kid on the 'gram said he used to be a fan
    But this shit ain't heavy metal
    (And that's alright)
    And I keep picking petals
    I'm afraid you don't love me anymore
    'Cause a kid on the 'gram in a Black Dahlia tank
    Says it ain't heavy metal
    Yeah, I keep picking petals
    I'm afraid you don't love me anymore
    'Cause some kid on the 'gram said he used to be a fan
    But this shit ain't heavy metal

    No, this ain't heavy metal!
    No, this ain't heavy metal! Writer/s: Jordan Fish, Lee Malia, Matthew Kean, Matthew Nicholls, Oliver Sykes
