about

"Whiteboy" is a tune cloaked in a shimmering tapestry of 70s disco pop, pulsating with warm guitar tones and a hypnotic organ groove, yet harboring a bittersweet tale of love's demise. It chronicles the struggle of one-sided devotion, and a lover's desperate search for affirmation amidst a partner's nonchalant affection. "Whiteboy" paints a portrait of incompatible love languages, where fervent pleas for recognition meet muted responses of complacency. This song is for anyone who has ever loved too fiercely, a melancholic disco odyssey into the fractured landscapes of unrequited devotion.

lyrics

Believe me when I say the words I do
You can trust it's not a lie
I tried
To bare my bones and show to you
But you just won't compromise

You learned to love me like you lost
A bet
But there's lust behind those eyes
You laughed
And turned the cheek to walk away
Sorry, you're not my type

Why do you look surprised
Sorry, I'm not your type
Why do you look surprised
Sorry, I'm not your type

Often lost in thought
Been feeling too distraught to
Take the time to heal
Often lost in thought
Next time, I'll be smart and
Keep my heart concealed

Often lost in thought
Why do you look surprised
Next time, I'll be smart
Sorry you're not my type
Often lost in thought
Why do you look surprised
Next time, I'll be smart
Oooh
