LYRICS (Bathroom Light):
Find me a lane to drive through
In a Halloween costume
I'm an astronaut without you
We're twisting our way to the back of the bar
Yeah, locking the door, falling into the stall
Stripping you down to your jewelry
You're breaking the rules just for me
What a life under big stars and a good woman in charge
Got me falling in, got me falling in hard
So, come on, baby, let's do this right
I think I like falling in love in the bar bathroom light
I don't question it, I don't mess with it, I just go, go grab it
Tell your friends, tell your ma that you love who they are
'Cause someday we must return the movies in our brains
And these moments we can't fakeLYRICS
LYRICS (Checklist)
Been too long I'm wasted up strong
She knows my name, I don't recall hers, but
Oh, well guess we're just old friends
She told me "You should know me" I laughed and said, "Hell I've...
Never really met you, guess I just assumed had before"
She rolled her eyes and laughed too
Expecting something I wasn't ready for
Wasn't ready for
Nah, don't wanna be part of your Checklist
Part of your reckless love
You seem a little too obsessive
All I gotta do is mess this up
Please mess this up
Please mess this up
Please mess this up
Anybody awake, anybody awake
I could use a drink
(Walkin' to Snakes on the way back)
That was a mistake, that was a mistake, but I'll learn from it
(Lump in my throat where my guilt trapped)
Left in the middle of the night
Once my body had caught up with my mind
Still feel a little weak inside
Ah, caved like a dog with no spine (no spine, no spine)
I don't wanna be part of your Checklist
A part of your reckless love
You seem a little too obsessive
All I gotta do is mess this up
Please mess this up
Don't be the nice one
Please mess this up
And you all up in my space
Cut me down to stand the same
Take advantage of my pain
I'm involved with no one lately
I get stuck deep in reckless cycles
And she's just waiting 'til I'm gone
Too lost on love, still sure
I don't wanna be part of your Checklist
A part of your reckless love
You seem a little too obsessive
All I gotta do is mess this up
Please mess this up
Please mess this up
Please mess this up
Yes, the angels never leak the expiration date, so
So, come on, baby, let's do this right
I think I like falling in love in the bar bathroom light
I won't question it, I won't mess with it, if it's there go grab it
Tell your friends, tell your ma that you love who they are

Hans is awesome. A nice breath of fresh air. New Orleans was a great choice to grow his music. I hope he sticks with it.
