Dave McKendry - Dr*gs (Lyric Video)
Listen Now: https://davemckendry.lnk.to/Drgs
“Dr*gs”, the jaw-dropping new single from Belfast-native Dave McKendry, goes straight for the “did-he-just-say-that?” button. First release from the upcoming “Elephant EP” it dives unapologetically into the controversial, calling on everyone with the mantra, “let’s do dr*gs, let’s fall in love.”
Known for his depth of feeling and relatively safe music, it begs the question, “what was he thinking?” “I know what everyone will think this song is about. It’s not about that,” says McKendry.
What on the surface may appear to be an extremely irresponsible and antisocial message actually goes a lot deeper. “After years of writing intense, deep songs, I’ve finally found a way to keep the intensity and the depth, without having to dive into sadness. With this whole EP I’m finally diving into the joy of life.”
Comparing the highs and lows of life with dr*gs, McKendry takes a look in the mirror and says, “I love you.”
“I’ve spent long enough beating myself up for things, even though I’ve so much to be happy and grateful for. I’m done with that for now. I’m finally looking in the mirror and loving myself. I’m turning up for myself, knowing I’ll be better at turning up for everyone else. And I think it’d be an amazing world if everyone else did it too.”

Lyrics:
First day of the divine
I lost my mind a little bit
I was happy ever since until the
Worst day I can recall
Of all the falls I ever fell
I got lost inside myself
Just hoping maybe
You’d save me
Is love so hard to find
We lose our minds
No there’s nobody I know
Was ever in love and control
I know there’s more to life
Now you’re part of my life
Some days I glow without a warning
Explosions of endorphins
Once the sunset was black and white
Now I see everything in colour
I thought I had it covered
I was crazy
Is love so hard to find
We lose our minds
No there’s nobody I know
Was ever in love and control
I know there’s more to life
Than a good time
Sometimes I forget it though
To get it you’ve gotta let go
I want your hand in mine
Let’s do dr*gs
Let’s fall in love
Let’s push this stuff
Let’s get f***ed up
Let’s do dr*gs
Let’s fall in love
Let’s push this stuff
Let’s get f***ed up
Let’s do dr*gs
Let’s fall in love
Let’s push this stuff
Let’s get f***ed up
Can’t get enough
Can’t get enough
You fill me up
You fill me up
Let’s do dr*gs
Let’s fall in love
Let’s push this stuff
Let’s get f***ed up
Can’t get enough
Can’t get enough
You fill me up
You fill me up
