Joji - Past Won't Leave My Bed (Review & Lyrics)
Joji’s latest single, Past Won’t Leave My Bed, released on November 7, is the third preview from his upcoming album Piss In The Wind, set for release on February 6, 2026. The song centers on the line, “I try to move on, but the past won’t leave my bed,” a straightforward expression that resonates deeply without relying on metaphor.
The production, by Dan Farber, is minimalistic: warped guitars paired with subtle percussion create a subdued backdrop. Joji’s voice takes the spotlight, calmly occupying the space that evokes the feeling of being half-awake, haunted by memories of someone lost.
Lyrics and Themes
The lyrics depict a state of emotional paralysis—neither sad nor moving forward, just stuck. Joji sings of haunted rooms and blurred shadows, where reality and imagination merge. A key moment describes hallucinations starting to overlap, with his tired vocal delivery reflecting the burden he carries.
Music Video
Released the same day on YouTube, the video shares the intimate tone of “Glimpse of Us,” exploring similar emotional depths. However, this track feels less like a fresh wound and more like lingering scar tissue that aches under certain conditions.
Album Context
“Past Won’t Leave My Bed” is track eleven on the 21-song Piss In The Wind, appearing near the album’s end where the mood softens and reflection takes precedence.
“I try to move on, but the past won’t leave my bed.”
Joji captures the exhausting persistence of memory and heartbreak in a sparse, haunting soundscape.
Summary: Joji’s “Past Won’t Leave My Bed” is a minimal, emotionally raw track that portrays being trapped in haunting memories with honest lyrics and subtle production.
