TRIBUNMANADO.COM - Black Friday adalah lagu Tom Odell dalam album dengan judul yang sama.

Lagu ini dirilis pada tahun 2024.

Liriknya terasa sangat introspektif dan emosional, tentang seseorang yang sedang berjuang dengan ketidakpuasan terhadap dirinya sendiri, kecemasan, dan perasaan bahwa hidup atau dirinya tidak pernah cukup.

Lagu ini menggunakan suasana konsumtif dan pencarian sesuatu yang lebih sebagai gambaran tentang keinginan manusia untuk terus mencari kebahagiaan dari luar dirinya, padahal masalah sebenarnya ada di dalam.

Berikut lirik lengkapnya:

I wanna go party, I wanna have fun
Wanna be happy, could you show me how it's done?
You look so pretty, pretty like the sun
I could watch forever while you shine on everyone

It's Black Friday, we're in a black taxi
You take my hand and hold it gently on the middle seat
It's all in my head, it's all in my mind
I'm so selfish, you're so kind
It's all in my head, baby, I can't breathe
I look in the mirror, what is happening to me?

I want a better body, I want better skin
I wanna be perfect like all your other friends
You look so pretty, pretty like the wind
Every time you touch me, I feel adrenaline

It's Black Friday, the end of the week
You take my hand and hold it gently up against your cheek
It's all in my head, it's all in my mind
I see the darkness where you see the light
It's all in my head, who do I trust?
I thought that you loved me, what is happening to us?
What is happening to us?
What is happening to us?
