About This Track

A track built on the weight of regret and insomnia, 'Consequences' finds Lovejoy circling the wreckage of choices made and their rippling aftermath. Wilbur Gold's voice carries the exhaustion of someone who hasn't slept in days, the repetition of the title refrain turning confession into incantation. The song moves between moments of clarity and haze, between the specific detail of a missed train and the broader fog of a life derailed by a single decision. What emerges is a portrait of consequence without resolution. Gold doesn't offer redemption or closure, only the fact of having tried something once that wrecked everything, and the uncertain comfort of being kept awake by love. The track sits in that discomfort, letting the chorus build with each iteration until it becomes almost frantic, the music matching the spiralling thoughts of someone caught between blame and acceptance.

"Consequences" is a track by Lovejoy, from the album Wake Up & It's Over - EP, released 11th May 2023. The track is 3:10 long. It's filed under Rock. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 6 articles about Lovejoy.

Lyrics

Consequences

One, two, three, four

Was it too late to call you?
Was I too drunk to know?
Do you ever feel like you fell off for about a year?
Like to have another go

'Cause I haven't slept in about a week
I stay up, "Thinking I will die"
This time I'm blaming it, I still do
Tried it once, it wrecked my life
Well, maybe it's your love that keeps me up at night
I wish I tried more, wish I tried more, wish I tried

What's this? The consequences of my actions, now?
What's this? The consequences of my actions, now?
What's this? The consequences of my actions, now?
What's this? The consequences of my actions?

"What time's the train start?" She asked me as I drawl
You're just so painfully punctual!
I'm starting to get bored
And I'll decorate my mind, the same beige as the walls
I'm yours, I'm yours, I'm yours

Drink, I've had too much to think
Just tell me, baby
Is this seat taken now?

What's this? The consequences of my actions, now?
What's this? The consequences of my actions?

What's this?
And what's this?
And what's this?
What's this?

What's this? The consequences of my actions, now?
What's this? The consequences of my actions, now?
What's this? The consequences of my actions, now?
What's this? The consequences of my actions?
