Joji - Past Won't Leave My Bed (Review & Lyrics)
Joji returns with his latest single, Past Won’t Leave My Bed, released on November 7 as the third preview from the upcoming album Piss In The Wind (out February 6, 2026). The song’s core line, [translate:"I try to move on, but the past won’t leave my bed"], captures a raw and honest emotion without needing metaphorical complexity, making it deeply relatable.
The production by Dan Farber is minimalistic, focusing on warped guitars and sparse percussion. Joji’s voice takes centre stage, blending into a half-awake, restless mood as he reflects on someone lost. The lyrics express a feeling of being stuck—not quite sad or moving forward, just trapped in memories and haunted spaces.
[translate:"I try to move on, but the past won’t leave my bed."]
The song describes blurred lines between reality and hallucination, conveying exhaustion in Joji’s delivery—as if he’s weary of carrying emotional weight. The music video, released simultaneously on YouTube, shares the intimate vibe of his earlier hit Glimpse of Us, though this track feels more like lingering scar tissue than a fresh wound.
Past Won’t Leave My Bed appears as track eleven on the 21-song album, placed near the end where the mood quiets down and becomes more introspective.
Summary: Joji's new single reveals raw vulnerability through minimal production and haunting lyrics, portraying the lingering pain of being trapped in the past.
