Joji Is Haunted By An Ex On New Song “Past Won’t Leave My Bed”

The track was co-written with Jonathan Xavier Cunningham, ​fussy, P.J.A. Williams, and produced by Dan Farber. This somber ballad expresses Joji’s struggle with memories of an ex who haunts his thoughts, where sleep remains his only, yet temporary refuge.

"If you ever go, all the songs that we like / Will sound like bittersweet lullabies."
