about

5 Points was produced while 1000 Beasts was on tour with another artist and had two days off in Nashville, TN. Staying in a beautiful AirBnb in the district of 5 Points, sitting on the porch deep into the early morning one night, 1000 Beasts created the track for 5 Points. 1000 Beasts explains: «there's the sound of the siren of an ambulance playing throughout large sections of the track, this is because, despite having headphones on, I could hear an ambulance pass while I was producing the track, the sound suited, so I decided to record the siren on my iPhone and put it into the track. »

Excited with this, he reached out to upcoming Irish musician Alex Tierney to see if he would be interested in collaborating on the track. Following on from two writing sessions the following month when 1000 Beasts returned to Ireland, and 5 Points was born.

lyrics

You tell me what you want
I tell you all I've got
I never knew that we were looking for the same
You said that we were friends but then you pulled me in
No I'm not ready for

Every time that I've been waking up alone
It just reminds me of the perfect place to go
And every time that you've been leaving me to hope
I've been giving it all away
I've been giving it all away for you

I've been giving it all away for you
I've been giving it all away for you
I've been giving it all away for you
I've been giving it all away for you

Don't call me up if you won't call it love
Yeah I gave you something, was it not enough?
Don't call me up if you won't call it love
Yeah I gave you something, was it not enough?

Every time that I've been waking up alone
It just reminds me of the perfect place to go
And every time that you've been leaving me to hope
I've been giving it all away
I've been giving it all away for you

I've been giving it all away for you
I've been giving it all away for you
I've been giving it all away for you
I've been giving it all away for you
I've been giving it all away for you
I've been giving it all away for you
