After featuring with Syd on on Matt Martians's "Dent Jusay," Steve Lacy returns to HNHH with "Dark Red," a funky new single from the depths of his heart. On "Dark Red," Lacy lays down the diary of a misguided, begging his love to keep her hands underneath him. He channels a fear of abandonment that is real to so many of us, but created with dissonance, as the instrumentation speaks to an emotional palette highly contradictory.

Quotable Lyrics
What if she's fine
And it's my mind that's wrong?
And I just let bad thoughts
Linger for far too long
