Waterparks further prove Awsten Knight isn't a "Dream Boy" in "[Reboot]"
Waterparks just dropped “[Reboot],” the fourth single from their forthcoming album FANDOM, that seems to confront the aftermath of heartbreak.
The intense song seems to play off their other recent single “Dream Boy” lyrically. However, instead of focusing on wanting fans to love him as with that track, Awsten Knight seems to be discussing a failed relationship.

Knight’s vocals vary in the track, including a verse or two where he seems to be almost rapping. It’s also filled with distorted sounds and electronic influences as seen in the other songs already dropped from FANDOM.
Waterparks shared the new track on Twitter, encouraging fans to “listen to her w no distractions”.
[REBOOT] IS HERE. JUST BORN. LISTEN TO HER W NO DISTRACTIONS. #REBOOT TREND IT OUThttps://t.co/A1K2nDsnXJ

You can listen to “[Reboot]” below and check out the lyrics.
Lyrics
I used to want to save you
Now I don’t.
I used to need your voice
And now I need to sleep alone.
You were supposed to be the first sigh
Worth all of the long nights
Turning on your high beams
Dying in your mood light.
I think I talk too much
I try to walk it off
But now you got your gloves
And now you boxed me out.
I’m out the ring
But the only ring I want
Is the ring around your finger
But your middle one’s up.
I’ve had enough
I try to brush it off
‘Cause you’re my confidante
So let’s talk
Share secrets.
I’ve got some dirty laundry
Can you keep it?
I never promised you your dream boy
I’m better as your chew toy,
Love, love, love.
The heart I gave, it was a decoy
I’m just here to destroy
Love, love, love.
I never promised you your dream boy
I’m better as your chew toy,
Love, love, love.
The heart I gave, it was a decoy
I’m just here to destroy
Love, love, love.
You’re not worth my color
You’re not worth another
Headache, you’re dead weight
You’re gonna be just like your mother.
I tried to make life a movie
Yeah, here, I got you a preview
I had 101 wishes
And lost them all on you.
