“Nauseous” is the seventh track on Conan Gray’s upcoming fourth studio album Wishbone, set to release on August 15, 2025, via Republic Records. The song is part of a carefully crafted 12-track album that reflects Gray’s personal growth and signature emotional depth, blending intimate lyrics with evolving sonic styles.
This indie-pop gem, laced with ’90s radio pop and Oasis-inspired “Champagne Supernova” vibes, captures love’s overwhelming intensity with lyrics like “Your love is a threat / And I’m nauseous.” Unlike the rebellious wit of Crush Culture from Sunset Season, the cosmic yearning of Astronomy, or the tender resilience of Winner, Nauseous dives into angsty melodrama, blending confessional lyricism with bombastic production. Crafted with producer Noah Conrad, it reflects Wishbone’s introspective journey of self-discovery and relationships, written in Conan’s pajamas or tour venue basements. Dive into the Nauseous lyrics below, and feel the ache of love’s dizzying pull.

Lyrics of Nauseous by Conan Gray
[Verse 1]
You Just Wanna Dance
Feels Like Our Final Act
You’re Holding My Hand
My Mind Sees A Grizzly Trap
[Pre-Chorus]
I Know You, I’ve Seen You, I’ve Watched You Around
Everyone Trusts You, They Love You Out Loud
You Won’t Hurt A Fly, But We’re Flying Up Now
And All That Goes Up, Well, It’s Got To Come Down
[Chorus]
Your Love Is A Threat And I’m Nauseous
Scares Me To Death, How I Want It
Not Common Sense, But I’m Haunted
By People Who’ve Left, So You Scare Me To Death
Yeah, You Scare Me
[Verse 2]
With People Before, They Left Like A Falling Floor
And There As I Soared, I Vowed To Be Nevermore
Too Trusting And Loving, Depending And Kind
Behind Every Kiss Is A Jaw That Could Bite
And Maybe That’s Why I Feel Safe With Bad Guys
Because When They Hurt Me, I Won’t Be Surprised
[Chorus]
Your Love Is A Threat And I’m Nauseous
Scares Me To Death, How I Want It
Not Common Sense, But I’m Haunted
By People Who’ve Left, So You Scare Me To Death
Yeah, You Scare Me
[Bridge]
Maybe I’m Here Waiting For Someone
To Get Through My Years Of Trying To Trust Them
I Know That It’s In Me To Really Love Someone
But That’s Not A Thing That I Learned From My Loved Ones
(Oh)
[Chorus]
Your Love Is A Threat And I’m Nauseous
Scares Me To Death, How I Want It
It’s Not Common Sense, But I’m Haunted
By People Who’ve Left, So You Scare Me To Death
Yeah, You Scare Me
[Outro]
Yeah, You Scare Me
