That Thing You Like About Yourself (Is Hurting You) (Featuring Melanie Whittle)

from Needs Help (Deluxe Edition) by The Very Most

/

lyrics

Everything feels off.
Maybe we should take a trip.
My everyday places are making me so sad.
Intractable problems.
We only make them worse and worse.
By doing the things we do as often as we do.

Trying harder.
Always trying harder.
You can get a disorder, and
You'll never know why.

What should we do about a thing I like about myself?
A thing that also happens to be hurting me?
The dumb things I used to think.
My reductionist twenties were like an internet debate
I lost twenty posts ago.

Trying harder.
Always trying harder.
You'll wreck your well-being, and
You'll never know why.

There is something always hanging 'round
The back of your mind, and it
Doesn't love you
Doesn't even like you.
It's making noise for no reason at all.

The most important things in life are cliched.
Some are even cross-stitched on your aunt's wall.

Trying harder.
Always trying harder.
All your organs will fail, and
You'll never know why.

There is something always hanging 'round
The back of your mind, and it's
Grating.
Nagging.
Stop returning its calls.
