This Isn’t Me Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Crawling under my skin, running out of oxygen
It's all a bit much, but I take it on the chin
Business class and movie stars, a special spoon for caviar
How do you like Paris so far?
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm nameless, and everybody here's so **** famous
Is it too late to say that I really hate this?
Shiny boots and silverware
Perfect people, I'll compare
Maybe I just don't care
[Chorus]
I feel so small (I feel so small)
This evening's only started
I wish you'd call (I wish you'd call)
Take me back to my apartment
[Post-Chorus]
'Cause this isn't me, this isn't me
I'm not here (I'm not here)
[Verse 2]
We can pretend that we're gonna be best friends
After tonight, I'll never see you again (Never see you, never see you again)
Well-adjusted to excess, talking all about success
Chauffeur to your next event
[Chorus]
I feel so small (I feel so small)
This evening's only started
I wish you'd call (I wish you'd call)
Take me back to my apartment
[Bridge]
Sycophants and luxury
Everyone's a somebody
And I wish you were with me
Pretending that we're VIP
Turning heads, you're left on read
Soon I'll escape right back to bed
With your head pressed against my chest
[Chorus]
I feel so small (I feel so small)
This evening's only started
I wish you'd call (I wish you'd call)
Take me back to my apartment
I feel so small (I feel so small)
This evening's only started
I wish you'd call (I wish you'd call)
Take me back to my apartment
[Outro]
'Cause this isn't me, this isn't me
I'm not here (I'm not here)
This isn't me, this isn't me, this isn't me
I'm not here (I'm not here)

What did Towa Bird say about "This Isn't Me"?
I moved to the U.S. in October 2021 and by February I was flown out to Paris for fashion week. Everyone there seemed to know each other, and I knew no one. Conversations didn’t feel authentic. Questions felt layered. ‘Who are you?’ felt like ‘Who can you be to me?’; ‘Where are you from?’ felt like ‘...
