I have a feeling this song is about ex-bandmate Z Berg. On June 17, Charlotte tweeted about this song saying “At one point we have all had ‘that’ person in our lives. If not, you’re lucky. I did up until my early 20’s, but that shit isn’t cute at any age.”
When Charlotte left The Like, she was 22 y...
[Verse 1]
Da do do, da do do, da do do, da do do
Da do do, da do do, da do
Da do do, da do do, da do do, da do do
Da do do, da do do, da do
She looks in the mirror
And thinks, "Thank God, today I look so thin"
Then she puts on her makeup
Going out without it would be like a sin
[Pre-Chorus]
God, where do I begin?
You've got it all mixed up, girl
You don't care what's under someone's skin
But being thinner always wins
[Chorus]
Your life won't stand still
Can't take your eyes off it like a car crash
When it all catches up to you
We won't stop you from dying
Things never turn out just like you want them to
But I forgot you're always right
So keep pretending like everything's great
And just keep on lying
To yourself
[Verse 2]
Da do do, da do do, da do do, da do do
Da do do, da do do, da do
Da do do, da do do, da do do, da do do
Da do do, da do do, da do
When she goes to a party
All she wants to do is get undressed
So the boys and girls see her
Their jealousy and love is her greatest success
[Pre-Chorus]
Wouldn't expect any less
'Cause you're so self-obsessed
We all know you're not a good person at all
'Cause all you think about is you
[Chorus]
Your life won't stand still
Can't take your eyes off it like a car crash
When it all catches up to you
We won't stop you from dying
Things never turn out just like you want them to
But I forgot you're always right
So keep pretending like everything's great
And just keep on lying
To yourself
[Verse 3]
Da do do, da do do, da do do, da do do
Da do do, da do do, da do
Da do do, da do do, da do do, da do do
Da do do, da do do, da do
She powders her nose
The nights blend into one in her little head
She's the life of the party
She could go to sleep but she'd rather fuck instead
[Pre-Chorus]
In her boyfriend's bed
But it's not him, it's his best friend
But why'd that be important to you?
When you don't care whose lives you screw
[Chorus]
Your life won't stand still
Can't take your eyes off it like a car crash
When it all catches up to you
We won't stop you from dying
Things never turn out just like you want them to
But I forgot you're always right
So keep pretending like everything's great
And just keep on lying
To yourself
[Outro]
(Da do do, da do do, da do do, da do do
Da do do, da do do, da do)
To yourself
(Da do do, da do do, da do do, da do do
Da do do, da do do, da do)
Lying, lying, lying, lying
(Da do do, da do do, da do do, da do do
Da do do, da do do, da do)
Lying, lying, lying to yourself
(Da do do, da do do, da do do, da do do
Da do do, da do do, da do)
Why're you always lying to yourself
