Less than four months after releasing her EP Why Am I Like This?, Orla was back again with “Did It To Myself”, a lyrically downcast song which sees Orla blaming herself for the way a relationship ended.
The song was first heard in August by a group of dedicated fans in the top tier of Orla’s patreo...
[Verse 1]
I woke up to an empty bed
I took a walk to clear my head
I wished you were there instead
But then I shook it off
What the hell did I used to do?
I'm even starting to speak like you
And now you're living in my memory, living in my mouth
Living in the four fucking walls of my house
[Pre-Chorus]
I feel like a let-down
To not be your friend now
I-I feel like a let-down
And now you're gone, gone, gone
[Chorus]
I know I did it to myself
I know I did it to myself
I know I did it to myself
I know I
Oh, I know I did it to myself
I know I did it to myself
I know I did it to myself
I know I
[Verse 2]
Your personality's split in two
I fell in love with a half of you
And when you told me what you went through
I couldn't brush it off (Brush it off, brush it off, brush it off, brush it off)
I wonder, what are you doing now?
Defeats the point of shutting you out
And now my part of London feels so haunted
You gave me a power that I never even wanted
[Pre-Chorus]
You said, "I feel like a let-down
To not be your friend now"
I-I feel like a let-down
And now you're gone, gone, gone
[Chorus]
I know I did it to myself
I know I did it to myself
I know I did it to myself
I know I
Oh, I know I did it to myself (I-I)
I know I did it to myself (I-I)
I know I did it to myself (I-I)
I know I (I-I did it)
[Pre-Bridge]
Oh my god, you're everything I know
Let it sink in right now
Oh my god, you're everything I know
Get ready for the comedown
[Bridge]
Did it to myself
Did it to myself
Did it to myself
I know I-
Did it to myself (I-I)
Did it to myself (I-I)
Did it to myself (I-I)
I know I (I-I)
[Chorus]
I know I did it to myself (I-I)
I know I did it to myself (I-I)
I know I did it to myself (I-I)
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know (I-I)
I know I did it to myself (I-I)
I can't blame nobody else (I-I)
I know I did it to myself (I-I)
I know I
[Outro]
You said answer honestly
And I went with option B
I lost you and you lost me
I can't shake it off

it’s about my first experience of a properly broken heart, I remember it feeling like the most visceral thing & instantly understanding why so many songs have been written about how it feels to suddenly be on your own. the worst part was I felt sad and heartbroken and shit and had no one to blam...
