[Verse 1]
Now what, my darling? Two years have passed
God, twenty-seven's still cryin' in cars
Stop planning our lives on things that haven't been said
We're not dead
[Pre-Chorus]
Waitin' for the
Count down, happy birthday
Dry heave, I am not okay
Brain rot in a pretty dress
I'm a hot mess
Wake up, do the same thing
Break up, then we're dancing
Why am I so alright to do it again and again?
[Chorus]
I can't fight it, you try drivin'
Exit to the end in sight, dear
Make it ugly, put on a show
Hack it that I hate you so that I can let go
[Verse 2]
One more reunion (One more)
And goodbye again (Goodbye again)
Oh God, I'd be lying if I didn't want ten
Stop drafting replies to things that haven't been said
Hе's not dead
[Pre-Chorus]
Still waitin' for the
Count down, happy new yеar
Don't know, I am still unclear
Where'd I go? Take a fuckin' guess
I'm a hot mess
Wake up, do the same thing
Break up, then we're dancin'
Why am I so alright to do it again and again?
[Chorus]
I can't fight it, you try drivin'
Exit to the end in sight, dear
Make it ugly, put on a show
Hack it that I hate you so that I can let go
[Bridge]
Let me let go
Let me let go
Let me let go
[Chorus]
I can't fight it, you try drivin'
Exit to the end in sight, dear
Make it ugly, put on a show
Hack it that I hate you so that I can let go
[Outro]
Let me let go (Let me let go)
Let me let go (Ahh)
(Let me let go)

“Hot Mess” is the result of the messiest, most intense, painful and exhilarating start to the year. It’s a wonky, dramatic but playful cycle – charging forward but around and around, again and again. There are flickers of real moments (I really did dry heave after reading a text) in an overall despe...
