Beats is all of my self-doubt and self-confidence living together in a poppy little package. It’s all the voices in my head speaking at once. I get so worked up sometimes it can be hard to see things for what they really are. I think this song is basically saying that you can be deeply vulnerable an...
[Verse 1]
Oh I think it's courageous of you
Your thoughts are contagious
When you don’t really know what to do
But you keep going through the stages
[Pre-Chorus 1]
'nd anyway, anyday
I wish I was (ooo)
Anyone else instead of myself
Oh I keep feeling...
[Chorus]
(the beats, beats)
You're gonna hurt yourself, it’s not your birthday baby
(the beats, beats)
If there is nothing wrong, why am I down so long?
[Verse 2]
If I could ever be honest
There is not enough space or time
I could row down the river of our secrets for miles, and miles, and miles
Said there is no virtue with no drawn lines
You said that no one could hurt you, but I do it all the time
[Chorus x2]
(the beats, beats)
You're gonna hurt yourself, it's not your birthday baby
(the beats, beats)
If there is nothing wrong, why am I down so long?
[Instrumental]
[Pre-Chorus 2]
'nd anyway, anyday
I wish I was (ooo)
Anyone else instead of myself
I wish I was (ooo)
And anyway, anyday (I wish I was (ooo))
Anyone else instead of myself
And I keep feeling...
[Chorus x2]
(the beats, beats)
You're gonna hurt yourself, it's not your birthday baby
(the beats, beats)
If there is nothing wrong, why am I down so long?
