“Hate Myself” was released on January 12, 2021 and is the third single off of dodie’s debut studio album Build a Problem.
In the pre-release livestream for the music video, dodie said “It’s actually about passive aggression, it’s interesting, it’s more about when- I think it’s like a feeling that I...
[Verse 1]
Could it be different? Did I ruin the day?
Oh, do you look angry? Oh, what did I say?
Filling in the gaps, build a problem that
Neither of us needs, something wrong with me (Mmh-mmh-mmh)
I'm getting desperate, losing my mind
Oh, how do we get here, every time?
One will fold their arms, one will do the dance
Really is no need, something wrong with me
[Pre-Chorus]
No, I don't think I can help it (Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!)
(Nope)
[Chorus]
Oh, so illogical, I'm not magical, I can't read your mind
But how can you not hear the whole conversation?
I have, sitting still with a brain on fire
I know, it's a me-thing
Eyes closed - isn't helping
When you go quiet, I hate myself
When you go quiet, I hate myself
[Verse 2]
Look at you sideways, playing a game
Oh, what if I laugh now, think I'm insane
Filling in the gaps, build a problem that
Neither of us need, something wrong with me
Pushing a boundary, something to prove
Strong expectation, you already lose
Oh, one will fold their arms, one will do the dance
Really is no need, something wrong with me
[Pre-Chorus]
No, I don't think I can help it (K)
[Chorus]
Oh, so illogical, I'm not magical, I can't read your mind (Read your mind)
But how can you not hear the whole conversation?
I have, sitting still with a brain on fire (Brain on fire)
I know, it's a me-thing
Eyes closed - isn't helping
When you go quiet, I hate myself
When you go quiet, I hate myself
[Bridge]
Give me a mystery
Maybe they'll bloom for me
It's always the quiet ones
Oh, something here must be done
I'm open and ready here
I don't think they get me, dear
I'm only proving how
I'm only worth losing now
Give me a mystery, maybe they'll bloom for me
It's always the quiet ones, something here must be done
I'm hoping I'm ready here, don't think they get me, dear
(When you go quiet, I hate myself)
Don't think they get me, dear
(No I don't...)
Give me a mystery, maybe they'll bloom for me
It's always the quiet ones, something that must be done
I'm hoping I'm ready here, don't think they get me, dear
(When you go quiet, I hate myself)
Don't think they get me, dear
[Outro]
No, I don't think (Don't think they get me here)
I can help it (Don't think they get me here)
No, I don't think (Don't think they get me here)
I can help it (When you go quiet, I hate myself)
(Don't think they get me here)
No, I don't think (Don't think they get me here)
I can help it (Don't think they get me here)
I don't think (Don't think they get me here)
I can help it (When you go quiet, I hate myself)
No, I don't think
I can help it
(Mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm)

“Hate Myself” is an inner monologue of someone who seems to find themselves in relationships of any kind with people who deal with their feelings internally – unfortunately resulting in assuming the issue is with them.
The music video is filmed over the span of a few days in the beautiful seaside v...
This was written on a guitalele, and it was definitely inspired by HAIM and [2020 track] ‘Now I’m in It.’ I just thought the lyric ‘When you go quiet, I hate myself’ was so funny. It was certainly something I was feeling but didn’t know how to deal with, so I just laughed it off in that line.
