“Its Not Your Fault” is about a relationship that’s a repetitive and boring cycle.
Maggie stated in an interview with Zach Sang that the song was the last one to be created, around midway through 2020.
In the same interview, the singer talked about the meaning of the song.
This is about that repe...
[Verse 1]
Feels like I'm goin' insane
Take me to the bed and get me outta my brain
So sick of feelin' this way
Should I go or should I stay?
Don't know what I can say
Let me sleep it off, we can try another day
Don't wanna make a mistake
Should I go or should I stay?
[Pre-Chorus]
I fell into a distraction
One minute 'til it comes crashin' down
Need more than just satisfaction
Satisfaction
[Chorus]
It's not your fault
I'm better on my own
I'm not the girl you knew
Not tryna break your heart
Sometimes, good things fall apart
Yeah, you don't feel like home
Like something I've outgrown
Think I'm better on my own
Maybe I'm better off alone
[Verse 2]
Really wanna get away
Think I need to take some space
And I feel so suffocated
Feel the same like everyday
Conversations on replay
I just need to take a break
Take a break, take a break
[Pre-Chorus]
I fell into a distraction
One minute 'til it comes crashin' down
Need more than just satisfaction
Satisfaction
[Chorus]
It's not your fault
I'm better on my own
I'm not the girl you knew
Not tryna break your heart
Sometimes, good things fall apart
Yeah, you don't feel like home
Like something I've outgrown
Think I'm better on my own
Maybe I'm better off alone
[Bridge]
I fell into a distraction
One minute 'til it comes crashin'
Need more than just satisfaction
[Chorus]
It's not your fault
I'm better on my own
I'm not the girl you knew
Not tryna break your heart
Sometimes, good things fall apart
Yeah, you don't feel like home
Like something I've outgrown
Think I'm better on my own
Maybe I'm better off alone
