On “messier”, McRae sings about a relationship that she can’t leave or end, because they are the only one who understands McRae enough to know how to hurt her the worst. “messier” is a messed-up love ballad which was teased on a TikTok live on October 28th, 2022, and again on TikTok on March 31st, 2...
[Verse 1]
Tell me, tell me somethin' that I don't know already
'Cause, baby, you can talk in circles for hours
Make a good day sour
Then you look me, look me, straight into my eyes
Say that you're sorry
How could I not believe in you?
You said it was safe to do
We both know this happens every time, every time
You tell me a lie, I'll tell you five, uh
Which one of us today is gonna cry, gonna cry?
Back and forth, we're goin' at it, burnin' it alive
[Pre-Chorus]
You're the only one who can boil my blood
And make that shit cut
'Cause you know that I'm always yours
I'm so in love
It's a punch to thе gut, could never be donе
Still I'm always wantin' more
[Chorus]
You say that I'm a mess, oh
Just wait till I make it hurt
'Cause, babe, last time I checked
The two of us were messier-er-er
Were messier-er-er
[Verse 2]
Oh, why'd you say that?
Can't believe you thought it's fine to say that
Couldn't care less for one second
Now you're all possessive
So I'm walkin' out, sayin', "I'm so done"
And you're lookin' like a fool in the restaurant
You're runnin' outside, you're pullin' my arm
Not sure if my mom would call this love
[Pre-Chorus]
You're the only one who can boil my blood
And make that shit cut
'Cause you know that I'm always yours
I'm so in love
It's a punch to the gut, could never be done
Still I'm always wantin' more
[Chorus]
You say that I'm a mess, oh
Just wait till I make it hurt
'Cause, babe, last time I checked
The two of us were messier-er-er
Were messier-er-er
[Bridge]
We're too stuck in our pride
Say the worst 'cause I'm right
There's no one else I'd rather lie right to
We're too stuck in our pride
Say the worst 'cause I'm right
There's no one else, I might die for you (Ooh)
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause you're the only one who can boil my blood
And make that shit cut
'Cause you know that I'm always yours
I'm so in love
A punch to the gut, could never be done
Still I'm always wantin' more
[Chorus]
You say that I'm a mess, oh
Just wait till I make it hurt
'Cause, babe, last time I checked
The two of us were messier-er-er
Were messier-er-er
Were messier
[Outro]
We both know this happens every time, every time
You tell me a lie, I'll tell you five

I wrote this song in the shower in 20 minutes. I ended up finding a weird YouTube beat and wrote all the melodies on guitar. My producer added some chords, and I knew I wanted a song called “messier”. This song touches on the idea of two people together being way more of a mess together, even when t...
