[Verse 1]
Oh my god
Wish I was thin
Wish I was a normal human being
I'm just like them
Stuck in the dirt
I am a victim of my own self-worth
[Chorus]
And now I wanna take it back
I wanna take it back
I wanna take it back to when I was so dumb and so innocent
[Verse 2]
Oh my god
Wish I was black
Wish I had soul when my music attached
I am so white
I shine like the sun
Just like with Eve count it down to the one
[Chorus]
And I wanna take it back
I wanna take it back
I wanna take it back to when I was so dumb and so innocent
[Verse 3]
Oh my god
Wish I could think
Wish I could do something smarter than sing
But I'm just a face
Painted in mud
Don't try for perfect it's never enough
[Bridge]
I'm just hanging with my head down
I'm just hanging with my head down
I'm just hanging with my head down
I'm just hanging with my head down
[Chorus]
I wanna take it back
I wanna take it back
I wanna take it back to when I was so dumb and so innocent
[Verse 4]
Oh my god
Wish I was dead
Wish I could turn off the noise in my head
Oh my god, wish I could breathe
Enough air in my lungs to muster a scream
Oh my god, wish I was numb
The weight on my back didn't feel like a ton
Oh my god, wish I could pray
Believe in the words your religions all say
Oh my god, wish I could swim
Cause I'm gonna drown in depression again
Oh My God was written by Ben Phillips & Taylor Momsen.
Oh My God was produced by Kato Khandwala.
The Pretty Reckless released Oh My God on Fri Sep 09 2016.
Taylor Momsen spoke about the song in an interview with Loudwire published on October 26, 2016:
I think “Oh My God” kind of wrote itself quickly but it’s also something I worked on for about two years, but the core of it really came fast.
