“Psycho” marks the return of pop singer & songwriter, Lauren Aquilina, after a two year break. It’s the lead single off a forthcoming EP that Aquilina plans to release in early 2019.
Lyrically, the song is a playful rebuttal to an ex-lover’s comments that the singer is “psycho” in which the sin...
[Verse 1]
Midnight, after dark, Jack and Coke and pour my heart out, heart out
Oh so suddenly I’m on the front steps of your house, your house
Hey, how’d I get here?
It’s out of my control, and
I can’t see clear, the next thing that I know
I’m climbing up the walls
I know what I’m looking for now
But you’re out
And God can’t help me now
[Chorus]
Maybe I’m a psycho just like you said I was
You got me right, but baby it’s not my fault
Oh and I know and I know and I know that I been acting so strange
But you should know that you’re the one who made me this way
[Post-Chorus]
Psycho, psycho
[Verse 2]
Walking tragedy dressed up like the girls you dream of, dream of
It’s not lunacy that I know where you’re gonna be, love, it’s easy enough
Cause I followed your car, now I know where she lives
Please send my regards to your new favorite thing
I’ll add her to the list of the girls you’re fuckin’ with now
But karma comes around
And God can’t help you now
[Chorus]
Maybe I’m a psycho just like you said I was
You got me right, but baby it’s not my fault
Oh and I know and I know and I know that I been acting so strange
But you should know that you’re the one who made me this way
Yeah I’m a psycho just like you said I’d be
Not gonna fight the way I am naturally
Oh and I know and I know and I know that I been acting so strange
But you should know that you’re the one who made me this way
[Post-Chorus]
Psycho, psycho
[Bridge]
Cause you can’t love someone then just let go, no, no
So when you’re by yourself, you’re not alone
Psst, hello
[Chorus]
Maybe I’m a psycho just like you said I was
You got me right, but baby it’s not my fault
Oh and I know and I know and I know that I been acting so strange
But you should know that you’re the one who made me this way
Yeah I’m a psycho just like you said I’d be
Not gonna fight the way I am naturally
Oh and I know and I know and I know that I been acting so strange
But you should know that you’re the one who made me this way
[Outro]
You made me this way
You made me this way
You made me this way (psycho, psycho)
You made me this way
You made me this way
You made me this way

I wrote it last August — a year ago. I wrote it with Jonny Hockings, who has become my writing partner in a lot of things. He’s very good. We wrote it with just a bass guitar and vocal, and that’s how it stayed for ages, and I thought it was one o...
