‘Self-Destructive’ is Mothica’s second single from her sophomore EP, “Heavy Heart”. The song is about the struggles of a relationship falling apart, due to the ex of the singer’s partner. She suggests that everything would be alright, if only she was the one to meet her partner before the ex did.
[Chorus]
I don’t wanna wait
I don’t wanna wait
But I know that it’s too soon
I could run away
But I wanna stay
So I gotta play it cool
[Pre-Chorus]
If only I had been the one to meet you first
But knowing I was second only makes me hurt
And every time you say her name it makes it worse
So maybe we should stop
We can’t help it if we want this
Are we selfish? are we self-destructive?
We can’t help it if we want this
Are we selfish? are we self-destructive?
[Chorus]
I don’t wanna wait
I don’t wanna wait
But I know that it’s too soon
I could run away
But I wanna stay
So I gotta play it cool
[Verse 2]
If we never try
If we never try
Then I guess we’ll never know
Lying to ourselves
Promise not to tell
It’s out of our control
[Pre-Chorus]
If only I had been the one to meet you first
But knowing I was second only makes me hurt
And every time you say her name it makes it worse
So maybe we should stop
We can’t help it if we want this
Are we selfish? Are we self-destructive?
We can’t help it if we want this
Are we selfish? are we self-destructive?
[Chorus]
I don’t wanna wait
I don’t wanna wait
But I know that it’s too soon
I could run away
But I wanna stay
So I gotta play it cool
[Pre-Chorus]
Only I had been the one to meet you first
But knowing I was second only makes me hurt
And every time you say her name it makes it worse
So maybe we should stop
We can’t help it if we want this
Are we selfish? Are we self-destructive?
We can’t help it if we want this
Are we selfish? are we self-destructive?
[Chorus]
I don’t wanna wait
I don’t wanna wait
But I know that it’s too soon
I could run away
But I wanna stay
So I gotta play it cool
I don’t wanna wait
I don’t wanna wait
But I know that it’s too soon
I could run away
But I wanna stay
So I gotta play it cool
