This song is alluding to the subject either self-harming or doing some other destructive behavior to gain attention. They are desperate for validation from other people and believe that they will only get that when they are “sick”, in whatever form he means in this song. Flatsound does not agree wit...
Start from the beginning
Hi, my name is Mitchell Welling
I'm nineteen years old, I am a musician
Would you like to hear a song?
Hi, my name is none of your concern
Just listen and judge me for what you think I'm worth
And you said, "I like the way your fingers play the chords
I like the way you make me feel at home."
Woah
I heard you're at it again, I just called to say I never left
And good luck, good luck, good luck, good luck, good luck
I heard you needed some
If your father could see the mess you made
He wouldn't like it very much
You're playing a game entitled
"Hey, they're gonna like me when I'm sick!"
Just don't lie in the bed you made yourself
And expect me to tuck you in
'Cause I won't
Because I liked the way my fingers played with yours
Yeah, I liked the way you made me feel at home
Woah, woah
