Heartache Harmony: Navigating Love's Echoes in Millie Reiss' Bellyache
Lyrics
I've got a bellyache and i don't know how to fix it
I'm experiencing discomfort, and I don't know how to resolve it.
I've got some scars you left and i don't know how to stitch it
There are emotional wounds from your actions, and I'm unsure how to heal them.
I just want to know what makes them turn their backs on me
I'm curious about the reasons people turn away from me.
I just want to know what makes them all just leave me
I want to understand why people abandon me.
I want to be enough for you
I desire to be sufficient for you.
I want to be enough for me
I aspire to be enough for myself.
But I can't seem to be enough for anybody
Despite my efforts, I feel inadequate for everyone.
I would rip out my own heart and hold it out for you
I would go to great lengths, even sacrificing my own well-being, for your approval.
But I feel like I deserve to stay locked in my room
Despite my willingness to sacrifice, I feel unworthy and isolated.
I have a bellyache and no pepto bismol
I'm experiencing physical discomfort without a remedy.
Laying by my phone at four am why didn't you call
I waited by the phone, questioning why you didn't reach out at 4 am.
Are you even aware that I exist
I wonder if you are aware of my existence.
It's okay if you don't cause I'm used to it
I'm accustomed to being overlooked, so it's okay if you are unaware.
You feel like a bellyache
You are likened to a persistent discomfort, difficult to shake off.
One that I can't seem to shake
Expressing the difficulty of overcoming the persistent emotional pain you cause.
Please just tell me it's okay
Pleading for reassurance that everything is acceptable.
So I can finally say
Desiring confirmation to find closure.
I have a bellyache
I'm still experiencing emotional discomfort.
Do you know how to fix it?
Seeking a solution to my ongoing emotional distress.
I have a scar she left
I carry emotional wounds from a past relationship.
Do you know how to stitch it?
Looking for assistance in healing the scars left by someone.
I hate all my exes
Expressing dislike and frustration towards past romantic partners.
All those text messages
Reflecting on negative experiences with text messages from ex-partners.
Im done with the bullshit
Expressing a desire to move on from relationship-related issues.
Can you be my first aid kit
Asking for support and comfort to deal with emotional distress.
I have a bellyache and you just fixed it
Expressing that someone has provided relief from the emotional pain.
I have some scars and I think you just stitched it
Suggesting that someone has helped in healing emotional scars.
I like to think that maybe I'm enough for you
Hoping to be enough for someone.
But to this day I won't ever know if that's true
Uncertainty about whether one's efforts to be enough are successful.
