Lyrics

I'm a fraud 'cause I hate my feelings

I feel like a fraud because I dislike my emotions

Not 'cause I'm edgy, 'cause they make my head spin

It's not about being rebellious, but my feelings overwhelm me

Hands start to shake, stomach drops

Physical reactions like trembling hands and a dropping stomach occur

I'd just like to feel things normal for once and

I just want to experience emotions in a regular, non-overwhelming way


No one's perfect, don't I know it

Acknowledging imperfection and self-awareness

The way you are, I just really hope they're wrong

Expressing hope that the judgments about someone's nature are incorrect

I think you want this, ask for a kiss

Suggesting a desire for intimacy by mentioning a kiss

I wake up feeling normal for once

Experiencing a rare moment of waking up feeling normal


I'm a fraud 'cause I hate my feelings

Reiterating the feeling of being fake due to an aversion to emotions

Not 'cause I'm edgy, 'cause they make my head spin

Emphasizing that it's not about a rebellious attitude but emotional struggle

Hands start to shake, stomach drops

Describing physical reactions to intense emotions

I'd just like to feel things normal for once

Expressing the desire for a more ordinary emotional experience


'Cause I'm built on fault lines

Metaphorically stating that the person is emotionally unstable

And I'm shaken, fragile

Conveying a sense of vulnerability and fragility

And when things go wrong, which they always do

Anticipating that things will go wrong as a consequence of emotional instability

The fault is mine, it's not for you

Taking responsibility for personal faults, separating them from others


No one's perfect, don't I know it

Acknowledging imperfection and self-awareness (repeated)

The way you are, I just really hope they're wrong

Expressing hope that judgments about someone's nature are incorrect (repeated)

I think you want this, ask for a kiss

Suggesting a desire for intimacy by mentioning a kiss (repeated)

I wake up feeling normal for once

Experiencing a rare moment of waking up feeling normal (repeated)

For once

Repeating the desire for a normal emotional experience


'Cause I'm built on fault lines

Metaphorically stating that the person is emotionally unstable (repeated)

And I'm shaken, fragile

Reiterating a sense of vulnerability and fragility (repeated)

And when things go wrong, which they always do

Anticipating that things will go wrong as a consequence of emotional instability (repeated)

It's not your fault, I won't blame you

Emphasizing that the blame for things going wrong is on the individual, not others
