Hey yall!
thanks for clicking, hope you enjoy!
_____________________________________________
Lyrics:
I, your name, do solemnly swear not to off myself
Think about offing myself
Or continue thinking about offing myself
Without reaching out for help
After listening to this song
Sometimes I see her on the sidewalk
Biking on the wet chalk
Spelling out their names
And I feel insane
Cause I know it's just a game
That I'm playing with my brain
I don't see her, but I see her
And I know it isn't real
But I fake it anyway
Pull a smile and wave
Nod and look away
Wait for it to fade
But it happens all the time
And people say it's fine
My roommate says they're killing us
But we're killing ourselves
And I'm surrounded by the...
Dead girls on the road
Dead girls on my phone
Dead girls
Where do they go?
All of the fuckin'
Dead girls all around
Dead girls in my town
Dead girls
I don't know
Dead girls
Where do they go?
And it'd be wrong to say I miss them
I didn't really know him
I just have a couple friends who say they knew him well
He seemed like something special
Really don't they all
I guess before you're gone it can be kind of hard to tell
I broke the fucking news
It wasn't mine to break
She cried and I was empty
It wasn't mine to say
There's dead kids
On the road
Dead kids in my phone
Dead kids
Where do they go?
I wanna be a
Dead kid with my friends
Dead kid home again
Dead kids
I don't know
You like them better dead
Better dead
Just say you want it like that
You like me better dead
Better dead
Gun against your head
You like them dead
And if all you ever see are dead girls
If all you hear is terrible news
Maybe it's not all about the dead girls
Maybe it's more about you
The living need attention too
Dead kids all the time
Dead kids in our prime
Dead kids
Where do they go?
I wanna be a dead girl like the rest
Dead girls are the best
That's why we're on every show
You like them better dead
Better dead
Just say you want it like that
You like me better dead
Better dead
Gun against your head
You like them dead

The shorter version sounds like a girl who's coping with the death of her friends/people around her who committed suicide and is considering doing the same. This version sounds like the same girl, but this time she's angry that no one's paying attention to the fact that it's hurting her as well and that no one cares about the fact that she's going through the same things they were.

“And if all you see are dead girls, if all you hear is terrible news, maybe it’s not all about the dead girls. Maybe it’s more about you.”
Such a smart verse.

[@jenniferpalacios7865]

i read this comment as this part came up 🤯🤯🤯

[@kevinkozlowski5429]

“He seemed like something special, really dont they all? I guess before you’re gone it can be kinda hard to tell.” God, such a good and relatable line.

[@drownedtrashrat3501]

*Me, @ my brain while listening to this song:* you can have _three_ minutes of emotion. After that we're going back to two trucks and ultimate showdown of ultimate destiny

[@MadsH5859]

You, you get it

[@user-ml6pm4ve3o]

tysm omg i haven’t been able to find a lyric video w the studio version 😭

[@lils5108]

Same that's why I made one 😭😭

[@user-ml6pm4ve3o]

Lils :) dog bless 😩😩🙏🏻

[@mushroomsaremyfriends4649]

Ventish (tw unaliving mention): Theres was this girl in maybe her sophmore or junior year and i was friends with her younger brothers and i never once talked to her. She killed herself over spring break and her brothers were heartbroken. A month or so passes and people say stuff like "Didnt you take stuff off her grave" or "didnt you say that she should kill herself" blaming me for her death when i didnt even know her, and its impacted me a lot...

[@lils5108]

Wow, im so sorry that happened

[@caki4695]

Dang, why would people even make such accusations?

[@Ashesinferno28]

I feel like this is a song that Veronica Sawyer would sing to Heather McNamara or something she’d write in her diary

[@clra.xoxo.]

YES. OMG

[@broncored]

OH MY GOD YEAH
whenever i listen to this i think of mcnamara's confession before lifeboat
''My sort-of boyfriend k1ll3d h1m$3lf because he was gay for his line-backer, and now my best friend is gone too'

[@kevinkozlowski5429]

Do you like weirdcore? Lofi? Glitchcore? Odd but also amazing lyrics? Aesthetic tunes? Bops? Well, Penelope Scott is here for you :)

[@lils5108]

Yesss

[@cw917]

thanks kevin

[@Rubydafreakingweirdo]

Don’t like weird or or glitchcore (don’t judge me lol) but Penelope Scott is the best. One of my favorites aside from bo burnham!

[@jadzyagarcia1584]

"and it'd be wrong to say i miss them, i didn't really know them, i just have a couple friends who say they knew them well" hits sooo hard because after my bsf lost her battle with suic!de a bunch of people were saying how much they missed her and were putting her name in their bios when they didnt even know her at all / only spoke to her once or twice

[@probably_noah9417]

I've lost two very close friends to suicide recently. I'm not doing well at all. I feel this song on a spiritual level

[@theincarnateofkurro]

stay strong

[@Rubydafreakingweirdo]

I’m sorry for your lost :(

[@MadsH5859]

I’m really sorry about your friend, I hope you’re doing better now :( Sending some hope or positivity your way

[@hellobye2824]

If I had to say what this song means to me, I'd say it's being a trans person. Half the people in the community are either consitering to die, or have attempted and we're all wanted dead anyways. Day after day I hear my people dying. I want to help people when I grow up, not be six feet under.
Dead kids. Everywhere.

My dad just found my suicidal notes and I said that the notes were just lyrics to this song

[@napstablookbutno666]

13 days late but- are you ok?

[@littlebird8251]

How does this not have more love??? Bruh

[@TheGeniusStudio]

When I was in my last year of high school, my friends older sister committed suicide and my friend was broken, he didn’t come to class for months. When he did come he was pale and sad, he really was sad and the year after he committed suicide and died. He left a note saying he was going to his sister. 😔

[@tv.girl.loverrr]

Love this song, it helped me when I was really depressed

[@thecrazys588]

Such a beautiful song

[@homicide8311]

They started liking him now that he's dead

[@emo-magic-core]

Underrated song

[@awesomedude8161]

The very first words before the song starts hit different for me. I'm not sure why but it's so... comforting?

[@Dessertsoul24]

My teacher said a kid dying at our school wasnt her problem

[@elliebee7998]

Why does it say that in the beginning? Like is that part of the song or..?

[@lils5108]

It is!

[@Cloudi_Rayne]

I'm not sure why but the backround is giving me secret series vibes -

[@Dessertsoul24]

I saw this thing and it said suicide thoughts are uncommon and it's more urgent after they act on it

[@LeilasCanadaAdventuresofficial]

Bro theres no penelope scott song that i dont like💀 there all good bro

[@Okaythanksig]

the background reminds me of stranger things and this song is amazing for the show

[@soraopenheimer266]

My fav part is from 00:01 to 3:18

[@SammyLawrencee]

I think this is about someone coping with the death of a friend

[@ELLE_Argent]

I have a question, what happens if you break a solemn swear :3
