Lyrics:
Well I went through my list of friends and found
I had no one to tell
Of this overwhelming clean feeling
Strange serenity
When I saw the girl looked just like me
And it broke my heart, the lengths you went
To hold me
To get to have me, ‘cause
I haven’t given you what you need
You wanted me but couldn’t reach me
So you went into your memory-relived
All the ways you still want me
I haven’t given you what you need
You wanted me but couldn’t reach me
I’m sorry it should’ve been me
I’d be going ‘bout my day, until a hand
Would come and lift me out
And drop me in the middle of a labyrinth
Where I’d be stuck a while
When I saw the girl looked just like me, I thought
Must be lonely loving someone
Trying to find their way out of a maze
Oh I know
I haven’t given you what you need
You wanted me but couldn’t reach me
So you went into your memory-relived
All the ways you still want me
I haven’t given you what you need
You wanted me but couldn’t reach me
I’m sorry it should’ve been me
I’m sorry it should’ve been me

Thank you so much for the info..going to check it out now!!

"well, i went through my list of friends, i found i had no one to tell" so relatable 💀
Right tho
help

I mean you could
Literally the situation I’m on 😃. Mitski cannot get away with always being on point with my feelings that I still don’t know how to express
Mitski te amo, tu música es arteeeeee 😭😭💕
This is like a sad abba song…I love it
I LOVE YOU MITSKI
No cuz i literally love ALL her songs, mitski my beloved
Mi canción favorita hasta el momento, no paro de escucharla. Te amo mitski
This sort of made me cry because it reminds me of my mom who always tries to talk to me but I hardly respond to her and talk to her and we used to be close but now I don't even talk to her anymore
i think that's the best song among new(today's) others
love u
Mitski ❤️❤️
That James Jamerson style bassline is doing it for me.
This reminds me of ABBA in all the best ways
This slaps!
QUE BUEN INICIO DE DIA
banger
ameeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
No manches q rolota
Te amoooo
i haven’t given you what you neeed🙁
this genuinely sounds like its a parallel to washing machine heart. "When I saw the girl looked just like me"..? " "Baby, though I've closed my eyes, I know who you pretend I am, I know who you pretend I am" this cant be a coincidence man
I think The og is more like the idea of her he has is false and the second is like he’s literally trying to pretend he’s this girl he misses and re enacting their relationship. It’s the same premise of idealization.
It feels like this song is from the ex gfs perspective, and wmh is From the new girls perspective, and the boy here has intense issues 😭
In some ways, I think it is also similar Goodbye My Danish Sweetheart
Mitski serving us a whole album after dropping Stay Soft?? That's some queen behavior
when i saw all of the notifications i knew it was about to be over for me
the release date for the album was set months ago... it wasnt a surprise 😂
@@nicocopito1847 we didn’t know what time the album was coming out…. only that it was on the fourth….. it’s not always released at midnight the only thing she set a time for was the stay soft video….. so….
@@graysonhubbard3979 idk about your country but in mine it actually was released the 4th at 12 am so... 🤨
No right exactly. She's working so hard and she's doing so well, i love her
how can this song be upbeat and sad at the same time
Mitski is powerful
it's mitskis charm
THATS LITERALLY MITSKI'S BRAND OF MUSIC
this sentence describes laurel hell in a nutshell
i think it sounds like ABBA
"Must be lonely loving someone
Trying to find their way out of a maze". WHAT A BEAUTIFULLY HEARTBREAKING LINE FOR A TUNE THAT SOUNDS LIKE SOMEONE DRANK LIQUID GLITTER WHILE PLAYING IT -
I feel this to my core.
My partner found me in the maze and I held too tight to their hand. .
Came to the point where they couldn’t hold on anymore and left.
My heart aches for me not being there but I was really lost in the maze that I didn’t even realize I was!
@@stephanieh5478 so truee
Funniest simile I’ve heard in a while
IT'S DEFINITELY MY FAVORITE SONG FROM THIS ALBUM
HONESTLY
SAMEE
I havent listenend to all yet but so far it is too🤭

@itsnotkaty RIGHTTTT
"Must be lonely loving someone Trying to find their way out of a maze" ummh must be a.... *lonesome love*
OMG the peppy sound in this is so nice...i love how upbeat it sounds i already know its gonna be one of my favorites
RIGHT ITS UPBEAT AND STILL EXPRESSES SO MUCH
FINALLY AHHHH IM LISTENING TO THIS ON REPEAT FOR THE NEXT 6 YEARS.
Agreed
same
ONG 🗣🗣
5 years remaining
me toooooooo
This was a fun song until I realised I look like his ex…
This is giving me ABBA vibes, in the best way possible. She even had that iconic Dancing Queen piano the "dudu dudu dudu" it's hard to explain but you know what I mean! One of the best songs on the album!
That’s what I thought too! This song also reminds me of elton johns “I’m still standing”
to me it's identical to maneater
@@kim-vx6uj "maneater" vibes for sure!
@@kim-vx6uj you’re actually so right, wow
Exactly what I was thinking, like this has to be inspired by them & it's so beautiful 😩❤️
Mitski never stays the same. I love how every album is completely different.
Ig its just all her always what she feels? Idk maybe that just what I want to think. But u are kinda right its almost Like she went through the 5 stages of grief
I just discovered this woman a minute ago and I'm already in love. 💜
buckle up!
its a bumpy ride. an emotional one
Oh god- I remember that
oh lord
ur in for a ride !!!
Verse 1]
Well I went through my list of friends and found
I had no one to tell
Of this overwhelming clean feeling
Strange serenity
[Pre-Chorus]
When I saw the girl looked just like me
And it broke my heart, the lengths you went to hold me
To get to have me, 'cause
[Chorus]
I haven't given you what you need
You wanted me but couldn't reach me
So you went into your memory
All the ways you still want me
I haven't given you what you need
You wanted me but couldn't reach me
I'm sorry it should’ve been me
[Verse 2]
I'd be going 'bout my day, until a hand
Would come and lift me out
And drop me in the middle of a labyrinth
Where I’d be stuck a while
thx
doing god's work
relive all the ways you still want me*
@@kuzureteyukumaeni The full lyrics are in the description. These aren’t even the correct lyrics.
Legend🙌🏼
When she mentions a labyrinth in the second verse, she is referring to a labyrinth of sounds and smells, misdirection and misfortune. A labyrinth with no exit, a maze with no prize. You don't even realize that you are trapped. Your lust for blood has driven you in endless circles, chasing the cries of children in some unseen chamber, always seeming so near, yet somehow out of reach, but you will never find them. None of you will. This is where your story ends.
And to you, my brave volunteer, who somehow found this job listing not intended for you, although there was a way out planned for you, I have a feeling that's not what you want. I have a feeling that you are right where you want to be. I am remaining as well. I am nearby. This place will not be remembered, and the memory of everything that started this can finally begin to fade away. As the agony of every tragedy should.
And to you monsters trapped in the corridors, be still and give up your spirits. They don't belong to you. For most of you, I believe there is peace and perhaps more waiting for you after the smoke clears. Although, for one of you, the darkest pit of Hell has opened to swallow you whole, so don't keep the devil waiting, old friend.
My daughter, if you can hear me, I knew you would return as well. It's in your nature to protect the innocent. I'm sorry that on that day, the day you were shut out and left to die, no one was there to lift you up into their arms the way you lifted others into yours, and then, what became of you. I should have known you wouldn't be content to disappear, not my daughter. I couldn't save you then, so let me save you now. It's time to rest - for you, and for those you have carried in your arms.
This ends for all of us.
End communication.
FREDDY FAZBEAR CO STARRING IN A SONG!?!?!?!?
You did not just quote the entire ending of fnaf 6 💀
HELP I THOUGHT THIS WAS A SERIOUS THING😭😭😭😭
The audacity of this is giving🤝💅
HELP ME

LYRICS:
Well, I went through my list of friends
And found I had no one to tell
Of this overwhelming clean feeling, strange serenity
When I saw the girl looked just like me
And it broke my heart
The lengths you went to hold me
To get to have me
'Cause, I haven't given you what you need
You wanted me but couldn't reach me
So you went into your memory
Relive all the ways you still want me
I haven't given you what you need
You wanted me but couldn't reach me
I'm sorry it should've been me
I'd be going 'bout my day until a hand
Would come and lift me out
And drop me in the middle of a labyrinth, where I'd be stuck a while
When I saw the girl looked just like me
I thought, "must be lonely loving someone"
Tryna to find their way out of a maze
Oh, I know
I haven't given you what you need
You wanted me but couldn't reach me
So you went into your memory
Relive all the ways you still want me
I haven't given you what you need
You wanted me but couldn't reach me
I'm sorry it should've been me
I'm sorry it should've been me
i love you MITSKI
This song feels like you’re discovering a new world in Super Mario Galaxy
nobody cares and i just want to vent.
years ago i've met a girl that we shared a lot in common, she looked lonely like me and we were happy spending time toghether, she started to like me and she was doing a lot to reach me, but i was so nervous i couldn't say anything when i had the chance, all because i'm a really insecure person and i just make things miserable for myself, she burnt out and lost interest eventually and i couldn't tell her how I felt at the time.
two years later and we talk sometimes but she is with a long time friend of her and i still like her and i would like to tell her but i already know the answer.
It should've been me.
if for some reason you finished this sorry for my bad english.
hey i care, and i hope you feel better now but i'll be praying for you man, i hope everything goes well for you and i pray that this will pass soon
He told me he chose them because I was“genuinely too good to be true” and he was terrified of hurting and losing me.(spoiler alert, he did both those things..)
mitski is a huge inspiration to me and I WILL produce a song for her one day.
reply this comment when that happens
Good luck
good luck!
@@kusuosaiki8966 thank you 🙏🏼 drop a sub and be apart of the journey!
@@김지수-f7e thank you 🙏🏼 drop a sub and be apart of the journey!
Mitski, I love your music so much. You're literally everything to me and literally the only artist I have obsessively listened to. You put things into words the way no other can, I feel envious of your angelic voice and your beauty. I love your music and your kind heart. I’m thirteen but I swear you're somebody I admire so much. When I was twelve I would imagine you, as a mother figure and I still do. I love you so much and admire you so much. Thank you for being the somebody that nobody could be.
This song definitely summed up my whole failed love life with this boy named Gabi. He really liked me, and I liked him too, but I didn't tell him that cause I was a coward and skeptical about the good things going on around me. I was so unsure about what decisions I should make that I ended up turning him down. Now he likes someone else that's "just like me." I still feel guilty and regretful for taking too much time to figure out what I had to do.
Gabi, sorry for not being clear and honest about my feelings. I still like you, but I hope the girl you're currently in love with will also reciprocate your feelings, and I hope she'll be more honest about it, unlike me.
This hurt my heart to read
En el minuto 2:03 se me ha puesto la piel de gallina, que temon definitivamente mi fav del album por ahora. TE AMO MITSKI
I was pleasantly surprised to hear this song playing at the grocery store I work at. I hope more and more of your songs reach an even wider audience, you deserve all the recognition and then some!
WE MAKING IT OUT OF LAUREL HELL WITH THIS ONE 🗣️🗣️‼️‼️🔥🔥🙏🙏
I DID NOT EXPECT THE BEAT OF THIS ONE OKAAYYY IM INTO IT
DANG I love the instrumentals of this! Kinda adds to the sassy-ness of “should’ve been me”, “you wanted me but couldn’t reach me”
I dont think its meant to he sassy
OH MY GOD I LOVE ALL OF THE ALBUM BUT THIS ONE JUST BLEW ME ALL THE WAY AWAY
Yes I’ve replayed it so many timessss
MITSKI HACES ARTEEEE
mitski, you’ve done it again… ur amazing
this song feels relatable on deep levels😭
Well, I went through my list of friends
And found I had no one to tell
Of this overwhelming clean feeling, strange serenity.
(It's like she's saying she could never tell her friends how her life changed into peace. And contentment.)
When I saw the girl looked just like me
( It sounds like she's talking about past herself or a friend she relates to about her past self.)
And it broke my heart
(It breaks her heart knowing what she went through what herself or this person who reminded her of herself went through.)
The lengths you went to hold me
To get to have me
( She talks about how she had to use different coping mechanisms to just reach her present self. How she had to fight her own thoughts to get where she is.)
'Cause, I haven't given you what you need
( She speaks to her past self the way one speaks to their child. Apologizing for not being there for herself the way she is with herself currently.
Perphaps she would be angry at herself for having negative thoughts and she would ill-treat herself. And constantly try to help herself too. But now she's changed and treats herself differently. Perphaps she copes differently now.)
You wanted me but couldn't reach me.
( She talks about how her past self needed her current self. A person who loves herself better, is filled with peace and contentment. Her past self wanted that but didn't get that instead her past self suffered.
Or perphaps she is refering to someone who loved her through her tough times and she was a mess to deal with. She speaks about how she wasn't her current good self for this person who loved her.)
So you went into your memory
Relive all the ways you still want me
( She is either speaking about how she used to love her old self before her sad self. Or how this person who loved past self would constantly think of the old her and not the messy her who was probably hurting her current relationship either with herself or this romantic partner she speaks of.
I haven't given you what you need
You wanted me but couldn't reach me
( She speaks about how she was someone unreachable. Even tho she was there she was stuck in her mind)
I'm sorry it should've been me
( She apologizes again for it not being her current self. Who is mentally healthy and peaceful.)
I'd be going 'bout my day until a hand
Would come and lift me out
And drop me in the middle of a labyrinth, where I'd be stuck a while
( Perhaps she lived her life normal until she got home and she would get lost in her thoughts. Where she would be stuck in those thoughts of maybe over thinking or sad thoughts,
Or she is speaking about how this person would end up making her over think because maybe they were a narcissistic partner)
When I saw the girl looked just like me
I thought, "Must be lonely loving someone"
Tryna to find their way out of a maze
( When she saw this girl who reminded her of herself she thought back on her past and how it hurt her to love either herself or being loved by someone else. She finds it was hard being loved because of her over thinking.)
Oh, I know
I haven't given you what you need
You wanted me but couldn't reach me
So you went into your memory
Relive all the ways you still want me
I haven't given you what you need
You wanted me but couldn't reach me
I'm sorry, it should've been me
I'm sorry, it should've been me
( She apologizes that she could not be the peaceful person she is today.)
Mitski es todo lo que está bien 💖 te amo bella, el álbum es hermoso

"I went off my list of friends and I found out I have no one"

I love this song and everytime i hear it it reminds me of September of 2023 and idk why but it's just such a great feeling and I've had this song on loop since forever, i love you Mitski
songs that sounds upbeat yet
the meaning behind the song is actually sad >>
went from "why not me" to "should've been me"
Currently showing my mom this song
what did she say abt it?? :3
كلشي حرفيا يطلع من ميتسكي كذا ابداع
ok but why is no one talking about the fact that this literally sounds as if mitski and abba made a collaboration
100k views YEEEEEAH
The first 20 seconds sound like a ringtone and I love it
THIS SONG IS JUST INCREDIBLE AS THE WHOLE ALBUM THANK YOU ARE WONDERFUL!
I can't describe why but this song feels like dancing around an empty car park building in the apocalypse
Yo llorando por las otras canciones
