Sky Ferreira – Everything Is Embarrassing Lyrics 12 years ago
It seems as though she is frustrated from unrequited feelings. For instance when she says, "Maybe if you let me be your lover/ maybe if you tried then I would not bother" suggests that she feels as if the person in question returned how she felt then maybe she would lose the infatuation.
The title "Everything is Embarrassing" suggests that the singer is overanalyzing how her actions in front of her love interest. No matter what she does she always makes the wrong move. "I've been hating everything, everything that could have been/ could have been my anything,/ now everything is embarrassing". She realized her efforts are futile, and regrets it. Exasperated, she suggests that the person could easily appeased her. Instead she is left with this confusing feeling of understanding that everything she does is in vain, and the overwhelming compulsion to try to win this persons attention. All in all it leaves her feeling empty, and well--embarrassed.
