Attractive Today Lyrics
I am wrecked, I am overblown.
I’m also fed up with the common cold.
But I just hate to say goodbye
To all the metaphors and lies
That have taken me years to come up with.
Say it's true; say you like me. (I like you.)
Just for the night, for me it's been eternity.
And as I gently sip this drink,
I think about my lack of future.
And all the places I could learn to fall in love.
I know I shouldn't waste my time.
But you've not been better designed,
And for some reason still think
I am wrecked, I am overblown.
I’m also fed up with the fucking common cold.
When I just want to feel alive,
For the first time in my life,
I just want to feel attractive today.
I’m also fed up with the common cold.
But I just hate to say goodbye
To all the metaphors and lies
That have taken me years to come up with.
Just for the night, for me it's been eternity.
And as I gently sip this drink,
I think about my lack of future.
And all the places I could learn to fall in love.
But you've not been better designed,
And for some reason still think
I am wrecked, I am overblown.
I’m also fed up with the fucking common cold.
When I just want to feel alive,
For the first time in my life,
I just want to feel attractive today.

I love how after the "say it's true, say you like me" part, you can hear a little "I like you" in the background, it's...for a lack of a better few words...really cute.
this song is short. feels weird listening to it since its so short heh..
the song sounds like he's saying how much he went through during the process of recording this album and that he wants us to like it.
this song is currently my "anthem". It is scarily true to whats been happening lately in my life. Excellent song.
i love how he includes being "fed up with the fucking common cold".....
and i love how they whisper "i like you"
i think it goes further than just wanting people to like his record. it's about having felt insecure for a really long time and waking up one day and wanting to like yourself. he doesn't care if people don't like him, it's only important if he feels attractive.
This is probably one of my top favorite songs on the new album. Its really short, but well done.
it's 'wishing i'd been better designed'
i'll just echo you guys - the 'i like you' bit is awesome. i agree with this being a song about insecurity, and thinking that if only i was attractive i could be happy and everything else will follow from that.
