I’m a Mess Lyrics
Everything's been so messed up here lately
Pretty sure he don't wanna be my baby
Oh, he don't love me, he don't love me, he don't love me, he don't love me
But that's OK
'Cause I love me, yeah, I love me, yeah, I love me, yeah, I love myself anyway (hey)
Everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be OK
It's gonna be a good, good life
That's what my therapist say
Everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be just fine
It's gonna be a good, good life
I'm a mess, I'm a loser
I'm a hater, I'm a user
I'm a mess for your love, it ain't new
I'm obsessed, I'm embarrassed
I don't trust no one around us
I'm a mess for your love, it ain't new
Nobody shows up unless I'm paying
Have a drink on me cheers to the failing
Oh, he don't love me, he don't love me
He don't love me, he don't love me
But that's okay
Cause I love me, yeah, I love me
Yeah, I love me, yeah, I love myself anyway
Hey
Everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be okay
It's gonna be a good, good life
That's what my therapist say
Everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be just fine
It's gonna be a good, good life
I'm a mess, I'm a loser
I'm a hater, I'm a user
I'm a mess for your love, it ain't new
I'm obsessed, I'm embarrassed
I don't trust no one around us
I'm a mess for your love, it ain't new
Everything's gonna be alright, alright
Everything's gonna be just fine, just fine
It's gonna be a good, good life
I'm a mess, I'm a loser
I'm a hater, I'm a user
I'm a mess for your love, it ain't new
I'm obsessed, I'm embarrassed
I don't trust no one around us
I'm a mess for your love, it ain't new
Pretty sure he don't wanna be my baby
Oh, he don't love me, he don't love me, he don't love me, he don't love me
But that's OK
'Cause I love me, yeah, I love me, yeah, I love me, yeah, I love myself anyway (hey)
Everything's gonna be OK
It's gonna be a good, good life
That's what my therapist say
Everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be just fine
It's gonna be a good, good life
I'm a hater, I'm a user
I'm a mess for your love, it ain't new
I'm obsessed, I'm embarrassed
I don't trust no one around us
I'm a mess for your love, it ain't new
Have a drink on me cheers to the failing
Oh, he don't love me, he don't love me
He don't love me, he don't love me
But that's okay
Cause I love me, yeah, I love me
Yeah, I love me, yeah, I love myself anyway
Hey
Everything's gonna be okay
It's gonna be a good, good life

I'm not sure about anyone else, but when I hear the chorus to this song, I start singing the chorus to "B*tch" by Meredith Brooks. However, unlike that song about accepting all sides of yourself, this song is about hating the person you become in a relationship. Everyone knows that there are certain people that we just can't be with because the relationship will be unhealthy, and it looks like Bebe Rexha has found one of those people. This relationship seems to really drive her crazy, making her feel like a mess, a loser, a hater, and a user. It doesn't sound like a relationship I would want to be in either! Throughout the song, she keeps repeating that even if this relationship ends, she's going to be okay because she loves herself. A great quality to have, however, with the amount of time she repeats this line, it feels like she isn't just trying to convince us, but to also convince herself. At least she has a therapist who's telling her that life goes on and that she will be happy again. I sure hope so.
