Mis Lyrics
My baby's alright
She just doesn't wanna see me tonight
Not for a minute
Not for a second
She says, "Nothin' here for you to make right"
I said, "I miss you so bad"
She says
I guess I don't need her around
I just do what I do best when I'm down
Paint the problem
Into a picture
Twist my arm 'til I make a sound
I said, "I miss you so bad"
She says
She just doesn't wanna see me tonight
Not for a minute
Not for a second
She says, "Nothin' here for you to make right"
I said, "I miss you so bad"
She says
I guess I don't need her around
I just do what I do best when I'm down
Paint the problem
Into a picture
Twist my arm 'til I make a sound
I said, "I miss you so bad"
She says

A breakup, maybe, or a fight. A break. She wants it to be over. He doesn't. She needs space. There's nothing he can fix right now, nothing he can "make right," yet he can't seem to leave her alone. She can't handle looking after him anymore. She stays silent when he pleads. The painting could be a metaphor for him nitpicking until he finds what he thinks is the root of the problem and trying to fix it, or it could be literal—a coping method. No matter what it is, it fails. He doesn't feel better or win her back. He tells her he misses her again—it's a last-ditch effort. She stays silent.
Easily one of my favorite Alex G songs. I love the part where he sings "I said 'I miss you so bad' / She says…" Did she say nothing at all, or was what she said too heartbreaking to even repeat?
i love this song so much and it feels like the feeling of betraying someone to which you lvoe. or doing something wrong
