Lost Cause
Billie Eilish Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Something's in the air right now
Like I'm losin' track of time (time, time)
Like I don't really care right now
But maybe that's fine
You weren't even there that day
I was waitin' on you (you, you)
I wondered if you were aware that day
Was the last straw for me and I knew (knew)
I sent you flowers
Did you even care?
You ran the shower
And left them by the stairs
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Thought you had your shit together
But damn, I was wrong (wrong)
You ain't nothin' but a lost cause (cause)
And this ain't nothin' like it once was (was)
I know you think you're such an outlaw, yeah
But you got no job (job)
You ain't nothin' but a lost cause (cause)
And this ain't nothin' like it once was (was)
I know you think you're such an outlaw
But you got no job
I used to think you were shy (shy)
But maybe you just had nothin' on your mind
Maybe you were thinkin' 'bout yourself all the time
I used to wish you were mine (mine)
But that was way before I realized
Someone like you would always be so easy to find
(So) so easy (easy)
(So mm-mm) easy, mm-mm-mm, mm
Gave me no flowers
Wish I didn't care
You'd be gone for hours
Could be anywhere
Ooh
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Thought you would've grown eventually
But you proved me wrong (wrong)
You ain't nothin' but a lost cause (cause)
And this ain't nothin' like it once was (was)
I know you think you're such an outlaw (yeah)
But you got no job (no job)
You ain't nothin' but a lost cause (cause)
And this ain't nothin' like it once was (was)
I know you think you're such an outlaw (think you're such a lost cause)
But you got no job
What did I tell you?
Don't get complacent
It's time to face it now, now, now, now, now, now
What did I tell you?
Don't get complacent
It's time to face it now, now, now, now
In "Lost Cause," Billie Eilish sings about the end of a relationship that has run its course. The song begins with a feeling of disorientation and detachment as she describes feeling like she's "losing track of time" and "doesn't really care right now." It becomes clear that the person she's addressing was absent on a day when she needed them, which led to her ending the relationship. She sent flowers to them, but they didn't appreciate the gesture and left them by the stairs. The chorus then highlights the change in her feelings towards this person as she recognizes that they're a "lost cause" and that they don't have their life together.
The second verse sees Billie reflecting on the past, realizing that the person she once wanted to be with was just someone who was selfish and didn't care about her. She feels foolish for ever wanting to be with them and recognizes that people like them are always easy to find. The chorus repeats, emphasizing their loss of significance and the change in her perspective. Finally, Billie delivers a warning to them not to get too comfortable in life and that it's time to face the consequences of their actions.
Overall, "Lost Cause" is a breakup song that deals with the change in feelings towards someone who is no longer important to the singer. It's about moving on and recognizing that sometimes people just aren't worth the time and effort.

on lovely (with Khalid)
Thought I found a way
Thought I found a way out (found)
But you never go away (never go away)
So I guess I gotta stay now
Oh, I hope some day I'll make it out of here
Even if it takes all night or a hundred years
Need a place to hide, but I can't find one near
Wanna feel alive, outside I can't fight my fear
Isn't it lovely, all alone
Heart made of glass, my mind of stone
Tear me to pieces, skin to bone
Hello, welcome home
Walkin' out of town
Lookin' for a better place (lookin' for a better place)
Something's on my mind (mind)
Always in my head space
But I know some day I'll make it out of here
Even if it takes all night or a hundred years
Need a place to hide, but I can't find one near
Wanna feel alive, outside I can't fight my fear
Isn't it lovely, all alone
Heart made of glass, my mind of stone
Tear me to pieces, skin to bone
Hello, welcome home
Whoa, yeah
Yeah, ah
Whoa, whoa
Hello, welcome home
