Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So please, don't you see?
I can't be alone
No, i feel bad when you don't look at me
So please, don't you see
I don't want to be alone
I feel bad, when you just look at me
So please, don't you see?
No, i feel bad when you don't look at me
So please, don't you see?
I don't want to be alone
Be alone, be alone.
The lyrics to I Hate Myself Because's song "I Feel Bad" are poignantly expressive of the emotional turmoil experienced by the singer. The repeated expression of 'feeling bad' underscores the sense of despair and insecurity that the singer is struggling with. The opening lines, "I feel bad, when you just look at me" convey a sense of vulnerability and self-consciousness. The singer is aware that others are scrutinizing them and this awareness only heightens their discomfort. They plead with the other person to not look at them because it makes them feel so bad.
The second verse continues this theme, with the singer admitting that they can't be alone. This is a revealing admission because it suggests that the singer is deeply reliant on others for their sense of self-worth. They need the validation of others to feel okay, which is a precarious position to be in. When the other person doesn't look at them, the singer feels a sense of abandonment and sadness. This lack of attention reinforces their belief that they are not deserving of love or attention. The repeated plea of "don't you see?" emphasizes the singer's desperation for the other person to understand their pain and loneliness.
Overall, the lyrics to "I Feel Bad" are an honest and raw depiction of the pain of low self-esteem and the need for external validation. It's a poignant reminder of the importance of compassion and kindness towards ourselves and others.
