Wish I Was Better
Kina Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I calling you up 'cause I'm missing you
I don't even know what I'm gonna do
I say I don't care, that's not the truth
Yeah, I'm still in love with you

And I know all your friends, they hate me too
I wish that I was better at the things I do
I say I don't care, that's not the truth
Yeah, I'm still not over you

I been calling you up 'cause I'm missing you
I don't even know what I'm gonna do
I say I don't care, that's not the truth
Yeah, I'm still in love with you

And I know all your friends, they hate me too
I wish that I was better at the things I do
I say I don't care, that's not the truth
Yeah, I'm still not over you

It's been two years since I last saw you
Still wish that I run into you
'Cause I know that you're still in our hometown
And maybe you never wanna see me
And I understand if you don't want to
But I will never forget you (I will never forget you)

I been calling you up 'cause I'm missing you
I don't even know what I'm gonna do
I say I don't care, that's not the truth
Yeah, I'm still in love with you

And I know all your friends, they hate me too
I wish that I was better at the things I do
I say I don't care, that's not the truth
Yeah, I'm still not over you

I been calling you up 'cause I'm missing you
I don't even know what I'm gonna do




I say I don't care, that's not the truth
Yeah, I'm still in love with you (in love with you)

Overall Meaning

Kina's song Wish I Was Better is a sincere expression of heartbreak and longing for someone who may no longer reciprocate the singer's feelings. The chorus of the song repeats the same three lines, emphasizing the singer's yearning for the person they miss: "I been calling you up 'cause I'm missing you / I don't even know what I'm gonna do / I say I don't care, that's not the truth." The last line is an admission that the singer is still in love with this person, despite trying to convince themselves they've moved on.


The second verse reveals that the singer's ex's friends dislike them, adding to the isolation and heartbreak. The line "I wish that I was better at the things I do" could refer to any number of things the singer feels they could have done differently in the relationship or in life in general to avoid this pain. But the song never goes into specifics - it's more concerned with the sense of loss and yearning that comes after a relationship ends.


The final verse seems to hint that the singer has moved away from their hometown, but they still hold onto memories of this person they miss. The line "Maybe you never wanna see me / And I understand if you don't want to" shows some acceptance of this reality, but the singer still "will never forget you." The repetition of the chorus reinforces the intensity of the singer's emotions, which remain unresolved.


Overall, Wish I Was Better is a poignant and relatable portrait of heartbreak and regret. Its simple, repetitive structure mirrors the cyclical pattern of longing that can follow a lost love.

U ever felt so insecure that u think:
I dont deserve him. Im am too ugly for him. He can find better. Someone that isnt boring or awkward. Someone that knows how to get a convo going. Someone that he cares about.

I do
Everyday
Everytime i like someone
Everytime someone shows a little interest in me

I was too scared to get attached so i pushed him away. But the second he talked someone else i blamed myself for letting him go.

All i wanted For me
Getting over from past
The past where i only see I'm neglected
The past where i only feel I'm abandoned
I was neglected
I was abandoned
I saw my younger smiling on the lap of my mom
When i wanted too,
she got busy, i felt lonely.
I wanted To acknowledged by my dad
But he only sees my fault here and there
I felt broken.
I wanted to be a good sister of my brother,
But i often got insulted by him
I felt tired.
I Wanna fly, over the sky
Over you, Over them
Over myself, Over everyone.
I only feel I'm useless, kinda shameless
I'm a burden, what makes them ashamed.
All over af my life
I only wanted to be a good girl
Wanted them to smile while looking at me
But i only get pair of eyes what are threatening.
I know they love me,
I know they care
I know they want me
I'm just a little bit tired.
Now im untamed, I'm ill
I'm reckless because of pain
I can't hide, i can't escape
I only act that I'm fine.
Wish i could be a good child of my mom, i could be a perfect daughter of my dad!
But I'm only a person full of bad.

Hi!!!!! I just wanted to thank you for your music, It's gotten me through really rough times, and it helps ease things when I know I'm not the only one going through things, and we all have problems. I know we all do, but it makes me feel less alone, even when I'm always surrounded by people. Thank you again, xoxo!

It’s sad how the person who gave the best memories, becomes a memory.
