Mabel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

He's calling me "baby"
And all his friends say he should date me
Why have you stopped calling me lately?
Feels like these days, I'm only waiting
This is crazy, ah

Got me wishin' I was takin' off clothes with you
Two weeks and I felt so close to you
What is it? What is it? Oh
Now you're so cold, tell me what I'm s'posed to do
Door closed and I'm wishin' I could go with you
What is it? What is it?

Fuck my life
I thought we was something good
Fuck my life
Never thought that one thing could
Fuck my life like this
I'm tellin' everyone about it
And you don't even care about it
I, I

I swim in the moments
And they come in waves
I'm caught in emotions, ah
And I wanna know where you going
I wanna know where you're at
Is this the way you go through the motions?
The motions, ah

Got me wishin' I was takin' off clothes with you
Two weeks and I felt so close to you
What is it? What is it? Oh
Now you're so cold, tell me what I'm s'posed to do
Door closed and I'm wishin' I could go with you
What is it? What is it?

Fuck my life
I thought we was something good
Fuck my life
Never thought that one thing could
Fuck my life like this
I'm tellin' everyone about it
And you don't even care about it
I, I
Fuck my life
I thought we was something good
Fuck my life
Never thought that one thing could
Fuck my life like this
I'm tellin' everyone about it
And you don't even care about it
I, I

Tell me a way just to say that you could
Puttin' me down to make yourself look good
Keepin' me close 'cause you know that you should
I know that soon, you'll be coming right back around
Fake, uh
I wanna delete your face, uh
You were just one big mistake, uh
I can't believe I let you

Fuck my life
I thought we were something good
Fuck my life (yeah)
Never thought that one thing could
Fuck my life like this
I'm tellin' everyone about it
And you don't even care about it (no, no, no)
I, I
Fuck my life (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I thought we was something good
Fuck my life
Never thought that one thing could
Fuck my life like this
I'm tellin' everyone about it (oh, oh, oh)
And you don't even care about it
I, I

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Mabel’s song “FML” is a cry of mixed emotions from a woman who got her heart broken by a man whom she thought was good for her. At the beginning of the song, Mabel talks about how the guy she's with used to call her "baby," and how he and his friends thought they should date. The chorus of the song reveals her utter disappointment with the whole situation. She feels like she had something good with this person before, but now she's left wondering what went wrong. She wants to know where he is and is perplexed by his sudden coldness towards her.


Despite everything that has happened, Mabel still holds on to that hope that they have something good between them. She talks about the happy moments that they shared and how she felt so close to him after two weeks of dating. She wishes she could go back to those moments and redo everything with him. However, she acknowledges the reality of the situation and how he is not treating her the way she deserves to be treated. The verse "Tell me a way just to say that you could, Puttin' me down to make yourself look good," addresses her realization that he is only keeping her close because he knows he should, not because he genuinely cares about her.


Overall, the song expresses the complexity of relationships and how they can affect people in different ways. Mabel portrays the emotions of love, affection, disappointment, and hurt, all into one song, making it relatable to those who have been in similar situations.
