Life Support was released on February 26, 2021, which Beer co-wrote entirely and co-produced most of the record as well. The album received generally favorable critic reviews with Dani Blum of Pitchfork calling it "ambitious yet shallow, seemingly intent on proving its own seriousness". NME's Hannah Mylrea was more favorable and gave it 4/5 stars. Riff Magazine's Mike DeWald gave the album an 8/10, saying "It may have been years in the making, but Madison Beer's first album is worth the wait for pop fans." The album debuted at number sixty-five on the US Billboard 200, and also peaked in the top thirty on both the Canadian Albums and OCC UK Albums charts. That same month, Beer confirmed in a podcast interview with The Zach Sang Show that she had already started working on the follow-up to Life Support, saying "We have seven songs on the second album already, and we had four days of a writing camp."

She released the song "Reckless" on June 3, 2021, intended as the lead single of her upcoming sophomore studio album. The song was met with critical acclaim for its lyrical content and vulnerability and peaked in the top forty on the Billboard US Mainstream Top 40.

In August, she launched the 90s–inspired clothing collection in collaboration with British e-commerce fashion retailer Boohoo.

Beer released "Dangerous" as the lead single to her second studio album on August 26, 2022. It was followed by "Showed Me (How I Fell in Love with You)" on October 14, 2022.
Beer has stated that her inspirations in her music and songwriting are Lana Del Rey, Daft Punk, Melanie Martinez, and Ariana Grande. When questioned if she was inspired by Grande, Beer responded "I mean, you know Ariana's been one of my favorite people ever for like, so much of my career and like, even just prior to my career, so I'm sure she's definitely influenced me, a lot. ... But, I hate this narrative that's being pushed about me and her, you know, that it's kinda like this competition thing, like this is someone I idolize and someone I look up to."

Was about to write you this letter but it was just curses in cursive
You probably deserve it
But that's so impersonal
Should tell you in person
I hope it don't hurt you but then I've been hurt too
By you
The truth is
You're calling me up to link up and
Figure shit out
Know doubt, time's out
We never figure shit out
I can't do this no more
You call me on life support
'Cause this is the fifth time I've taken you back
It's the fourth time that we've relapsed
It's the third second chance that I've given you
For the first time
Let this be the last
Fifth time I've taken you back
It's the fourth time that I've collapsed
Into your arms
It's so hard but for the best
For the first time
Let this be the last
This vicious cycle
Is driving me psycho
I'm anxious
Need someone to come check my vitals
One minute I'm leaving, the next I forgive you
You're calling me up to link up and
Figure shit out
Know doubt, time's out
We never figure shit out
I can't do this no more
Cutting off the life support
'Cause this is the fifth time I've taken you back
It's the fourth time that we've relapsed
It's the third second chance that I've given you
For the first time
Let this be the last
Fifth time I've taken you back
It's the fourth time that I've collapsed
Into your arms
It's so hard but for the best
For the first time
Let this be the last
Please, please
Let this be the last
No, it's gotta be the
Oh, it's truly
The last
The lyrics to Madison Beer's song "Emotional Bruises" depict a cycle of a toxic, dysfunctional relationship where the singer is being hurt, manipulated and emotionally drained by their partner. In the first verse, the singer expresses the desire to write a letter with all the curses and insults, but then ultimately decides to confront their partner in person. The singer acknowledges that they have also been hurt by their partner and that all they do is leave them with emotional bruises. The second verse reveals that the couple has been through this cycle multiple times, with the singer taking their partner back and forgiving them, only to be hurt again. The chorus repeats the plea for this to be the last time, indicating that the singer is willing to cut ties and leave their partner for good. The line "Cutting off the life support" signifies the singer's decision to end a toxic relationship and move on.

Line by Line Meaning
Was about to write you this letter but it was just curses in cursive
I wanted to express my feelings to you in writing, but all I can think of are hurtful words
You probably deserve it
You have done something to cause me pain or distress
But that's so impersonal
Expressing myself in writing feels less authentic and meaningful than doing it in person
Should tell you in person
I need to talk to you face to face about how I feel
I hope it don't hurt you but then I've been hurt too
I don't want to cause you pain, but I have also suffered because of you
By you
I have been hurt by your actions or behavior
The truth is
I need to be honest with you
All you do is leave me emotional bruises
Your behavior and actions cause me emotional pain and distress
You're calling me up to link up and
You want to talk or meet up with me
Figure shit out
Resolve our issues or problems
Know doubt, time's out
There's no time to waste, we need to act quickly
We never figure shit out
We can never seem to resolve our problems or reach a solution
I can't do this no more
I can't continue with this cycle of pain and hurt
You call me on life support
You rely on me to help you, even though it hurts me
This vicious cycle
Our relationship is caught in a pattern of hurt and pain
Is driving me psycho
It's causing me to feel anxious and overwhelmed
I'm anxious
I feel worried and uneasy
Need someone to come check my vitals
I need someone to help me feel secure and stable
One minute I'm leaving, the next I forgive you
I keep going back and forth about whether to stay or leave
Cutting off the life support
Ending the cycle of pain and hurt by distancing myself from you
Please, please
I am begging you
Let this be the last
Let this be the end of our cycle of pain and hurt
No, it's gotta be the
It absolutely has to be the end
Oh, it's truly
This is really the last time
The last
This is truly the final end to our relationship

EMOTIONAL BRUISES lyrics...
Verse 1
How do I word this?
Was about to write you this letter
But it was just curses in cursive
You probably deserve it
But that's so impersonal, should tell you in person
I hope it don't hurt you, but then, I've been hurt too by you
The truth is, all you do is
Leave me emotional bruises
Pre-Chorus
You're callin' me up to link up and figure shit out
No doubt, time's out, we never figure shit out
I can't do this no more, you call me your life support
Chorus
'Cause this is the fifth time I've taken you back
It's the fourth time, that we've relapsed
It's the third-second chance that I've given you
For the first time, let this be the last time
Fifth time I've taken you back
It's the fourth time, that I've collapsed into your arms
It's so hard, but for the best
For the first time, let this be the last
Verse 2
This vicious cycle, it's driving me psycho
I'm anxious need someone to come check my vitals (Come check my vitals)
One minute I'm leaving, the next I forgive you
Pre-Chorus
You're callin' me up to link up and figure shit out
No doubt, time's out, we never figure shit out
I can't do this no more, cutting off the life support
Chorus
'Cause this is the fifth time I've taken you back
It's the fourth time, that we've relapsed
It's the third-second chance that I've given you
For the first time, let this be the last time
Fifth time I've taken you back
It's the fourth time, that I've collapsed into your arms
It's so hard, but for the best
For the first time, let this be the last
Outro
Please, please
Let this be last
No, it's gotta be
It's truly the last

Madison, my daughter told me about your music and I figured I should take a listen since I'm a protective mama bear and want to make sure my kids breathe in positivity and get rid of any negativity that will be toxic for their health & lives. She played this song for me and you now have a new fan.. I think you're very underrated. You're beautiful, intelligent, and blessed with a voice that can melt ice caps. Keep singing, hon.
