There's nobody better than you
It took me a while till I knew
But you knew from the start it was us, didn't you?
It just took me a while till I knew
Now I lay as I study a blank wall
Would you spare me your voice if I call?
'Cause you waited and watered my heart till it grew
You just grew a little smarter too
So I
don't blame you if you want to
Bury me in your memory, I'm not the girl I ought to be, but
Maybe when you tell your friends, you
Can tell them what you saw in me, and not how I turned out to be
There's some kind of burning inside me
It's kept me from falling apart
And I'm sure that you've seen what it's done to my heart
But it's kept me from falling apart
Now here I lay, as I wonder about you
Would you just tell me what I'm meant to do?
'Cause I've
waited and watered my heart till it grew
You can see how it's blossomed for you
And I don't blame you if you want to
Bury me in your memory, I'm not the girl I ought to be, but
Maybe when you tell your friends, you
Can tell them what you saw in me, and not the way I am
And I don't mean to make your heart blue
But could we be what we're meant to be?
I'm just about to beg you please, and
Then when you tell your friends, you can
Tell them what you saw in me, and
Not the way I used to be
'Cause there's nobody better than you.
Lyrics taken from /lyrics/m/mitski/goodbye_my_danish_sweetheart.html
it's one of my favourite songs by her (as you can see haha) & i totally agree, it's quite a panicky kind of sound, especially with the strange notes at the beginning - it actually makes me feel quite anxious sometimes when i listen to it, my chest literally hurts, but that might also just be me
the ending always catches me off guard, the way she says "but there's nobody better than you", it's such a soft ending to such a tense song.

There's nobody better than you
It took me a while till I knew
But you knew from the start it was us, didn't you?
It just took me a while till I knew
Now I lay as I study a blank wall
Would you spare me your voice if I call?
'Cause you waited and watered my heart till it grew
You just grew a little smarter too
So I don't blame you if you want to
Bury me in your memory, I'm not the girl I ought to be
But maybe when you tell your friends, you
Can tell
them what you saw in me, and not how I turned out to be
There's some kind of burning inside me
It's kept me from falling apart
And I'm sure that you've seen what it's done to my heart
But it's kept me from falling apart
Now here I lay, as I wonder about you
Would you just tell me what I'm meant to do?
'Cause I've waited and watered my heart till it grew
You can see how it's blossomed for you
And I don't blame you if you want to
Bury me in your memory, I'm
not the girl I ought to be
But maybe when you tell your friends, you
Can tell them what you saw in me, and not the way I am
And I don't mean to make your heart blue
But could we be what we're meant to be?
I'm just about to beg you please, and
Then when you tell your friends, you can
Tell them what you saw in me, and
Not the way I used to be
'Cause there's nobody better than you
