​don’t quite belong (demo) Lyrics by ​dodie

Build A Problem

2021

[Verse 1]
I'm taking my time in the back of a room
Don't assume I'm as cold as I seem
Widen the eyes, show the teeth, holding hands like it's planned
How do they know what they mean?
I go up to a friend, grab his arm
"What's the code I should know? Do you struggle like me?"
He says, "Finish your drink, then we'll bounce, get it down, hit the town"
I still don't know what he means
[Pre-Chorus]
Am I
Missing something vital here?
'Cause I
Woke up feeling kind of weird
[Chorus]
Guess I'll just pretend
Play along till they figure it out
I don't quite belong, oh, oh
Fake it 'til you make it, but I'm getting it wrong
Think I've figured it out
I don't quite belong, oh, mmm
[Verse 2]
Suddenly face to a face, man to man, understand?
I say yes, but I don't
It's working a charm, here take this, you'll be wired, but I'm tired
I'd rather smoke it alone
In goes the drink and the fire and out comes the doubt and the stutter and shame
I chew over a word, but it's wrong, no I'm fine, what's the time?
I think I'm done with this game
[Pre-Chorus]
Am I
Missing something vital here?
'Cause I
Woke up feeling kind of weird
[Chorus]
Guess I'll just pretend (Mmm)
Play along till they figure it out
I don't quite belong, oh, oh
Fake it 'til you make it, but I'm getting it wrong (Mmm)
Think I've figured it out
I don't quite belong, oh
Oh-oh-oh
[Bridge]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, mmm
[Pre-Chorus]
Am I
Missing something vital here?
'Cause I
Woke up feeling kind of weird
[Chorus]
Guess I'll just pretend (Mmm)
Play along till they figure it out
I don't quite belong, oh, oh
Oh, fake it 'til you make it, but I'm getting it wrong
Think I've figured it out
I don't quite belong, mmm
Mmm-mmm
Ooh-ooh
Mmm
[Outro]
Meh, neh, meh, neh, meh, neh, meh, meh
