Etta Marcus - Confessional (Official Audio)

my new ep 'heart shaped bruise' is out now: etta.lnk.to/he...
At the time of writing this I was reflecting on a specific point in time, and finally coming to terms with my feelings. To me, it’s an empowering song. To be able to shout «I can’t get up in the morning»/«don’t ask me how I’m doing», felt good. The voice at the end is my mum giving me a much-needed pep talk and imparting her wonderful words of wisdom. It felt like the perfect way to depart from the EP. A soft reminder that a little self-doubt is okay, just don’t let it paralyse you.

Etta Marcus - Confessional (Lyrics)
I’ve got a pain in my brain and it’s crushing me
When I feel okay it changes so easily
And I’m scared that my problems
Will eat me for breakfast
Cuz I’ve got a pain in my brain and it’s crushing me
And I’m not kidding
I can’t get up in the morning
I’m being so dramatic
Don’t ask me how I’m doing
You know how I’m doing
Kicked out of school
I don’t work, I don’t brush my teeth
Laughing along to the laughing tracks on TV
And I’m scared that my problems
Will eat me for breakfast
Cuz I’ve got a pain in my brain and it’s crushing me
And I’m not kidding
I can’t get up in the morning
I’m being so dramatic
Don’t ask me how I’m doing
You know how I’m doing
(If you know me, you’ll never ask
Don’t look at me, don’t ever ask
If you know me, you’ll never ask
Don’t look at me, don’t ever ask)
