  • All the pretty girls
    In the foreground of my mind
    I thought I'd done enough
    But they keep moving the line
    I thought I found the antidote this time
    I thought I found the antidote this time

    And all the nights I spent
    Fighting bad thoughts in my room
    Feeling so alone, might as well be on the moon
    I thought I found the antidote with you
    I thought I found the antidote with you

    But my head is full of poison
    And my heart is full of doubt
    I got toxins in my bloodstream
    You tried hard to suck 'em out
    And it feels like medication
    And it's good for me, I'm sure
    But it don't matter how your love feels anymore
    It'll never be the cure
    It'll never be the cure

    Used to play a game in my head
    When I'd date a guy
    Tally up the girls 'til it hurts
    And I start to cry
    I thought I found the antidote this time
    I thought I found the antidote this time

    But I'm unraveled (I'm unraveled)
    I'm unraveled (I'm unraveled)
    I'm unraveled (I'm unraveled)
    I'm unraveled (I'm unraveled)

    And my head is full of poison
    And my heart is full of doubt
    I got toxins in my bloodstream
    You tried hard to suck 'em out
    And it feels like medication
    And it's good for me, I'm sure
    But it don't matter how your love feels anymore
    It will never be the cure
    It'll never be the cure, oh

    'Cause, baby, I'm unraveled (I'm unraveled)
    I'm unraveled (I'm unraveled)
    I'm unraveled (I'm unraveled)
    I'm unraveled (I'm unraveled, I'm unraveled)

    Why can't you come stitch me up? (I'm unraveled)
    Why can't it ever be enough? (I'm unraveled)
    Why can't you come stitch me up? (I'm unraveled)
    Why can't it ever be enough? (I'm unraveled)
    It's not enough

    All because my head is full of poison
    And my heart is full of doubt (I'm unraveled)
    I got toxins in my bloodstream
    You tried so hard to suck out (I'm unraveled)
    And it feels like medication
    And it's good for me, I'm sure (I'm unraveled)
    But it don't matter how your love feels anymore (I'm unraveled)
    It'll never be the cure
    It will never be the cure
    It'll never be Writer/s: Daniel Nigro, Olivia Rodrigo
