Didn't Fix Me

Album: Good Luck With Whatever (2020)

  • I went to see a healer
    With that mic strapped to his face
    Talked about which habits to surrender
    And which habits to embrace
    And for the next few days or so I was
    Feeling pretty good
    But it didn't fix me

    I even started volunteering
    With the local Sacred Heart
    We feed the homeless on some weekends
    We pick up trash in all the parks
    And even though we're cleaning up
    The whole damn neighborhood
    It didn't fix me
    It didn't fix me like I thought it would

    I got that book you recommended
    About the spy in East Berlin
    I really like the way it ended
    How he forgave his friend and turns him in
    I think I see what you were saying 'bout how
    Technically it should, but
    It didn't fix me
    It didn't fix me like I thought it would

    It didn't fix me
    It didn't fix me

    I finally got a nomination
    For an award that I don't need
    But I say that out of obligation
    I really spent hours on my speech
    I thanked my biggest inspirations
    And the good folks back in Hollywood
    But it didn't fix me
    It didn't fix me like I thought it would

    It didn't fix me
    It didn't fix me

    I finally found someone that loves me
    And to her I will be true
    She sees the ways in which I'm ugly
    And loves me for those reasons too
    And even though I'm feeling stronger than I
    Ever thought I could
    It still didn't fix me
    It didn't fix me
    It didn't fix me like I thought it would

    It didn't fix me
    It didn't fix me
    It didn't fix me
    Oh, oh
    Oh, oh
    Oh, oh Writer/s: Taylor Goldsmith
