Billie Eilish – wish you were gay lyrics

Billie Eilish – wish you were gay lyrics

[Verse 1]
"Baby, I don't feel so good," six words you never understood
"I'll never let you go," five words you'll never say (Aww)
I laugh alone like nothing's wrong, four days has never felt so long
If three's a crowd and two was us, one slipped away (Hahahahahahahaha)

[Chorus]
I just wanna make you feel okay
But all you do is look the other way
I can't tell you how much I wish I didn't wanna stay
I just kinda wish you were gay

[Verse 2]
Is there a reason we're not through?
Is there a 12 step just for you?
Our conversation's all in blue
11 "heys" (Hey, hey, hey, hey)
Ten fingers tearing out my hair
Nine times you never made it there
I ate alone at 7, you were six minutes away
(Yay)

[Chorus]
How am I supposed to make you feel okay
When all you do is walk the other way?
I can't tell you how much I wish I didn't wanna stay
I just kinda wish you were gay

[Bridge]
To spare my pride
To give your lack of interest an explanation
Don't say I'm not your type
Just say that I'm not your preferred sexual orientation
I'm so selfish
But you make me feel helpless, yeah
And I can't stand another day
Stand another day

[Chorus]
I just wanna make you feel okay
But all you do is look the other way
I can't tell you how much I wish I didn't wanna stay
I just kinda wish you were gay
I just kinda wish you were gay
I just kinda wish you were gay

She said that "wish you were gay" is a song about unreciprocated love and not understanding why the one you want doesn't want you back. I think it's told from the perspective of a straight girl who likes a straight guy. However, the guy doesn't like her back, and she's looking for something, any possible explanation as to why he doesn't feel the same way, even if wanting him to have been gay to be said explanation.

I think that Billie wrote this song about someone being part of the LGBTQ+ and them finding it hard to come out and she's trying to make them feel/ know it's ok to be gay ‘ baby I don't feel so good ‘ there realising that there gay I laugh alone like nothings wrong shows that they don't want to express that there depressed heys" (Hey, hey, hey, hey)
Ten fingers tearing out my hair
Nine times you never made it there
I ate alone at 7, you were six minutes ses lyrics suggest to me that something's happened/fell in love with someone who's straight and all they could say was hey and they pull out there hair because there anxious and 9 times u never made it there they let them down In some way they are alone because they were there ( maybe late on a date ).

I does not mean that she likes a girl. It means she likes this guy ad he does not like her back because she would rather have him be g** than not like her:(Its sad but its true. The thing was that the boy she liked actually was g** and came out to her before she had posted this song. You guys she really puts hard work into these songs and she deserves so much more love than she gets A. I love Billie Eilish.
