Always say you love me, but you
Always make it all about you
Especially when you've had a few, oh, oh yeah
All the things I heard from your ex
Now they make a whole lot of sense
Already feel bad for your next
That have to put up with you, oh yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
Worked on myself, open my eyes
You hate my friends, turns out they were right
It takes two to make it all go right
[Chorus]
But with you, it's always my fault
And you're short fused just like a time bomb
And I think you should take a second just to look at your reflection
Baby, maybe you're thе problem
Oh, can you, you see a pattern?
Your point of view, got it all backwards
You should takе your little finger and just point it in the mirror
Baby, maybe you're the problem
[Post-Chorus]
You should take your little finger and just point it in the mirror
Baby, maybe you're the problem
Ego always doin' the most
Out of touch, you're not even close
Drama always follows you home
But I won't be waitin' no more
[Pre-Chorus]
Worked on myself, open my eyes
You hate my friends, turns out they were right
It takes two to make it all go right
[Chorus]
But with you, it's always my fault
And you're short fused just like a time bomb
And I think you should take a second just to look at your reflection
Baby, maybe you're the problem
Oh, can you, you see a pattern?
Your point of view, got it all backwards
You should take your little finger and just point it in the mirror
Baby, maybe you're the problem
[Post-Chorus]
You should take your little finger and just point it in the mirror
Baby, maybe you're the problem
[Bridge]
It's not me, it's you
It's not me, it's you
It's not me, it's you (Ooh)
But with you, it's always my fault
And you're short fused just like a time bomb
And I think you should take a second just to look at your reflection
Baby, maybe you're the problem
Oh, can you, you see a pattern?
Your point of view, got it all backwards
You should take your little finger and just point it in the mirror
Baby, maybe you're the problem (Oh)
[Post-Chorus]
You should take your little finger and just point it in the mirror
Baby, maybe you're the problem (Hey, hey, hey, hey)

‘Maybe You’re the Problem’ was written on a day that I got in a really bad argument with my ex-boyfriend. I went into the studio and started yelling, ‘Maybe you’re the problem,’ and that’s how the song was born. I couldn’t cancel the session. I was so upset that I had to go in. The lyrics and melodies came out of my mouth at the same time. It was written so quickly, within an hour.
