Special Girl Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's not my fault
I was raised by open mouths and teary eyes
Passive wistful lullabies
I found my worth in this world
By proving I’m a special girl
Time and time again

[Chorus]
Sweet, sweet irony
Could not care less if you love me
But hate me first, yeah make me work, that's perfect
Baby I'm a funny thing
I’m walking if it doesn't sting
Heartbreak only means that it was worth it
Oh, I think I was doomed before I began
Mmm sorry, I just know the way that I am
Oh well

[Verse 2]
So this is it now
Twenty four, I still count everyone I kiss;
The bitter ones still taste the best
Talk and tap to find a crack
Prise open till my nails turn black
Time and time again

What did dodie say about "Special Girl"?

I didn’t realize I’d written two songs called ‘Cool Girl’ and ‘Special Girl’ until I was listening to them together. This leads into the more abstract, less poppy side of the album. You can think, ‘I’m broken. I’m unlovable.’ But ‘Special Girl’ is about saying, ‘This is who I am.’ The ending of it sounds like a hot mess—and that’s exactly what I am in the song.
