Done being the sad girl
I'm done dating rock stars
From now on only actors
Tall boys in the Raptors
I'll become an asshole
Disguised as a bad girl
In my button-up shirt
A natural disaster, hey
You could be my baby, baby, baby
You could be my baby boy, they, lady
You could be my baby, baby, maybe, uh-oh
I'm sorry in advance
I'm only gonna treat you bad
I'm probably gonna let you down
I'm probably gonna sleep around
So sorry in advance
Before you take off your pants
I wouldn't let me near your friends
I wouldn't let me near your dad
But don't blame me, blame Brett
Blame my ex, blame my ex, blame my ex
Don't blame me, blame Brett
Blame my ex, blame my ex, blame my ex
That's why I won't get vulnerable
Don't you dare get comfortable
Heartbreak is impossible
Feelings doing summersaults
I'm not ready for therapy
To take accountability
Right now it's about me
Me and only 'bout me, hey
You could be my baby, baby, baby
You could be my baby boy, they, lady
You could be my baby, baby, maybe, uh-oh
I'm sorry in advance
I'm only gonna treat you bad
I'm probably gonna let you down
I'm probably gonna sleep around
So sorry in advance
Before you take off your pants
I wouldn't let me near your friends
I wouldn't let me near your dad
But don't blame me, blame Brett
Blame my ex, blame my ex, blame my ex
Don't blame me, blame Brett
Blame my ex, blame my ex, blame my ex
I'm only in it for the sex
That's why I'm never gonna love again
I'm only in it for the sex
Blame my ex, blame my ex, blame my ex
Don't blame me, blame Brett
Blame my ex, blame my ex, blame my ex
Don't blame me, blame Brett
Blame my ex, blame my ex, blame my ex
I think I'm becoming a conspiracy theorist
Everyone says that love exists
But I think that it's a myth
Closed the curtains, cried all Thursday night to your lyrics
God I don't mean to reminisce
Empty the bottle and get pissed
'Cause I know it all comes rushing back like this
What doesn't kill you makes you paranoid
What doesn't kill you makes you feel like your love ain't shit
Ran up the minutes on my inner voice
She loves to bring up all my issues, God she's a bitch
And now I'm like
Why are they staring? Am I oversharing?
I'm so embarrassing
What doesn't, what doesn't
What doesn't kill you, what doesn't kill you
What doesn't kill you makes you paranoid
I think I'm becoming some kind of validation fiend
Cut my hair cause I needed a fix
Of an acquaintance's compliments
I must have left my self-esteem at the base of your bedsheets
Where I used to leave my socks
Well, I miss that girl a lot
Well, she's just brand new and unimproved, I guess
What doesn't kill you makes you paranoid
What doesn't kill you makes you feel like your love ain't shit
Ran up the minutes on my inner voice
She loves to bring up all my issues, God she's a bitch
And now I'm like
Why are they staring? Am I oversharing?
I'm so embarrassing
What doesn't, what doesn't
What doesn't kill you, what doesn't kill you
What doesn't kill you makes you paranoid
What doesn't kill you makes you paranoid
What doesn't kill you makes you feel like your love ain't shit
Ran up my minutes on my inner voice
She loves to bring up all my issues, God she's a bitch
And now I'm like
Why are they staring? Am I oversharing?
I'm so embarrassing
What doesn't, what doesn't
What doesn't kill you, what doesn't kill you
What doesn't kill you makes you paranoid
What doesn't, what doesn't
What doesn't kill you, what doesn't kill you
What doesn't kill you makes you paranoid
What doesn't, what doesn't
What doesn't kill you, what doesn't kill you
What doesn't kill you makes you paranoid
I know a girl who spent a year and a half crying in the bottom of a bathtub It was really such a bad look Then on New Year's Eve, someone yelled 10, 9, 8 Everybody kissed then she punched them in the face, ooh
'Cause everybody's gotta find somebody, that's the point in every movie You don't wanna end up like a sad spinster Just wasting away Find yourself a mister Yeah, that's what they say That's what they say
That sounds pretty shitty And I'm pretty pretty Sexy in the city Save your pity, bitch It's kinda fun just
Me and me Table for me and me Hanging with me and me Finally free Won't waste my life Self-loathing Happy I'm going home with me and me I don't care, get out my face if you don't like it
Asking for a friend
If I go twenty-seven years with someone who treats me like shit Instead of going out with my girls f*ckin' L-I-V-I-N Is it really such a sin? Is it really not a win?
'Cause I'd rather be dead Than with 99% of all men When I'm with myself, it's honestly zen Might as well be my girlfriend
It's kinda fun just
Me and me Table for me and me Hanging with me and me Finally free Won't waste my life Self-loathing Happy I'm going home with me and me
Me and me Table for me and me Hanging with me and me Finally free Won't waste my life Self-loathing Happy I'm going home with me and me
I don't care, get out my face if you don't like it I don't care, get out my face if you don't like it
I just zoned You were telling me about your dreams No one cares about your dreams It's one of those days I can't even watch TV Trying to fill a void in me This silence kills me It's like nothing thrills me Doctor, please, just pill me So I can feel something
Everything is boring Wake up and I'm snoring I think I could die right here, right now Everything is boring That or just annoying I swear I'm just watching life go down
It's raining, it's pouring Everything is boring It's raining, it's pouring Everything is boring
I just zoned out I was thinking about girls supporting other girls Then I woke up in a meeting with a bunch of random dudes Telling me what I should do The notion kills me It's like nothing thrills me Doctor, please, just pill me So I can feel something
Everything is boring Wake up and I'm snoring I think I could die right here, right now Everything is boring That or just annoying I swear I'm watching life go down
Sinking deeper and deeper and deeper into the couch I found some coins down here I'm rich, maybe I should go out Sinking deeper and deeper and deeper into the ground I think I just found my heart down here From when you stomped it out
Everything is boring Wake up and I'm snoring I think I could die right here, right now Everything is boring That or just annoying I swear I'm just watching life go down Everything is boring Wake up and I'm snoring I think I could die right here, right now Everything is boring That or just annoying I swear I'm just watching life go down
It's raining, it's pouring Everything is boring It's raining, it's pouring Everything is boring It's raining, it's pouring Everything is boring It's raining, it's pouring Everything is boring
I'm so tired of falling in love Pull my hair and rip my clothes off Rub my lipstick in on my cheek and call me Mandy I'll bring home the money and you bring the drugs Know you like to party like it's 2001 Light me up a fashion girl cigarette I'll pour a brandy
Ooh, I wanna be your bitch I wanna taste your spit I wanna be your bitch Leave a mark on my innocence
My body featuring your lips, your lips My body featuring your lips, your lips
Tell me what you're thinking when I'm feeling myself I'll watch you in the shower playing show and tell See you in a fantasy with somebody else It's so sleazy, please, don't delete me

Two, three We were written in the stars, pulled a lover's tarot card Was decided by the gods, throwing out their lightning rods Wow, we're in the same city We're both relatively pretty We're both single, under fifty, must be kismet So kiss me, woo, mwah
Two, three Let's unravel all the thread, let's see how it's gonna end All the pieces seem to fit, it's beautiful, it's bliss We like music, we like movies, we like dancing, we like whiskey We're so similar, it's freaky, must be kismet So kiss me, woo, mwah
Two, three Ooh, I keep on running into you I live on your street but What are the chances, the chances I keep running into you? Ooh, it's like I'm meant to be with you It's kismet baby, yeah Something so drastic, it's magic Like I'm supposed to be with you
It's all in the cosmic plan Holding hands, it's out of our hands Throw the dice, see where it lands Let's just roll with it, roll with it Oh my god, it's meant to be And you just ran right into me? No Bumble, just organically What is this, 1993? Must be kismet So kiss me, woo, mwah
Ooh, I keep on running into you I live on your street but What are the chances, the chances I keep running into you? Ooh, it's like I'm meant to be with you It's kismet baby, yeah Something so drastic, it's magic Like I'm supposed to be with you
Ooh, I keep on running into you I live on your street but What are the chances, the chances I keep running into you? Ooh, it's like I'm meant to be with you It's kismet baby, yeah Something so drastic, it's magic Like I'm supposed to be with you
She's a fire sign And I don't really know what that means I'm a cold night And I wanna be close to the heat I don't want to get burned I don't want love like that But I can't go any further 'til I start coming back
I'm a rock star And I'm never around when you need Like a race-car driving away from the scene Does she want me to stay? Does she want me to pack? You can't push me any further 'til I start coming back
Turn me around, right upside down Spin me like a globe and drop your finger on me I feel so far, you're all I want Spin me like a globe and drop your finger on me
You push me in circles To the edge of the Earth Where I can't go any further 'Til I start coming back to you
I'm an addict I'm addicted to her into me She's a magnet Pulling me under the sheets If I hold you too close Will the good things still grow? Don't matter what happens, wherever we end up We'll come right back
Turn me around, right upside down Spin me like a globe and drop your finger on me I feel so far, you're all I want Spin me like a globe and drop your finger on me
You push me in circles To the edge of the Earth Where I can't go any further 'Til I start coming back to you
Turn me around, right upside down Spin me like a globe and drop your finger on me I feel so far, you're all I want Spin me like a globe and drop your finger on me
You push me in circles To the edge of the Earth Where I can't go any further 'Til I start coming back to you
Hiding in your hoodie, pulling on its strings
Haven't took it off since you told me everything
God, I wish that you didn't
Had to take a knife and open up the cut
Silver in the light, watch it tear me up
I'll bleed out any minute
I could look the other way again
'Cause I learned from the best how to play pretend
If a tree falls
I don't wanna hear it
'Cause if I don't know
I don't have to feel it
If I don't see it going down
Then why can't I just block it out?
Watching you fall
And I was nowhere near it
But I heard it and I hate it
Back at the beginning, older than before
Wish I could remember the girl who I adored
I don't know where she's hidden
Running by the water, sun burning my skin
Gotta keep on moving before it all sinks in
How is he getting through it?
I could look the other way again
'Cause I learned from the best how to play pretend
So if a tree falls
I don't wanna hear it
I don't want wanna hear it, I don't
'Cause if I don't know
I don't like to feel it
I don't have to feel it, I don't
If I don't see it going down
Then why can't I just block it out?
Watching you fall
And I was nowhere near it
But I heard it and I hate it
If I don't see it going down
Does it make a sound? Does it make a sound?
Then I won't have to be let down
Oh, I hate the sound, oh, I hate the sound
If I don't see it going down
Does it make a sound? Does it make a sound?
Then why can't I just block it out?
Oh, I hate the sound, oh, I hate
Yeah, I heard it and I hate that I did, now I'm hurting
And I heard it and I hate that I did, was it worth it?
If I don't see it going down
Does it make a sound? Does it make a sound?
Then why can't I just block it out?
Does it make a sound? Does it make a
She's been infiltrating all my dreams She said I'm femme, please Come back and tell me what that means, please
I wanna kiss your lips for the hell of it Running up your back with my fingertips And let me hold you and get to know you
Honey, I don't care what your parents said You like the bad girls, baby And that's what you'll get I want to show you and get to know you

Touch me there and I'll touch you there Run your fingers up through my tangled hair Honey, it's not fair, it's not fair You look so hot, it's not fair
In your low rise jeans like my fantasy F*ck, I feel so cool when you talk to me I'm so lucky, do you like me?

Blame My Ex is the second full-length studio album by Canadian rock band the Beaches, released in 2023.
The album was led by the hit single "Blame Brett", which reached number 1 on the Billboard Canada rock charts, and broke through as the band's first charting single in the United States. The song refers to Jordan Miller's prior relationship with Brett Emmons of The Glorious Sons, although Miller clarified that the song was not meant to be perceived as attacking him, but as an apology to future boyfriends for her own struggles to commit to a new relationship. She has stressed that she is the "bad guy" in the song, not Emmons, and has spoken out against fans who tried to vilify Emmons based on the song.
The album peaked at number 76 on the Canadian Albums Chart.
The album won the Juno Award for Rock Album of the Year at the Juno Awards of 2024, and was a longlisted nominee for the 2024 Polaris Music Prize.
