"Unlearn" lyrics

benny blanco & Gracie Abrams Lyrics

"Unlearn"

Excuse my French
But every time you turn your phone around
I just kind of lose my
Lose my shit
Thinking it's another me
Hanging on the other line
I'm fine
I keep bringing all my problems to a pillow fight
And I'm
Just trying to get to you

But it's not your fault
No it's not your fault
No it's not your fault, no no

'Cause if I'm gonna learn how to love you
I need to unlearn how to love too
Need to unlearn how to run when it feels right
Oh my God I'm trying

If I'm gonna learn how to choose you
I need to unlearn what I'm used to
Need to unlearn how to run when it feels right
Oh my God I'm trying

Excuse my mouth
But every time you run a little late
Hanging with your friends, I
Freak the fuck out
Then you come home
And your kiss tastes like mine
I'm fine
I keep bringing all my problems to a pillow fight
And I'm
Just trying to get to you

But it's not your fault
No it's not your fault
No it's not your fault, no no

'Cause if I'm gonna learn how to love you
I need to unlearn how to love too
Need to unlearn how to run when it feels right
Oh my God I'm trying

If I'm gonna learn how to choose you
I need to unlearn what I'm used to
Need to unlearn how to run when it feels right
Oh my God I'm trying

Gracie Abrams wrote "Unlearn" after she had broken up with her boyfriend in 2019. She explained on TikTok on the 17th of March 2021, "We were dating for 3 years. He was my best friend :) He went to school in New York then I moved there for college. It felt like we shouldn't be together anymore which made me feel sick. I would sit in the park and write for hours. Nothing felt right. I broke up with him basically out of nowhere. It was cold and painful. I really hurt him. It was fine for a few weeks even a little relieved and then it hit me and I couldn't sleep anymore. I used to throw up out of guilt, or I wouldn't eat for days and then get 3 milkshakes for dinner. I tried to reach out to him but he said he needed space. Every day I would write down everything I wanted to say to him. It almost always hurt and it still does. So I made this song and put it out :)" The song and its music video were released on the 24th of March 2021.
