"Bellyache" lyrics

"Bellyache"

Mind
Mind

Sittin' all alone
Mouth full of gum
In the driveway
My friends aren't far
In the back of my car
Lay their bodies

Where's my mind?
Where's my mind?

They'll be here pretty soon
Lookin' through my room
For the money
I'm bitin' my nails
I'm too young to go to jail
It's kinda funny

Where's my mind?
Where's my mind?
Where's my mind?
Where's my mind?

Maybe it's in the gutter
Where I left my lover
What an expensive fake
My V is for Vendetta
Thought that I'd feel better
But now I got a bellyache
(Mind)

Everything I do
The way I wear my noose
Like a necklace
I wanna make 'em scared
Like I could be anywhere
Like I'm reckless

I lost my mind
I don't mind
Where's my mind?
Where's my mind?

Maybe it's in the gutter
Where I left my lover
What an expensive fake
My V is for Vendetta
Thought that I'd feel better
But now I got a bellyache

(Bellyache, bellyache, bellyache, bellyache, bellyache, bellyache)

Maybe it's in the gutter (Mind)
Where I left my lover
What an expensive fake (Mind)
My V is for Vendetta (Mind)
Thought that I'd feel better
But now I got a bellyache

According to Billie Eilish interview for Teen Vogue, this song was inspired by Tyler, The Creator's song, "Garbage".
Billie Eilish explained, "That character isn't me—but it also is. The song is really about doing terrible things and not really knowing. We have this whole idea about it—like, you're doing these terrible things and then you're like, 'Wait, what am I doing? Why did I just do that? Where is my mind? Maybe it's in the gutter!'"
In an interview with Eve Barlow of Noisey, Billie Eilish said, "It's obviously fictional. When me and my brother are writing we find it fun to put yourself into character or become someone else, to write about something we've never done before. 'bellyache' is about the concept of guilt, when you do things in the moment because you feel so strongly about them. In the end you're left with the decision you made."
