Billie Eilish - Wish You Were Gay Lyrics

Billie Eilish Lyrics

"Wish You Were Gay"

"Baby, I don't feel so good"
Six words you never understood
"I'll never let you go"
Five words you'll never say
Aw
I laugh along like nothing's wrong
Four days has never felt so long
If three's a crowd and two was us
One slipped away

I just wanna make you feel okay
But all you do is look the other way
I can't tell you how much I wish I didn't wanna stay
I just kinda wish you were gay

Is there a reason we're not through?
Is there a twelve step just for you?
Our conversation's all in blue
Eleven "hey"s (hey, hey, hey, hey)
Ten fingers tearing out my hair
Nine times you never made it there
I ate alone at seven, you were six minutes away

Yay

How am I supposed to make you feel okay
When all you do is walk the other way?
I can't tell you how much I wish I didn't wanna stay
I just kinda wish you were gay

To spare my pride
To give your lack of interest an explanation
Don't say, I'm not your type
Just say that I'm not your preferred sexual orientation
I'm so selfish
But you make me feel helpless, yeah
And I can't stand another day
Stand another day

I just wanna make you feel okay
But all you do is look the other way
Hmm
I can't tell you how much I wish I didn't wanna stay
I just kinda wish you were gay
I just kinda wish you were gay
I just kinda wish you were gay

"Wish You Were Gay" is the 4th single from Billie Eilish's debut studio album "When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?". The song was released on March 4, 2019.

"I wrote this song about a guy that really was not interested in me and it made me feel horrible so the song is called 'Wish You Were Gay'. And that's so not meant to be offensive in any way. It literally means I wish he was gay so that he didn't like me for an actual reason. And guess what he just came out to me like a couple weeks ago. So I wrote the song and made him fuck a dude. I'm fucking proud bro except not really though because I was really into him, like so into him, he's so hot oh my god." - Billie Eilish.
