Phoebe Bridgers - Motion Sickness Lyrics






I hate you for what you did
And I miss you like a little kid
I faked it every time but that's alright
I can hardly feel anything
I hardly feel anything at all

You gave me fifteen hundred
To see your hypnotherapist
I only went one time, you let it slide
Fell on hard times a year ago
Was hoping you would let it go and you did

I have emotional motion sickness
Somebody roll the windows down
There are no words in the English language
I could scream to drown you out

I'm on the outside looking through
You're throwing rocks around your room
And while you're bleeding on your back in the glass
I'll be glad that I made it out
And sorry that it all went down like it did

I have emotional motion sickness
Somebody roll the windows down
There are no words in the English language
I could scream to drown you out

And why do you sing with an English accent
I guess it's too late to change it now
You know I'm never gonna let you have it
But I will try to drown you out

You said when you met me you were bored
You said when you met me you were bored
And you you were in a band when I was born

I have emotional motion sickness
I try to stay clean and live without
And I want to know what would happen
If I surrender to the sound
Surrender to the sound

Phoebe Bridgers Motion Sickness Comments
  1. S.... V....

    Are we really going to act like Ryan Adams is the Weinstein of Indie Rock and pretend as if all these girls over the years didnt know what they were getting into? Obviously, watching this, the other girls didnt need to quit music and it sounds to me like an excuse to be an unproductive victim identity to mask the crippling fear of rejection. Adams is like a teenage prima donna. Hes an asshole and a mentally ill spaz who throws tantrums like a child in the grocery store and acts like Courtney Love except shorter and with lower testosterone levels. HOWEVER, he isnt a womanizing semi-rapist mysogynist (to name a few accusations in these comments.).

  2. H.... D....

    Kurapika cosplay

  3. l.... p....

    she looks like if victor from corpse bride bleached his hair

  4. B.... W....

    Nice track!

  5. A.... E....

    I'm a simple man: I see a lady in a suit and tie, I click.

  6. M.... L....

    Great songwriter, she won't be known as the greatest with qualifiers for much longer if she keeps going like this.

  7. C.... ....

    i'm literally so in lvoe wtf

  8. z.... ....

    So was the song played at two times speed for the lip sync and then played back at half speed so it looks slomo even though her mouth is moving in time with the music?

  9. E.... R....

    If a baby was made out of Keira Knightley and Brie Larson's DNA

  10. J.... G....

    I don't think I've ever had all my senses teased at once.. stunning art.

  11. N.... C....

    Mars Argo? Okay so here's this: Stop worshiping girls as survivors that thrive *in spite of* things guys do to break our will, and just realize girls put up with this shit our whole lives and we were always strong mf's and will always be damaged and thrive and do what we want anyway. Guys who perv are speedbumps, not sinkholes, and are worth as much as the dirt they're made of. Saying oh, so glad Ryan Adams didn't ruin her is giving him too much power. This is the story of Womanhood throughout the ages and one ugly famous pud won't mar the entirety of someone's creativity, instead, it might just add some ammo.

  12. R.... J....

    Ah yes. From the whiny school of Indie music.

  13. e.... ....

    i don't know what it is about this girls eyes but they cut deep into my soul

  14. K.... B....

    Some kinda Daniel Johns lookin look

  15. d.... ....

    Hot track. Questions: How does an Angelino come to be so pale? What's with the scooter?

  16. o.... ....

    imagine being this hot

  17. T.... C....

    Anyone know what hotel that is at the beginning? I so badly want to stay in the "Phoebe Room."

  18. E.... ....

    LOVE IT

  19. E.... M....

    This is the exact song I need right now thank you

    First time listener

  20. N.... B....

    Nice opening

  21. A.... D....

    she is so fucking talented.

  22. T.... ....

    Somehow i get the killers vibe in this... Kinda wish brandon flowers would cover this song

  23. l.... ....

    I hate you for what you did , and I miss you like a little kid

  24. b.... p....

    Does Ryan sing with an English accent? I've been listening to him for years and I'm English and I've never noticed 🤔

  25. A.... E....

    Stunning ✨

  26. Y.... O....

    Anyone getting DeathCab vibes from this?

  27. M.... I....

    I have the biggest crush on Phoebe Bridgers. What a beautiful, talented, and deep human being. <3

  28. B.... I....

    Didn't know you can be that young and that dull.

  29. p.... ....

    One of the most devastating opening lines ever

  30. s.... s....

    Could she possibly be any cuter? The answer is no, no she could not.

  31. R.... M....

    I think I fell in love with you <3 Please make it possible touring through Germany !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  32. d.... ....

    I wonder what city this video was filmed

  33. M.... C....

    there are no words to describe the severity of the crush i have on her

  34. T.... U....

    In a thumbnail I thought it was Titanic Sinclair for a second

  35. M.... A....

    the only thing that matters to me is to have my own family, I need my money or you all killed everything I ever was. you are the worst people who have ever lived. all of you are.

  36. M.... A....

    I hate what ive been put through by my country, I wish I was never born, with what been forced into it has never been worth living, my entire life was overkill abuse and it was worse then any of you understand, I know that none of you have suffered the levels of pain oi have, I can hear it.

  37. F.... Y....

    She sounds like Joni Mitchell.

  38. J.... B....

    David Sylvian vibes

  39. O.... F....

    #OdedMusic #OdedFriedGaon #Audioded

  40. R.... A....

    Brie Larson? Is that you?

  41. T.... ....

    If I was a normie who consumed music through Youtube alone I wouldn't enjoy this song as much. the music video kind of saps the passion out of the song. the music video itself merely poses as a selling point for her music, kind of a checkmark for record labels to market a song/album/artist. eh, not the same as listening to the whole album and crying along solely to the lyricism. Love you Phoebe

  42. s.... ....

    john lennon has never looked so good

  43. A.... R....

    Woooo! Conor is dumb if he didn't get on that on the tour

  44. R.... T....

    How does such a song go unnoticed on most radios.
    Fantastic

  45. M.... R....

    I just want to say you're amazing and you're voice has a raw talent and an emotional weight that shatters the heart and builds it up again, piece by piece with your words. 😭😭, I have no words except for you're a magician and this is a masterpiece ❤️.

  46. J.... D....

    this song is so catchy!

  47. A.... ....

    I know It has been said but minute 2:39 is an EPIC FAIL.

  48. R.... ....

    Miss misery street. Fuck yeah

  49. E.... G....

    First lines of the song are basically bodyshaming against men.

    E.... G....

    May I ask how...?

    E.... G....

    @EVA "I faked it everytime, I hardly feel anything".

  50. f.... ....

    i'm sorry but if you date someone for a long time and claim you love them, then they dump you, and then you go and tell everyone they 'emotionally abused' you that whole time, you are full of shit and are obviously piggybacking a movement to hurt the person who hurt you. What constitutes 'emotional abuse' anyway? He said some mean shit to you on occasion? Oooh big deal I thought you were all supposed to be strong independent women FFS and I suppose you were an angel the entire time? Or is it only women who get to be the abused victim when they exercise the exact same behaviour themselves. PS then to take cheap shots in a public forum like 'I faked it every time' and teasing him for the way he sings and his age, just shows a pettiness, and isn't that in itself 'emotional abuse' or is it OK because she's the woman? and the big irony is not only did she use him to help her career in the first place, by then coming out later and pinning this garbage on him she also drew attention to herself and used him again as a tool for her career. but in the eyes of most she's just this poor victim.. makes me sick

  51. T.... M....

    Is she better than Sandy Denny?

  52. S.... ....

    she looks a little like Kourtney Kardashian

  53. L.... A....

    I would like to ejaculate inside your various orifices.

  54. S.... S....

    *slaps roof of car*
    THIS BAD BOY CAN FIT SO MUCH FKKING EMOTION IN IT...

  55. A.... B....

    Mike Mogis.

  56. G.... M....

    Her look in this video gives off real Ellen Page vibes and I dig it

  57. L.... W....

    My favorite female vocalist. Thank you

  58. S.... R....

    Is she scootering down the same street that Elliott Smith walks down in the Miss Misery video?

  59. R.... ....

    Wow, that's a cutie patootie in a suitie on a scootie.

  60. P.... &....

    Conor’s so lucky

  61. Z.... B....

    phoebe bridgers is boyfriend

  62. 7.... ....

    I've listened to this 50 times in the past week.

  63. D.... ....

    I love these girl, I don't know why but I love like my girlfriend.

  64. M.... A....

    I’m about to do my damndest to rip your sonic style off. Just a heads up. Thanks.

  65. K.... S....

    She is out of this world

  66. S.... P....

    So relatable. I to remember how my sugar daddy gave me tons of money to see a therapist. #whitegirlproblems

  67. B.... ....

    I’m a dude and this makes me wanna be a lesbian. God, I love this !

  68. m.... ....

    my favourite dead eyes

  69. A.... ....

    Im a dude, and i also want to look exactly like her <3 Such an amazing song ^w^

  70. k.... m....

    nice job

  71. B.... L....

    "I hate you for what you did, and I miss you like a little kid"

    Perfectly sums up the combination of heartbreak and betrayal

    B.... L....

    Agreed. When someone you like has great qualities and then they sour the milk via one serious flaw, it's tough to accept and tears you up inside.

  72. P.... D....

    Such a good tune

  73. O.... P....

    Nice scooter.

  74. J.... G....

    Can someone explain to me what happened to her and Ryan Adams?

  75. J.... ....

    She looks like if you took a normal girl and turned the saturation to 0

  76. k.... ....

    She looks a bit like Lauren Tsai

  77. N.... ....

    Did... Did YouTube recommendations finally crack the code of what music I'll like??

  78. D.... B....

    Incredibly sexy but the song is rubbish.

  79. C.... ....

    this song turned me into a lesbian, and im a guy

    C.... ....

    Cheese yikes

    C.... ....

    @Viki Habeš homophobic

    C.... ....

    this video turned me into a lesbian, and i already was one.

    C.... ....

    @ihfycrtdd their picture is lana and marina, if they were homophobic i would be genuinely shocked

    C.... ....

    😂😂😂😂

  80. G.... W....

    1:38 phoebe that car is trying to go substantially faster than you are going!! Rules of the road

  81. M.... ....

    Hi, I did a very spontaneous cover of this song with my ukulele while I was traveling in sweden this summer and I uploaded it. Anyone who's reading, feel free to check it out ;)

  82. Z.... B....

    6.9rookEternasEESSeternasCaptainZach22

  83. 6.... ....

    Is her makeup ironic in this video???

  84. C.... N....

    I watched Aldous Harding...and Youtube suggestions came up with THIS!!!
    Those algorithms are obviously not as smart as people think they are.

  85. D.... I....

    Antimusic

  86. d.... ....

    This would be perfect for an episode of "BoJack Horseman". If it was my choice it would be on the final moments/credits of the final episode of the show.

    d.... ....

    Not sure about the final moments, but it would totally fit with the show.

  87. D.... R....

    I wonder if she was produced by the same person who did some of Daughter's songs? She sounds very much like them vocally, and that first line is almost identical. So, if you like this, you might like them as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fYg2mMW63Eg

  88. b.... ....

    Wow, can't believe she's only 25! Keep making great music Phoebe <3

  89. D.... ....

    I like how she’s mindful of the traffic on her scooter. Then BAM! Trolls in front of a car, haha.

  90. E.... S....

    nice song

  91. a.... J....

    Shes really lucky to have worked with conor.shes great too .conor has a bright eyes song called motion sickness too

  92. J.... C....

    Came here because of between two ferns… Stayed because of your music… You’re unforgettably refreshing

    J.... C....

    Joel Cullers yup! That makes you and I both

  93. D.... G....

    sounds like the weepies. That is fantastic. The weepies are great.

  94. T.... P....

    Let's sesh! Jk we'd probably die.
