The title “It’s Not Real” reminds me of talking to myself during a panic attack, trying to convince myself that the negative images and thoughts spiraling in my head are not real. Contrary to the chaos and energy overload of a panic attack, Mable Ye‘s song is a chill, mellow and melancholy self-reflection. If you’re in need of existential crisis questions asked in a surprisingly calm way, this #SadcoreSundays song is for you.
Lyrics to “It’s Not Real” by Mabel Ye
Self-reflecting at my middle section
Self-respecting is an interjection
Did I expect a real connection
Healing, stealing all affection
Or did I ask for too much of you
Of you
It’s no way
There’s no way
I could be so true
Too soon
It’s so real
It’s not unreal
In my room
And I wonder if it’s all too
Too lonely for me
Do I have any friends
Or two
I take them
For granted
Oh
It cant be true
What I think of you
Who am I
It’s no way
There’s no way
I could be so true
Too soon
It’s so real
It’s not unreal
