This Isn’t Helping (feat. Phoebe Bridgers) - The National/Phoebe Bridgers

Lyrics by：Matt Berninger

Composed by：Aaron Dessner/Matt Berninger

I cannot believe what you get away with

You find beauty in anything

Whenever you look down into a sewer

You see a diamond ring

It isn't fair how you never look like you're trying

As if you couldn't care any less

And I'm here kicking myself to keep from crying

You say you're impressed

But this isn't helping at all

It only makes me wanna get further off

This isn't helping at all

This isn't helping

You say that this doesn't have to hurt

You're there if you need to be found

Can't you see that that makes it so much worse

I'll always see you around

Maybe in time we can give it one more try

But let's think about what matters now

Keep kicking yourself to keep from crying

That you're so right about

'Cause this isn't helping at all

I know you think it's kindness but it's not

This isn't helping at all

This isn't helping

Don't say that it's all your fault

I know you're banking on it coming up

But would your life be so bad

If you knew every single thought I had

'Cause I only have two things to say to you

But you say two things about everything babe

Well just when I thought

You don't even notice me at all

'Cause this isn't helping at all

It only makes me wanna get further off

This isn't helping at all

This isn't helping

This isn't helping at all

I know you think it's kindness but it's not

This isn't helping at all

This isn't helping
