girl i’ve always been by Olivia Rodrigo

Artist: Olivia Rodrigo

Genre: Pop

Length: 2:01

On “girl i’ve always been,” Olivia experiments with country elements and a southern twang, in a big departure from her usual sound. The song was first teased in a retro infomercial for Olivia’s sophomore album, GUTS, two days before the album’s release. An intentional “glitch” in the video revealed the titles of four bonus tracks that were not part of the standard edition, including “girl i’ve always been.” When the album released, fans discovered that the song was included on the “S” purple...

girl i’ve always been lyrics

Five, six
Five, six, seven, eight
Two, three
"Baby doll, you have changed"
That's the thing you always say
Cursin' me, trash my name
I rained all over your parade
Now you're on my couch, you're fightin' tears
You say I'm cruel beyond my years
And as I'm walkin' out that door
Say you don't know me anymore
Well, I have captors I call friends
I got panic rooms inside my head
And I get down with crooked men
But I am the girl I've always been
I got wrapped up in the game again
You woke up in an empty bed
And I can't say I'm a perfect ten
But I am the girl I've always been
So don't say that I've been actin' different
I'm nothin' if I'm not consistent
You knew everything you'd be gettin'
I told you right from the beginnin'
Now you're on my case, how could I go?
You never dreamed I'd be so cold
And then with venom on your tongue
You ask me who I have become
Well, I have captors I call friends
I got panic rooms inside my head
And I get down with crooked men
But I am the girl I've always been
I got wrapped up in the game again
And you woke up in an empty bed
And I can't say I'm a perfect ten
But I am the girl I've always been
Yeah, I'm a candle in the wind
I'll turn you out, I'll turn you in
But I am the girl I've always been
