Orla Gartland - Figure It Out (lyric video)

special thanks to Gareth Rowntree

lyrics:

I know I never said it
But I thought that you’d figure it out

I see your name light up on my phone
I feel a little differently about you than I did not long ago

You drank too much beer and you got afraid
You don’t remember typing in my number
I say it’s okay
It’s not okay

Next new year’s eve I’ll see you there
We’ll rotate around the room on different planets
I say I don’t’ care
But I care

And I never say it but I fucking hate it
You ask if I mind
Then you’re right there and it’s not fair

I
I know I never said it
But I thought that you’d figure it out
I
Don’t have the heart to break it
So I’m hoping you’ll figure it

Out with our friends I’m speaking in codes
You know everything there is to know about me
It’s hard to let go when you don’t let go

And I heard that you’ve been doing fine
And renting my old room and I
Hope you don’t resent me for the way that I’ve been dealing with it
I’m not dealing with it well

And I can’t explain it
I’m more than just jaded
You ask if I mind
Then you’re right there and it’s not fair

I
I know I never said it
But I thought that you’d figure it out
I
Don’t have the heart to break it
So I’m hoping you’ll figure it out

I know I never said it
But I thought that you’d figure it out
Don’t have the heart to break it
So I’m hoping you’ll figure it out

It’s not hard to read my mind
When I’m making it so obvious
So I’m hoping you’ll figure it out
It’s not hard to read my mind
When I’m making it so obvious
So I’m hoping you’ll figure it out

It’s not hard to read my mind
When I’m making it so obvious

I really like the aesthetic of this Orla era

[ReyJ]

I love how filming this she just sat there for a few minutes grabbing her hair every now and then

[SoularSlothesk]

"It's not hard to read my mind when I'm making it so obvious"
On the back of her head, like you're reading her thoughts.

[Miranda_]

I love this, it’s such a creative way of doing a lyric video

[Megsgiallo]

ive never been so immediately obsessed with a song theres so many parts of this somg where i fell in love over and over again thankyouthankyouthankyou

[SoniaOReilly]

who would've thought that the back of orla's head would made such a great projector? ps: i love you

[tristanstevens]

I loved the end! When she yells "so I hope that you'll figure it!" and doesn't say the "out". As though to let him figure it (out). Ooo!! I appreciate this little detail!

[annsofie]

I love it when a song captures and catches the feelings you’re feeling like this

[wrenbunce]

fun detail: at about 1:33 the song says “our friends” but the lyrics on screen say “my friends”

[bryanr]

WHY DOES THIS SONG FIT MY LIFE SITUATION RIGHT NOW OMG


*MY NEW FAVORITE*

[silentwhispr]

Yeah. Each song Orla makes is a masterpiece. At a certain point we have to realize Orla Gartland is a masterpiece

[HushIAmTalking]

I can FEEL the frustration radiating from this song. Love it

[TanguyBlanchard]

This is so insane. Your voice reminds we of a young Matt Bellamy here. Never realised how insane your control and range actually are

[ei]

Ugh this song hits so close it's crazy. And a huge relief that there is a song for being the person who just can't say stuff and would rather forget.

[chlomak]

ok but orla’s read my mind. literally everything ive been feeling recently and with her new songs coming out ive related to. all the songs are angry jams and i love it, thank you.

[lilyyazdi]

orla never fails to amaze me with her music

[allergictoalliteration]

I like to think the beginning of the song is the ending too, bringing it in a full circle. It reminds me that I'm having the same thoughts and conversations over and over with someone in my life right now.

Sigh, I hope that you've been doing fine, Orla. ♥️

[itmedana]

THIS SONG IS SO GOOD. i really don’t know how you reach directly into my
brain and harvest my memories to turn them into songs but ITS MAGICAL

[inespelegrin]

When I saw this song was coming out I felt so excited. The first time I heard it was when I flew all the way from Spain to go to one of her concerts in London in April, and when I was back home I went crazy trying to find it.
Orla, I couldn't believe that (being one of my favorite artists) you were even better performing live. I was expecting a good concert, but it was absolutely amazing. 100% lost it at the 2:33 part in the concert.

[Tomonkey]

I have a playlist waiting for this song to hit Google Play. I love how "normal" this sounds despite having a 6 beat measure. That's so cool.
