Mitski - Nobody (Lyrics)

"Around the thirtieth time Mitski cries out to “nobody, nobody, nobody” on her latest single, “Nobody,” the word begins to dissolve at the edges into a spectral echo, as if somebody has slipped so far from her imagination that its shape is decaying. “Nobody,” from her upcoming album Be the Cowboy, is Mitski gone disco, and she uses this shining opportunity to sing a love song to the void. The “planet of love” has been “destroyed by global warming,” Mitski sings, and so she won’t be going there. (...)

“Nobody” feels like a disarming glance into Mitski’s diary, though she is too wise for wallowing: “I know no one will save me,” she sings, a beam of self-assurance. Mitski wants “one good movie kiss,” but in the process she creates a more relatable idea: The lonely movies of people getting by on their own, replete with a consoling beat to dance to. (Mitski stars in her own, hairbrush microphone in hand, in the fantastically odd “Nobody” video.) Of course, as Mitski dedicates this lovely disco ballad to “nobody, nobody,” she conjures a feeling to which anyone can relate." - Pitchfork, Jenn Pelly, June 26 2018

♪ lyrics ♪

My God, I'm so lonely
So I open the window
To hear sounds of people
To hear sounds of people

Venus, planet of love
Was destroyed by global warming
Did its people want too much too?
Did its people want too much?

And I don't want your pity
I just want somebody near me
Guess I'm a coward
I just want to feel alright

And I know no one will save me
I just need someone to kiss
Give me one good honest kiss
And I'll be alright

Nobody, nobody, nobody
Nobody, nobody
Ooh, nobody, nobody, nobody

I've been big and small
And big and small
And big and small again
And still nobody wants me
Still nobody wants me

And I know no one will save me
I'm just asking for a kiss
Give me one good movie kiss
And I'll be alright

Nobody, nobody, nobody
Nobody, nobody
Ooh, nobody, nobody

Nobody, nobody, nobody
Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody
Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody
Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody
Nobody, nobody
Nobody, nobody, no

This song: **exists**
My relatable songs playlist: *Hola*

[crapshoot]

this song is either an anthem to scream when your home alone or a song to whisper to yourself at 3 am

[satoritendouuu]

It’s kinda hard to cry when you’re vibing this hard

[dorixxo]

"Why not me?" It's so relatable... Mitski really knows what vibes to give, her songs are just so good.

[emilyxvenable]

hearing the word "nobody" a bunch of times really makes you think about your existance

[graysongirl]

Last year i listened to this song on a bus full of crowded people and contemplated how strange it is that we can feel so lonely when we are not alone. This year covid has left my college virtually empty and i spend most of my time physically removed from people and damm if this song doesn't make you appreciate what you had or have

[KyomitheHunter]

perfect song to listen on a loop to when you're doing depression cleaning at 3am on a week day

[hammer]

"I dont want your pity, I just want somebody near me" hits. I hate being alone, it gives me anxiety but when people actually talk with me they just make me feel small cause it's always because they 'feel bad'. Listen I really appreciate it, but please dont do that—it makes me feel even worse.

[gwengrimes]

i can imagine this playing during a very violent scene/ montage

[sofia-ndxg]

i heard that mitski wrote this when she felt so lonely that all she could do was cry out nobody, so imagine how she feels when she performs this song and sees thousands of people who love her looking back at her....:)

[awhmuhlee]

Definitely not one of Mitski's best songs, but one of Mitski's most relatable songs.
That's why it's popular.

[picckl]

Cat: **doesn't come when I pstpstpstpst it**
Me:

[makoto]

nobody:
mitski reality just saying the word "nobody" a bunch of times:
*me crying*

[HighShepherdLopes]

Song hits me at "Venus, planet of love
Was destroyed by global warming
Did it's people want too much too"

[cludyfalls]

Some of her “nobody”s that she sang actually sounded painful and alone. This is an amazing song. Love it! ❤️

[juujjuli]

I found this because of a video of Goofy floating in water on his back and slowly turning as "nobody" played in the background

[vexnus.]

Teacher: So who understands?



The whole class:

[cookievampiress]

this song sounds like the end credits for an old 90's anime

[itzskye]

“I don’t want your pity, I just want someone near me”

I feel this so hard

[honeymoon]

why does every mitski song give off "walking home from school while trying to hold in tears" vibes
