About Relationships

Produced by Danielle Haim and Rostam Batmanglij, the track blends the slick ’90s R&B influences the band explored on their 2017 album, Something to Tell You. Lyrically, it delves into the complexities of romantic relationships, portraying a cycle of self-sabotage. The accompanying music video, directed by Camille Summers-Valli .

Relationships Lyrics

[00:01.10] Wasting time, driving through the Eastside
[00:01.83] Doing my thing 'cause I can't decide if we're through
[00:06.96] Well, are we?
[00:07.84] And if we are, what we gonna do?
[00:14.69] Relationships, oh
[00:16.84] What's all this talk about relationships?
[00:21.53] It feels like everyone's caught up in it
[00:25.94] Oh, just you wait, you must be new to this
[00:30.10] (Goes like, goes like, goes like)
[00:33.48] You got a look on your face
[00:34.67] Like you're caught in a lie, lie, lie (Goes, goes like, goes like)
[00:38.32] I got you all to myself
[00:39.34] But I keep asking why, why why in this relationship
[00:44.32] Baby, how can I explain
[00:46.91] When an innocent mistake
[00:49.50] Turns into seventeen days? Fuckin' relationships
[00:53.92] Don't they end up all the same
[00:56.73] When there's no one left to blame?
[00:58.97] I think I'm in love, but I can't stand fuckin' relationships
[01:01.95] (Goes, goes like, goes like)
[01:05.12] Why do I have a guilty conscience?
[01:07.93] I've always been averse to conflict
[01:12.99] But you really fucked with my confidence
[01:16.79] (Goes like, goes like, goes like)
[01:21.61] You gotta tell me the truth
[01:23.73] If you don't want to try-y-y (Goes, goes like, goes like)
[01:26.06] I hear a voice in my head
[01:28.06] And it keeps asking, "Why am I in this relationship?"
[01:31.40] Baby, how can I explain
[01:34.53] When an innocent mistake
[01:37.29] Turns into seventeen days? Fuckin' relationships
[01:41.98] Don't they end up all the same
[01:44.37] When there's no one left to blame?
[01:46.53] I think I'm in love, but I can't stand fuckin' relationships
[01:50.84] (Goes, goes like, goes like)
[01:53.84] Relationships
[01:56.17] How did we get ourselves into this?
[01:57.16] Relationships
[01:58.60] Oh, this can't just be the way it is
[01:59.89] Relationships
[02:02.34] Or is it just the shit our parents did
[02:05.56] And had to live with it
[02:07.71] In their relationship?
[02:10.08] Relationships ('Ships, 'ships, 'ships)
[02:14.78] Relationships
[02:17.72] Fuckin' relationships
[02:20.28] Baby, how can I explain
[02:22.21] When an innocent mistake
[02:24.75] Turns into seventeen days? Fuckin' relationships
[02:29.55] Don't they end up all the same
[02:31.75] When there's no one left to blame?
[02:34.18] I think I'm in love, but I can't stand communicating it
[02:38.67] Let me tell you how it ends
[02:41.34] When we can't even pretend
[02:43.68] Feels like we're not even friends in this relationship
[02:48.28] But I would do it all again
[02:50.78] If you put down your defenses
[02:53.13] I think I'm in love, so why am I trying to escape from it?
[02:57.74] Maybe that's just how it goes
[03:00.18] When you're not fully grown
[03:02.66] But, baby, when you know, you know, fuckin' relationships
[03:07.03] So don't let it bring you down
[03:09.78] 'Cause it all comes back around
[03:12.43] I think I'm in love, but I can't stand fuckin' relationships
[03:16.86]
