Billie Eilish - What Was I Made For? Lyrics

 Billie Eilish - What Was I Made For? Lyrics

 [From The Motion Picture “Barbie”]


I Used To Float, Now I Just Fall Down

I Used To Know But I’m Not Sure Now

What I Was Made For

What Was I Made For?

Takin’ A Drive, I Was An Ideal

Looked So Alive, Turns Out, I’m Not Real

Just Something You Paid For

What Was I Made For?


‘Cause I, I

I Don’t Know How To Feel

But I Wanna Try

I Don’t Know How To Feel

But Someday I Might

Someday I Might



Mm, Mm-Mm, Aah-Ooh

Mm-Mm-Mm, Mm-Mm, Mm-Mm


When Did It End? All The Enjoyment

I’m Sad Again, Don’t Tell My Boyfriend

It’s Not What He’s Made For

What Was I Made For?


‘Cause I, ‘Cause I

I Don’t Know How To Feel

But I Wanna Try

I Don’t Know How To Feel

But Someday I Might

Someday I Might


Think I Forgot How To Be Happy

Something I’m Not, But Something I Can Be

Something I Wait For

Something I’m Made For

Something I’m Made For
