Olivia O’Brien‘s new EP, Episodes: Season 1, is out today, June 11, bringing on that blunt realness we can always expect from Olivia.

Its songs are poignant, confident and don’t appear to hold anything back. We actually wish we could be more like that ourselves. If you can relate, keep scrolling for our very favorite emotional lyrics from the EP, which also make excellently candid Instagram captions.

For when your feelings are hurt and you’re not sure the other person cares:

“How do you feel nothing when I feel it all?”

-“Sociopath”

“Instead of fixin’ problems, I just run away. I save it for another day.”

For when you know your worth and you’re not afraid to flaunt it:

“I hope you know these other girls can’t ever be as bomb as me.”

-“Keep It Movin'”

For when the group of pals you have is all you need:

For joking about how broke you are at the moment:

“I just can’t afford to be rich any longer.”
