Men Like You Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I found out in ways I shouldn’t
You know you coulda dropped a line
Our time meant something, but to you it didn’t
How easy then to cast aside
[Chorus]
Oh, I know men like you
You live and breathe in shadows
How dare you make me choose
Between myself and shallow
You think you’re being cute
It only leaves me hollow
[Post-Chorus]
Girl, I know men like you
You- you, ooh
[Verse 2]
Set me up, your game for losing
You did it for the storyline
If all you ever wanted was a golden ticket
You could’ve just said it, it would’ve saved me time
[Chorus]
Oh, I know men like you
You live and breathe in shadows
You’ll find someone to use
Go make yourself the hero
If I can tell the truth
Well, all you are is shallow
[Post-Chorus]
Girl, I know men like you
You- you, ooh
[Bridge]
I remember your face
It got distorted somehow (Oh, oh, oh)
If you’re walking my way
I’ll ask you turn back around (Oh, oh, oh)
I remember your name
It sounds so different right now (Oh, oh, oh)
Hard to know what to say
When we’re six feet underground
[Verse 3]
Aftershock from how you’re moving
You’re right, you’re really blowing minds
Well, won’t you tell me what’s the cost then of the ones you’re losing?
Until you regret it, go on and claim your prize
[Chorus]
Oh, I know men like you
You live and breathe in shadows
How dare you make me choose
Between myself and shallow
[Post-Chorus]
You think you’re being cute
It only leaves me hollow
Girl, I know men like
You- you, ooh
[Outro]
You, you
You, ooh
You, you
You, ooh

Song Bio of Men Like You
Gracie Abrams turns heartbreak into something sharper on “Men Like You,” a standout from her new album Daughter from Hell, out July 17, 2026. Produced alongside Aaron Dessner, the track finds Abrams calling out a lover who used her story for his own gain, trading her signature vulnerability for real bite.
The verses trace betrayal and disillusionment, while the chorus lands like a verdict she’s already made peace with. It’s less about heartbreak than about clarity — the moment you stop excusing someone and start seeing them plainly. Restrained production lets her voice carry the weight, making this one of the most quietly cutting songs she’s released yet.
