song  

I cant let you be
cause your beauty wont allow me
Wrapped in white sheets
like an angel from a bedtime story
Shut out what they say
cause your friends are fucked up anyway
And when they come around,
somehow they feel up and you feel down

When we were kids,
we hated things our parents did
We listened low
to Casey Kasems radio show
Thats when friends were nice
To think of them just makes you feel nice
The smell of grass in spring
In October, leaves cover everything

Have you forgotten how to love yourself?

I cant believe
all the good things that you do for me
Sit back in the chair
like a princess from a far away place
Nobodys nice
When youre older your heart turns to ice
And shut out what they say
Theyre too dumb to mean it anyway

When we were kids,
we hated things our sisters did
Backyard summer pools
and Christmases were beautiful
And the sentiment
of colored mirrored ornaments
And the open drapes
look out on frozen farmhouse landscapes

Have you forgotten how to love yourself?

Have you forgotten how to love yourself?

Have you forgotten how to love yourself?
