My Best Self (My Version)
I just got a new tattoo, chaos in suburban shoes
I forgot what city life is like
A bit too old for cigarettes, and don't believe in side effects
But smoking cloves will probably make you blind
I don't know who I am much beyond 22
All I know is I've got you
Help me love myself the way you love me
So who I am tomorrow is who I'm meant to be
If I could love myself the way you love me
I'd be bad and bold, and beautiful, and stronger than I think
The way you love me
All my friends feel good or bad, they take little pills for that
I take whiskey neat, with no advice
All these years I've played along, cheeky looks and clever songs
Sign my contracts, never thinkin' twice
And I don't know who I am much beyond 22
All I know is I've got you
Help me love myself the way you love me
So who I am tomorrow is who I'm meant to be
If I could love myself the way you love me
I'd be bad and bold, and beautiful, and stronger than I think
The way you love me
Ooh-ooh, the way you love me
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
What if I was never great? My best self was '98
When I bleached my tips and listened to Sublime
Maybe one day I'll relax, but I'm too busy to unpack
I'll just be here runnin' out of time
Help me love myself the way you love me
So who I am tomorrow is who I'm meant to be
If I could love myself the way you love me
I'd be bad and bold, and beautiful, and stronger than I think
The way you love me
Sing your song again, go make a mess and call your friends
Swim the ocean, climb a mountain, don't you worry how it ends
(If I could sing your song again) go make a mess and call your friends
Swim the ocean, climb a mountain, don't you worry how it ends
The way you love me
I forgot what city life is like
A bit too old for cigarettes, and don't believe in side effects
But smoking cloves will probably make you blind
I don't know who I am much beyond 22
All I know is I've got you
Help me love myself the way you love me
So who I am tomorrow is who I'm meant to be
If I could love myself the way you love me
I'd be bad and bold, and beautiful, and stronger than I think
The way you love me
All my friends feel good or bad, they take little pills for that
I take whiskey neat, with no advice
All these years I've played along, cheeky looks and clever songs
Sign my contracts, never thinkin' twice
And I don't know who I am much beyond 22
All I know is I've got you
Help me love myself the way you love me
So who I am tomorrow is who I'm meant to be
If I could love myself the way you love me
I'd be bad and bold, and beautiful, and stronger than I think
The way you love me
Ooh-ooh, the way you love me
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
What if I was never great? My best self was '98
When I bleached my tips and listened to Sublime
Maybe one day I'll relax, but I'm too busy to unpack
I'll just be here runnin' out of time
Help me love myself the way you love me
So who I am tomorrow is who I'm meant to be
If I could love myself the way you love me
I'd be bad and bold, and beautiful, and stronger than I think
The way you love me
Sing your song again, go make a mess and call your friends
Swim the ocean, climb a mountain, don't you worry how it ends
(If I could sing your song again) go make a mess and call your friends
Swim the ocean, climb a mountain, don't you worry how it ends
The way you love me
