lyrics

When you’re ready

Note to self
When it’s over

Cleanse yourself.
Seriously, treat your skin really well
Take a bath, strike a match, light a candle
Look at yourself in the mirror in soft lighting
Spend lots of time in the bathroom
Like lots of time

But escape your bedroom — seriously
Out the windows or through the door
Take a walk
Get some fresh air in your lungs
Or get some bad air in your lungs
Smoke a cigarette and then put it out under your
shoes
Breathe in deeply and appreciate the fresh air
Remind yourself how good it feels
after something bad for you and with a little head rush

Escape your bedroom — metaphorically
Stay in bed and read fiction
Fiction centered around strong protagonists who
are flawed and beautiful
and couldn’t give less of a fuck
and everytime they say something especially
badass
Say it outloud to yourself
Use a lot of hand gesticulation

Badasses use their hands

Badasses have cool hair
Cut or dye or shave yours


Get a tattoo — nothing too meaningful
a piercing maybe


Wrap yourself in cotton
Be kind to your reflection
Be forgiving to yourself
Process things as non-linearly as you need to


And turn off the radio
The radio will never be the answer
Turn off the fucking radio
Make your own playlist
Stop leave things to chance and calling it fate
Remind yourself of the things you can control

Tell your close friends
(You know you’re better off)
Let them tell you you’re way better off
Roll your eyes so far into the back of your head,
But listen

Call your mother
Call your mother
(Hello)
Let her tell you she’s sorry
Let her tell you she loves you
Let her nag you about menial adult things That
you’ve neglected to do
And then focus on those things for a while
As a distraction
Allow yourself distractions

And buy new shoes
Sexy enough that your feet make your hands
jealous
Sensible enough to run away from serial killers
Heavy enough to keep you grounded
Heavy enough to keep you from getting swept off
those feet so easily next time
