Red House Painters - Have You Forgotten

I can't let you be,

cause your beauty won't 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 kasem's radio show

that's when friends were nice

to think of them just makes you feel nice

the smell of grass in spring

and October leaves cover everything


Have you forgotten how to love yourself? [x2]


I can't believe all the good things that you did for me

backyard summer pools and Christmases were beautiful

and the sentiment of coloured mirrored ornaments

and the open drapes

look out on frozen farmhouse landscapes


Have you forgotten how to love yourself?
