The lead single off the Foiled Again EP, a collection of outtakes and remixes from Speedy Ortiz' 2015 album Foil Deer, is influenced by the anime Death Note.
Be kind to your bad self
Cause sooner or later you'll come out good
And after the black light
They note that a scratch reflects in the sun
[Chorus]
How many times do I have to say it?
How often can I say it until you believe?
They were all love letters
These are all love letters
To me
Be kind to your bad self
Cause sooner or later someone else grabs the whip
Conspirator feels for nothing
Tyrannical mandate in the hip of the square
[Chorus]
How many times do I have to say it?
How often can I say it until you believe?
They were all love letters
These are all love letters
To me
These kids grow so fast
Free passes don't count for much anymore
Spell out your mantra in ink
From a bone
Be kind to your bad self
How many times do I have to say it?
How many times do I have to say it?
Now you don't get letters
Cause I only send anything long form to me
To tell it like a pressure unspoken
How often can I say it until you believe?
These are all love letters
They were all love letters
These are all love letters
To me
