My Best Self (My Version)

[Verse 1]
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 ya blind

[Pre-Chorus]
And I don't know who I am much beyond twenty-two
All I know is I've got you

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
All my friends feel good or bad
They take little pills for that
I take whiskеy neat with no advice
All thesе years I've played along
Cheeky looks and clever songs
Sign my contracts never thinking twice

[Pre-Chorus]
And I don't know who I am much beyond twenty-two
All I know is I've got you

[Chorus]
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 the way you love me oh-oh oh

[Bridge]
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 running out of time

[Chorus]
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

[Outro]
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 love myself) 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
