[Verse 1]
Note to self: clean the living room
Do the things you don't want to do
Maybe, fold that week old pile of clothes
And note to self: get some exercise
Feels bad and you have to try
But as far as I can tell that's how life goes
[Chorus]
And note to self: don't let yourself worry quite as much
It'll end up fine enough; it always has up until now
Something else: you should think of other people a little more
You should've thought of that before cause of everything you've written down, this the first note that you wrote for someone else
Note to self
[Verse 2]
Note to self: keep choosing her
Cause she's yours and wonderful
And 'ever is a long time to be sad
And one more thing: call your mother back
Talk for too long, it's probably half of what she'd like, but she's the only mother that you have
[Chorus]
Oh and don't let yourself worry quite as much
It'll end up fine enough; it always has up until now
Something else: you should think of other people a little more
You should've thought of that before cause of everything you've written down, this the first note that you wrote for someone else
Note to self
[Bridge]
And I don't know how long I have to keep reminding myself to be who I want to be and not somebody else
Just thought by now I'd figure out the who and how I want to be
[Outro]
Because I still let myself worry way too much
And it ends up fine enough; it always has and does still now
And I still need to think of other people more
Yes, I've thought of that before
Maybe one day I'll figure out you don't find peace till you love somebody else
You don't find peace till you love somebody else
