This song started its life as a poem. When we were producing it, I wanted to make it feel like a message in a dream.. so that’s why we put all the weird water sounds in there and stuff! It’s basically me telling my younger self that I’m sorry she had to go through all the shit that she did, but that...
Teenage self
Know you're going through hell
Know you're hard on yourself
But you're trying
No one else you can tell the bitter truth
Spill your darkest secrets to
So you're lying
When you're seventeen mistakes are made, are made for making
But you're too young to feel this kind of pain
I'm speaking from the other side
It's a pretty brutal ride
But you're safe
Teenage self
I remember how it felt
And I can't believe that I let you go through it
Swear I'm sure, you're not his, you are yours
Please forgive yourself for what he ruined
