"Note To Self" lyrics

"Note To Self"

Tell my mother
Everything's alright
You know she's prone to worry 'bout me
Almost all the time
Tell my heart
My old, unfaithful friend
That I will not return and he will not
See me again

Tell my father
That he always said it best
"You must live within your head
And not within your chest"
Tell myself
Remember what is real
You live by what you know is true
And not by what you feel
Not what you feel

Please remember what you know
And don't let go
Just please come back home

Remember this
You are not alone
Though everything around you
Is growing dark and cold
Don't forget
You've been here before
Don't trust your eyes now
You know that there is more
There's so much more

Please remember what you know
And don't let go
Just please come back home

And see what's right here for you
It's always been
The only thing that's true
Stay awake when your eyes get heavy
Don't lose faith when the world's unsteady now
Be still and know

Please remember what you know
And don't let go
Just please come back home
