METTE - SELF PORTRAIT Lyrics

METTE Lyrics

"SELF PORTRAIT"

The lake looked like glass
He was the worst kisser I had to fake sick and blur my memory
Wash my mouth out in the sink till it's clean
Nothing better to do than lose my teeth on main street
Bejeweled and beguile everything
Rhinestone my flip phone
Pocket of my jeans

I been trying to trace a self portrait
There's something 'bout that kid that I can't forget
Days gone by I just stay busy
Is that living right?
So if I never make it to New York
Front page news or centerfold
That's alright I just stay busy
Is that living life?

When I finally come of age
I hope you recognize my face
Tell me
Tell me I haven't changed
Could be romanticizing?
While in the mirror dancing
Could be romanticizing?
The memory

I been trying to trace a self portrait
There's something 'bout that kid that I can't forget
Days gone by I just stay busy
Is that living right?
So if I never make it to New York
Front page news or centerfold
That's alright I just stay busy
Is that living life?

I been trying to trace a self portrait
There's something 'bout that kid that I can't forget
Days gone by I just stay busy
Is that living right?
So, I never made it to New York
Front page news or centerfold
That's alright, that's just fine
I'll keep spending time
