Rilo Kiley – A Better Son/Daughter Lyrics 21 years ago
this is my favorite rilo kiley song!

i love the lines

"And you’ll be better
And you’ll be smarter
And more grown up and a better daughter or son
And a real good friend
And you’ll be awake
You’ll be alert
You’ll be positive though it hurts
And you’ll laugh and embrace all your friends
And you’ll be a real good listener
You’ll be honest
You’ll be brave
You’ll be handsome and you’ll be beautiful
You’ll be happy "

it's about being depressed, and when you stop being depressed you're a better person. you have more compassion. you understand more things. you gain an appreciation you could have never gained without being depressed. this is the truest song i have ever listened to. it's not just about being bipolar, its about eventually feeling better, and understanding things in a different light. it's so truthful it hurts!
