Cover art for Save Yourself lyrics by Sharon Van Etten

these are just from the cd booklet:

I want every town. I need you to know - There's nothing left to sell me. I'm broke. I just want these holes for when I try to run for no reason, or so I'm told. Don't you think I know you're only trying to save yourself? Don't you think I know you're only trying to save yourself? (ooh...) Ancient in one long, incidental month. You had a bad day, I want home. You still make me smile, as much as I am reelin'... It had been a while. Please don't make me show I'm not your gal... Don't you think I know you're only trying to save yourself? Don't you think I know you're only trying to save yourself? Just like everyone else. (ooh...oooh...) Try and make me feel like I'm your number one, every other one. Well, shit - get real. Know you're balding still. You're older than you feel. Think a little harder, A little modest and humble be. I won't wait around. Don't you think I know you're only trying to save yourself? Don't you think I know you're only trying to save yourself? Just like everyone else. You're just like everyone else.

It HAS been awhile*
