Friendly Reminder

Tied flowers in the laces of my boots

This year drained the color from my mood

I took one too many beatings

I was left broken and bleeding

I woke up and covered up my bruise

Hey, hey

I feel it

Hey, hey

I know it

Hey, hey

I give myself

A friendly reminder

Remember to smile

Remember the pain only lasts for awhile

(take it take it all away)

Throw away the last year is in the past

Tell it to myself right now

A friendly reminder

(take it, take it all away)

And next time that I'm feeling so damn low

Keep telling myself that I'm not alone

I know I couldn't take it

I woke up in a Wasteland

I retrace my steps to get back home

Hey, hey

I feel it

Hey, hey

I know it

Hey, hey

I give myself

A friendly reminder

Remember to smile

Remember the pain only lasts for awhile

(take it take it all away)

Throw away the last year is in the past

Tell it to myself right now

A friendly reminder

(take it, take it all away)

Down the drain I climb my way out

Let it rain down then

(take it, take it all away)

Do your worst I'll be alright

One day at a time

A friendly reminder

Remember to smile

Remember the pain only lasts for awhile

(take it take it all away)

Throw away the last year is in the past

Tell it to myself right now

A friendly reminder

(take it, take it all away)
