Texty: Luscious Jackson. Fever In Fever Out. Soothe Yourself.

I've been soother and I've been wife
Tried to solve your life
Stuck with you through your rainy days
Thought that it was just a phase

When the sun came out I tried
To get away and fly
But the needs we had did not subside
What a way for our love to die

I've been hiding behind my gifts
I give until it starts to rip
The skin is torn where I begin
The thread is worn and might give in

Underneath it all I feel the eyes
Of all the things that I despise
Can I fight them off with sticks and stones?
Can I fight them off alone?

Soothe yourself, soothe yourself, soothe yourself

Now I'm thinking about my own advice
If I could soothe myself it might be nice
Callin' names ain't the same no more
Took a look and locked that door

Memories and cold hard facts
Watched it all come rushing back
All the times I told you what to do
All the times I thought I knew

Soothe yourself, soothe yourself, soothe yourself
Soothe yourself

Soothe yourself, soothe yourself, soothe yourself

Yourself
