A Better Son/Daughter - Rilo Kiley

Then you hang up the phone and feel badly for upsetting things
Crawl back into bed to dream of a time
When your heart was open wide and you loved things just because
Like the sick and dying

And sometimes when you’re on
You’re really fucking on
And your friends they sing along
And they love you…

And you’ll show up for work with a smile
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
