Paint your nails perfect just before you die
Tell all your friends to hit the trends
Try not to pry
Try not to try
Forget to tell your mom how much it hurts you both
Forget to tell your papa she's runnin' for herself
Try not to pry
Try not to try
Cause the smoke in the air can make your lungs a crowd
Her hair smells different when she's in from being out
Try not to pry
Try not to try
Break all the rules for the love of your mom
Break all the rules for the love of yourself when it goes south
Please don't forget
Cause I forget all the time
But remember just enough
To run off and make everything up in my mind
But I don't mean to
But I don't mean to
Write so many words until your life comes close
Marinate your hopes and let them soak
Try not to pry
Try not to try
Cause I can promise that soon the smoke will all blow west
But I can't promise soon that your head will rest
Try not to pry
Try not to try
Break all the rules for the love of your mom
Break all the rules for the love of yourself when it goes south
Please don't forget
Cause I forget all the time
But remember just enough
To run off and make everything up in my mind
But I don't mean to
But I don't mean to
