Self Preservation Songtext
von Emily C. Browning

Self preservation
Need validation

I feel it coming
Around the bend
A fling with a bee sting

Stick my head in the shower
Let it go in my ears
Will it clean my thoughts
Or drip like tears?

It′s not that I don't like you
In fact I′m trying not to
I'm pulling all the stops just to
Keep a hold on my

Self preservation
Try not to need the validation
Keeping myself (self preservation)
Keeping myself (need validation)


And it's hard to get over
When there′s nothing underneath
There′s no foundation

Stick myself in the laundry
'Til I shrink in the tub
My woollen heart
Is at a loss

And it′s not that I don't want you
In fact I′m trying not to
I'm pulling all the stops just to
Keep a hold on

Self preservation
Try not to need the validation
Keeping myself (self preservation)
Keeping myself (need validation)
Keeping myself (self preservation)
Lord knows I need help (need validation)

Self preservation
Need validation
Self preservation
Self preservation
