about

This song is about all the people my mother let walk all over her. Like this one time her friends threw her a birthday party and drugged the punch. She woke up naked, with her apartment mostly empty. After that she still associated herself with a lot of them.

The verses are love letters between her and a specific person, which Care-Bear was my mothers nickname for her. The choruses are what I wish I could tell her.

I wrote while sitting outside my house one night.

lyrics

"Hello, Miss Beautiful
Here is a postcard
From a place I'd love to live
Maybe someday
I love you lady
I must have done something right
to have you in my life
Adventures here we come"


And don't let them in
They are breaking in
These Hyenas
are not you friends
And don't them in
They are burrowing
And once they get in
They are never leaving


"You're so pretty
and charming
And full of so much past pain
And I am so stuck sometimes
in your eyes
I get lost
Stop pulling society rank on me
Jesus doesn't much care
how much your parents make
Neither do I, okay?
I love you
Care-Bear"



And now that you have let them in
You feel love and compassion
For those who are stealing from you
and they are trying to hurt you
But I don't blame you
For it is all that you ever knew
And don't let her in
Charlotte
She is not you friend
You should know better than this
And don't let her in
She will lead you to your death
And her eyes have never met
the body that she has left
