[English]

Remember me beautiful

That sentiment probably ain't true at all

Tell them I was such a funny girl

Annoying's probably a better word

You should tell them I was everything

Made the winters feel like spring

You should say I was incredible

That one wouldn't be a lie at all

Blonde curls, big eyes like Brittany Murphy

Superstar girl, ballerina twirling

Make them all know I was great

'Til I crashed out, out

Father, please forgive me for all my actions

Found the box that I tried to hide my past in, yeah

Help myself to these filthy little habits

Stumble, asking the bouncer, "Where's my jacket?"

Do you notice

All I've done?

Do you notice

All I've done?

Tell them I am sorry for

The gun inside my bedroom drawer

This was inevitable

Only thought it'd make you love me more

Say that I am in a better place

When you see my mother's face

Please just tell them all I did my best

When you lay it all to rest

Father, please forgive me for all my actions

Failed in ways that you couldn't even imagine, yeah

Lucky strike if I roll some lucky sevens

Tweakin', asking him, "Where's my fucking jacket?"

Do you notice

All I've done?

Do you notice

All I've done?

Do you notice

All I've done?

Do you notice

All I've done?

'Tis the season, bitch, time to hunt some rabbit

My picture on a page, you're sad, staring at it

Is my face too disgusting for open casket?

Make sure they got red roses, I'm old fashioned

Make sure you book a good band to get it crackin'

Too busy to hang next week, so quit asking

I'm sorry I left the party

Do you notice

All I've done?

Do you notice

All I've done?

Key Grammar Structures

• Remember me beautiful

  ➔ Imperative mood

  ➔ The sentence is a direct command or request. The verb 'remember' is used without a subject, implying 'you'. It's a common way to express a desire for how one will be remembered.

• That sentiment probably ain't true at all

  ➔ Double negative & Contraction

  ➔ The use of 'ain't' is a contraction of 'is not' or 'are not' and is considered non-standard English. The phrase 'probably ain't true' employs a double negative ('ain't' negates 'true'), which, while grammatically incorrect in standard English, is common in colloquial speech for emphasis.

• This was inevitable

  ➔ Passive voice & Past Simple

  ➔ The sentence uses the past simple tense to state a completed action or state of being. 'Was' is the auxiliary verb forming the passive voice, indicating that the subject ('this') *received* the action of being 'inevitable' rather than *performing* it.

• Say that I am in a better place

  ➔ Subjunctive mood (implied)

  ➔ While not explicitly marked, the sentence carries a sense of wishing or suggesting a belief that isn't necessarily factual. The phrase 'in a better place' is a euphemism for death, and the 'say that' construction implies a request to present this as a comforting narrative, even if it's not objectively true. This leans towards the subjunctive mood.
