Life Lessons from Ashlee Simpson Songs

0

There are many things I miss about my pre-teen years, but I miss blasting Ashlee Simpson’s albums on my CD player while dancing alone in my room (Perhaps to the song, Dancing Alone) the most. Although I may be somewhat ashamed to admit it, Ashlee Simpson’s debut solo cd, Autobiography taught my angst-y pre-teen self more about boys than anyone else. Therefore I am forever grateful for songs like Autobiography- that I immediately resonated with because I also, had stains on my t-shirt, and was the biggest flirt. (Ok maybe I was eleven and probably not the biggest flirt.) But regardless, I looked up to her as a fashion icon, because no one else rocked an intertwined jelly bracelet or graphic tee like her.. and also because she was a super relatable teen who dated gross boys (aka Ryan Cabrera) and celebrated her birthday at Medieval Times. Completely inspired by the burned out pop starlet, I’ve compiled a list of universal life lessons we can take from Ms. Simpson, enjoy!

It’s OK to be Tardy with Bad Hair

“And I’m always, always, always late
And my hair’s a mess
even when its straight”

This lyric from the song, “Better Off.” Is the what I like to call, some of the most pure forms of ‘real talks.’  I mean how many times do you say you’re going to be ready by 8pm but then end up re-watching old episodes of Frasier? Just me? Alright.  Ashlee keeps it the realest and admits she’ll never be that perfect girl with perfect hair.
 

 

Past Lives are 4 Real

“Everywhere you go is everywhere I’ve been
You finish all my sentences before they begin
And I know that look in your eyes
It’s like I’ve seen you before about a million times

In another life, in another life maybe
In another life you must have been mine”

Ashlee describes the fluffiest loving feeling one feels when they are heelz ova head in “In Another Life.” She also teaches us that maybe your otherworldly connection is so powerful that it may be due to a connection in a past life. #ashleesimplogic
 

 

It’s Probably Not a Good Idea to Date Ryan Cabrera

“I am moody, messy
I get restless and senseless
How you never seem to care”

We’ve all dated that gross dude who you put up with due to the slight hope he’d change, and here Ashlee literally says that in my fave, “Pieces of Me.” Now, if only we could take our own advice… In this case, that boy happened to be the casanova known as, Ryan Cabrera.
 

 

It’s Not OK To Live in Someone Else’s Shadow

“I’m living in a new day
I’m living it for me
And now that I am wide awake
Then I can finally see
So don’t feel sorry for me
Don’t feel sorry, don’t feel sorry for me
Don’t feel sorry, don’t feel sorry for me”

So, she may or may not have been indirectly speaking about living in the shadow of her super successful sister, Jessica  but here she makes it clear she does not want others to pity her.  I think everyone can agree being constantly compared or called second best sux. You, go girl! Make a name for yourself without anyone’s help!!! Wait a second…

Now, go blast Pieces of Me on your CD player and take it back to good ole’ 2004!
