MimosA - Mother lyrics
rate meMother warned me, she told me<br />
Life isn't what we dream of<br />
So don't sleep boy, stay restless<br />
Don't put your hopes in this world<br />
'Cause your love won't last, you'll be haunted by fear<br />
Oh my God what have I told my son?<br />
<br />
Mother I can't say quickly<br />
What should be penned so eloquently<br />
But I will try this one time<br />
'Cause something inside's not right<br />
With the world outside, with who hate who more<br />
So I'll take my lonely pen and write<br />
<br />
I'll write smiles in the sun, I'll applaud my old heroes<br />
I will sing at graves, I will sing so sweet Mother<br />
I will trust in dreams, I won't bend to the seasons<br />
This is how I'd like to see everything in the world<br />
Everything in the world<br />
But there's one thing I don't want<br />
<br />
Mother I'm stumped, I've lost that feeling<br />
So terribly sick that I'm reeling<br />
Why don't they care, why don't they fight fair?<br />
Why are they unhappy inside?<br />
<br />
Mother I'm stumped, I've lost that feeling<br />
So terribly sick that I'm reeling<br />
Why don't they care, nobody cares<br />
Why are they unhappy inside?<br />
<br />
'Cause their homes have died<br />
Baby try and hold on<br />
Oh my God what have I told my son?<br />
Oh my God what have I told my son?<br />
Oh my God what have I told my son?<br />
<br />
Mother, Mother<br />
I'm so sorry<br />
God knows I tried<br />
But all the emptiness inside<br />
It's tearing me up, I'm alive<br />
<br />
Now you have to listen<br />
You have to help me<br />
I found the reason<br />
For all the emptiness inside<br />
It's tearing me up, I'm alive<br />
<br />
'Cause they won't listen<br />
They won't shut up<br />
They keep talking<br />
Making noise in my mind<br />
I just wanna come home, Mother<br />
<br />
Mother<br />
Cover me<br />
Cover me<br />
I'm comin' in<br />
Cover me<br />
Cover me<br />
'Cause I won't wish<br />
I won't wish this on anyone
