Mom I I let you down And you say the days are happy Why is the power off, and I'm up? And mom, I know not around But don't you place the on me As you pour yourself another and
I we are who we are shining in the dark night, I drive on Maybe we took too far
I went in Never thinking about who what I hurt, in what verse My mom got it the worst The brunt of it, but as as we are Did I it too far? Cleaning out my and all them other songs But regardless I don't you 'cause ma! You're still to me, cause you're my mom Though far be it for you to be calling, my house was Storm and both of us put together Can form an atomic bomb equivalent to chemical And we can drag this on and on But, to disagree That gift from me up under the Christmas tree don't shit to me You're kicking me out? It's fifteen degrees and it's Christmas Eve (little just leave) Ma, let me my fucking coat, anything to have each other's goats Why we always at each others Especially when dad, he fucked us both We're in the same fucking boat, you'd think that make us close (nope) Further away that drove us, but together shine, a car full of belongings got a ways to go, back to grandma's house it's straight up the road And I was the man of the house, the oldest, so my carried the weight of the load Then Nate got taken away by the state at eight old, and That's when I realized you were sick and it wasn't or changeable And to this day we remained and I hate it though, but
I we are who we are Headlights shining in the dark night I on Maybe we this too far
'Cause to this day we remain estranged and I hate it 'Cause you ain't even get to witness grand baby's growth But I'm sorry mama for 'Cleaning Out My Closet', at the time I was Rightfully so, never meant that far to take it though, 'cause Now I it's not your fault, and I'm not making jokes That song I no longer play at and I cringe every time it's on the radio And I think of Nathan being in a home And all the you fed us And how I wanted you to taste your own, but Now the medications over and your mental states deteriorating slow And I'm way too old to cry, shit's painful though But ma, I forgive you, so Nathan yo All you did, all you said, you did your best to us both Foster care, cross you bare, few may be as heavy as yours But I love you Debbie Mathers, oh what a tangled web we have, One thing I never asked was the fuck my deadbeat dad was Fuck it I guess he had trouble up with every address But I'd flipped every mattress, every rock and desert cactus Own a collection of and followed my kids to the edge of the atlas Someone ever moved them me? That you could bet your ass's If I had to come down the chimney dressed as Santa, kidnap And one has met their grandma Once you up in our drive one night as we were leaving to get some hamburgers Me, her and Nate, we you, hugged you And as you left I had this overwhelming sadness over me As we off to go our separate paths, and I saw your as I looked back And I'm mad I didn't get the chance to thank you for my Mom and my Dad So Mom, accept this as a tribute I wrote this on the jet I guess I had to get this off my chest, I I get the chance to lay it before I'm dead The stewardess said to fasten my seat belt, I guess crashing So if I'm not dreaming, I hope you get this message that I'll always love you afar you're my mama
I we are who we are shining in the dark night I drive on Maybe we took too far
I a new life One without a So I'm coming home Well no matter what the And if the goes down Or if the crew wake me up Just know I was alright And I was not to die
Oh if there's songs to sing My children carry me know that I'm alright I was not to die Because I put my faith in my new So I never say goodbye cruel Just know that I'm I am not to die
I we are who we are Headlights shining in the dark night I on Maybe we took this too far, I a new life
