'Mother's ruin'
|
She said to herself
|
'I'm just screwing my own mental health'
|
But Fridays and Saturdays
|
She walks down those alleyways
|
A latter day lady of the lamp
|
|
How you doing?
|
You ain't from round here
|
Won't you come in?
|
I'm really not scared-
|
'Cause Fridays and Saturdays
|
I still do it anyways
|
And anything is better than out there
|
|
Now don't wake me up again
|
Don't let me feel anything
|
But when you go
|
Let me dream that I go with you
|
So I won't cry myself dry anymore
|
|
Mothers ruin
|
Their own little girls
|
Keep them dreaming
|
There's more to this world
|
But turn her the other way
|
And every day's Father's Day
|
He stays until there's nothing left to say
|
|
But don't wake me up again
|
Don't let me feel anything
|
But when you go
|
Let me dream that I go with you
|
'Cause I can't take it 'round here anymore
|
|
Now don't wake me up again
|
Don't let me feel anything
|
But when you go
|
Let me dream that I go with you
|
So you won't make my heart ache anymore
|
Leave the light on and don't shut the door
|
