Mother
Social reposeBet you wish she was a daughter no bother
Pink stains on the counter out there
Clean me up with some bleach
Mother, mother
Place me under your cover and discover
Away from the others, others
Painting over my marks
And I, in my dream last night
Wasn't looking for a fight
Clean me up, day and night
(Goodnight)
And the drugs they kick in
To know you're in this station
Let the years just sink in
Fade away, day and night
Goodbye
Mother, mother
Bet you wish she was a daughter and a brother
Pink stains on the counter out there
Clean me up with some bleach
Mother, mother
Place me under your cover and discover
Away from the others, others
Painting over my marks
Temptations overwhelm me
My motivations hyperdrive
I destroy most things I touch
Doesn't mean I didn't love you that much
So you clutched my filthy hand
When you said goodnight, said goodnight
Goodbye!
Mother, mother
Looking more like my father, father
Trying to recover, recover
Blur me out what you can
Mother, mother
Wish you didn't even bother, bother
I have nothing left to offer, offer
I can't stand the shame
Mother, mother
Bet you wish she was a daughter and a brother
Pink stains on the counter out there
Clean me up with some bleach
Mother, mother
Place me under your cover and discover
Away from the others, others
Paint over my marks
Helpless
Tainted
A blankness
I leave them untouched
