• I spent my nights listenin' to you cry.
    I spent my nights wishin' he would just die!
    I spent my days wishin' we would leave.
    I spent my days cryin' on your sleeve.

    A mother like you be with a man like him.
    You never knew what he did to us.
    You never knew what a man he was.
    You never knew what he could do.
    If we left him with you.

    You were not a true mother.
    I mean, we are your son and daughter.
    Aren't you meant to be there for us?
    Or are we such a big enough fuss?

    I wish I could understand.
    Though you're band.
    I try and try to overlook what you have done.
    Though now it can never be undone.

    I have lost everything in you.
    You never thought what I said was true.
    Go ahead and believe anything you want.
    I bet he thought you were a stupid c**t.

    You are my mother. You were my mother.
    You have me wonder...
    Explain what you thought when I was hurtin'.
    Explain what you thought when I was cryin'.
    Explain what you thought when I was beggin'.
    What were you thinkin'?

    I sit here now, almost six years later.
    Not seein' you is maybe better.
    I have plenty of time to think.
    Since time went by like a blink.

    You will always be my mother.
    But, why bother?
