“You lay strapped to a hospital bed
I want you to come home and smile again
Before the chemicals and before all of this
Wasting all my time and I’m so glad you did
I’m still sitting by the telephone just to hear you say”
“I’m so sorry I’m just scared to live another day alone inside of my head
The pills do nothing just like my friends my long sleeve shirts are still
stuck to my skin.”
Mothers shouldn’t have to be scared for their sons
Living out of a bag just to stay by their side
Talking to a god you haven’t talked to in years
Just looking for answers to questions that you fear
“Wash away all the tears on my face
Tell me this isn’t real tell me it’s all a dream
We’re bending and we’re breaking from the medicine your taking
Can’t look at my husband because he’s contemplating leaving
I listen to your songs and I still feel fucking empty
Re-tracing all my steps could you put the blame on me?
Could you put the blame on me?”
No.
