I always say "i love you" and you never seem to hear it
Are you ignoring me or pretending that im not even here?
The evidence that i live in this house are the tear soaked paintings that hang on the wall
Mother, oh mother why?
I dont want to be like you
Mother, oh mother why?
I dont want to be like you
Ill hide away my childish things if that will you not yell at me
Since im old now can we at least have a civil converstion?
I guess not
Take away the things i love and maybe you'll be happy
But is this way of a normal regular family?
Mother, oh mother why?
I dont want to be like you
Mother, oh mother why?
I dont want to be like you
Ill slit my wrist for you
Ill think about you when i tie the noose
Would you even cry about if it were to go on the news?
Mother, oh mother why?
I dont want to be like you
Mother, oh mother why?
I dont want to be like you
Mother, mother why?
I dont want to be like you
Mother, oh mother why?
Im guess im just like you
My teachers say still a kid alittle longer
But when i ask you if i may you just hand me a resume
I cant get past all of the suicidal thoughts in my head
Take away the things i love
What have i ever done to deserve this?
You tell me to grow up faster
But is it even fucking worth it
You look so miserable and i dont want to be like you
Mother, oh mother
Please dont let me be you
