Tell Mama

(Album: Time Machine - 2023)

(Mama, oh, please don't cry)

The world is here for you to take
Rocket man, kiss the sky and make it rain
Don't wonder why, don't waste your time
Just wipe your tears away
Be the one, be a hero

The world was never hard to break
Just be the greatest, be the bravest, stay awake
Don't wonder why, don't waste your time
Just throw your fears away
Until the day you're broken

Tell mama, "I'm coming back home
Yeah, I quit rock 'n' roll
Gave my heart and my soul," mmhmm
Bye-bye to the beautiful life
Oh, those dreams were not mine
Mama, oh, please don't cry
(Mama, oh, please don't cry)

The pressure got heavy on my chest
I took a plane, took a pill to ease my pain
And I got too high, I got too wild, and scared them all away
Is there love for the broken?

Tell mama, I'm coming back home
Yeah, I quit rock 'n' roll
Gave my heart and my soul
Bye-bye to the beautiful life
Oh, those dreams were not mine
Mama, oh, please don't cry
(Mama, oh, please don't cry)
(Mama, oh, please don't cry)
(Mama, oh, please don't cry)

Bye-bye to the beautiful places
And beautiful faces
There is no space for all
Bye-bye to the Hollywood angels
And good luck to the strangers
There is no space for all

Tell mama, "I'm coming back home
Yeah, I quit rock 'n' roll
Gave my heart and my soul," mmhmm
Bye-bye to the beautiful life
Oh, those dreams were not mine
Mama, oh, please don't cry
(Mama, oh, please don't cry)
(I promise that I'll be fine)
(Mama, oh, please don't cry)
(Mama, oh, please don't cry)
(Mama, oh, please don't cry)
(Mama, oh, please don't cry)
(Mama, oh, please don't cry)
