Mother

(album: THE SCIENCE OF LETTING GO - 2017)

So tell me why
Why you're still here and I'm still here
And we're still taking time
Out of our busy lives just to fuck around
Spewing words we both could live without

And tell me why
Why you're still here and I'm still here
And we're still spending nights
Wasting half our lives like fucking clowns
Running around this god forsaken town

I think I'll pass on the summer
Don't wanna fall for it this time
I'm drowning, drowning, drowning down
And yeah I might miss your mother
I fantasize about her sometimes
Drowning, drowning, drowning down
There's nothing left to do
But let the waves crash over you

So tell me why
If I'm as bad as all those things you call me every night
You want me in your life just to drag around
I'm never living up to what you thought you found
Ooh

I think I'll pass on the summer
Ain't gonna work for me this time
I'm drowning, drowning, drowning down
And yeah I might miss your mother
But she knows what's the best
Drowning, drowning, drowning down
There's nothing left to do
But let the waves crash over you

So tell me why
Why you're still here and I'm still here
And we're still taking time
Out of our busy lives just to fuck around
Spewing words we both could live without

I think I'll pass on the summer
Don't wanna fall for it this time
I'm drowning, drowning, drowning down
And yeah I might miss your mother
She can keep any dope she finds
Drowning, drowning, drowning down
There's nothing left to do
But let the waves crash over you
