Dead Mom

Hey mom, dead mom

I need a little help here

I'm prob'ly talking to myself here

But dead mom, I gotta ask

Are you really in the ground?

'Cause I feel you all around me

Are you here, dead mom?

Dead mom

Dead mom

I'm tired of trying to iron out my creases

I'm a bunch of broken pieces

It was you who made me whole

Every day dad's staring at me

Like all, "Hurry up, get happy

Move along

Forget about your mom"

'Cause daddy's in denial

Daddy doesn't wanna feel

He wants me to smile

And clap like a performing seal

Ignored it for a while

But daddy's lost his mind for real

You won't believe the mess that we've become

You're my home

My destination

And I'm your clone

Your strange creation

You held my hand

And life came easy

Now jokes don't land

And no one sees me

Nothing seems to fit

Mamma is this it?

Are you receiving?

I want something to believe in or I'm done

Take me where my soul can run or I'll be in my bedroom

Wake me when I'm twenty one

Daddy's moving forward

Daddy didn't lose a mom

Mama won't you send a sign?

I'm running out of hope and time

A plague of mice, a lightning strike

Or drop a nuclear bomb

No more playing daddy's game

I'll go insane if things don't change

Whatever it takes to make him say your name

Dead mom
