[D#m C# C]
[Verse]
D#m C# B
She said that we don’t have to hug
D#m C# B
She said that I don’t have to love
D#m C# B
And when she took my wrist and pushed me 'gainst the wall
D#m C# B
The look on her face made me afraid of who she was
[Pre-chorus]
D#m C# B
And it's all okay 'cause it's all in my head
D#m C# B
And it's all my fault that my tears have stained the bed
[Chorus]
D#m
When I think of my mother
C# B
I think of a guard holding me captive but not in her arms
D#m C#
When I think of her voice I think of a siren
B
Constantly sounding after pulling the alarm
D#m C#
I'm anxious and broken because of her words
B
I’ll never get back the time I spent putting her first
D#m C#
When I think of my mother I'm often in tears
B
'Cause she is the reason for all of my fears
D#m C# B
Mommy
D#m C# B
Why don’t you want me
[Verse]
D#m C# B
How does it feel to be alone
D#m C# B
To call and to text once every year to ask me home
D#m C# B
Do you ever hurt to cry or care I'm not around
D#m C# B
Do you not regret the little contact we have now
[Pre-chorus]
D#m C# B
And it's all okay 'cause it's all in my head
D#m C# B
And it's all my fault that my tears have stained the bed
[Chorus]
D#m
When I think of my mother
C# B
I think of a guard holding me captive but not in her arms
D#m C#
When I think of her voice I think of a siren
B
Constantly sounding after pulling the alarm
D#m C#
I'm anxious and broken because of her words
B
I’ll never get back the time I spent putting her first
D#m C#
When I think of my mother I'm often in tears
B
'Cause she is the reason for all of my fears
D#m C# B
Mommy
D#m C# B
Why don’t you want me
D#m C# B
Why don't you want me
D#m C# B
Mommy
[Em]
