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