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