This is only a small part of what I have to deal with.
In the eyes of others,
You act perfect.
When the eyes close at night
I smell the alcohol
On your rank breath.
Mother, Mother
I loathe the things
That you say,
That I'm never good enough.
Why can't I be better?
Why can't I be what you want?
Mother, Mother
I do the best I can.
Mother, Mother
I'm not you.
Mother, Mother
You are breaking my Heart.
I just want to be happy...
MOTHER, MOTHER
I just want to be Me.
MOTHER, MOTHER
LET ME BE ME.
