Sons & Mothers

Don't have the strength tonight
I got sick one too many times
I'll wear a mask, and I'll smile
Until you see my bloodshot eyes
You said if home is where the hate is,
Then rest your head on me
You cleaned me up, you carried me
So how can I repay this generosity?
You said crawl your way out of the sea
Here I am with my head in the gutter
And all I am is the son of my mother
And I say, what's left to lose?
Here I am with my head in the gutter
And all I am is the son of my mother
And I say, what's left to lose... except for you?
Who wants it all?
Who wants it all?
That's just me singing in the rain
My words are tapping on your windowpane
I hope that they don't wake you up
These days you're dreaming for the both of us
Home is where the hate is
Rest your head on me
You cleaned me up, you carried me
How can I repay this generosity?
You said crawl your way out of the sea
Here I am with my head in the gutter
And all I am is the son of my mother
And I say, what's left to lose?
Here I am with my head in the gutter
And all I am is the son of my mother
And I say, what's left to lose... except for you?
