lyrics

Mama, I know
Boys don't cry wolf
Or am I just a special case?
Mama, tell me
Am I dreaming?
But everything is out of place

It's my fault I couldn't say goodbye
To hazelnut and apple pie
Made fresh on Sunday mornings
I can't control the weather or the time
'Cause if I could I'd turn back nine
Years before when this town was boring.
I still hear you singing lullabies when I'm asleep

Mama, I guess
I need my rest
This house is empty, filled with ghosts
Mama, tell me
Am I dreaming?
Of all things, I miss you the most

It's my fault I couldn't say goodbye
'Cause I was caught up in these lies
I made to keep me safe and warm
I can hear the fire in the cracks
of my head, I still watch my back
'cause I'm never safe from harm.
I still hear you singing lullabies

And nobody tells me what to do
I'm not grounded but I'd choose to be
If it means that you're alive
I do what I want when I want
But I'd rather you yell than haunt
Me, who knows if I'll survive

It's my fault I couldn't say goodbye
To chestnut hair and family ties
Are nothing if they're untangled way too soon
I can hardly tell what's on the right or left
But I could tell you Jesus wept
So maybe I could weep now too.
I still hear you singing lullabies
