about

TALK ABOUT CRINGE. ah but i was at the beginning of my artist journey. plus i like the round at the end. the thing is, i had zero recording experience, zero band experience, and I had NOOO idea of what my sound was outside of just me and my instrument, so letting someone hire musicians for my first album to throw on my songs came out as expected; a strange free for all. anyway this song is about shame

lyrics

Where Is Your Mother?

Where is your mother? She said that she’d be here today So when they called you names She would send them away Lover, Lover, Where have you gone? I saw you last night but now I’m alone Shameful, Shameful, hold out your hands Tell me the Truth or hide it as best as you can (Chorus): And when you know this time your mother

Can’t get you thru this one Cant tell your shame to leave you alone

That’s when you know you need to destroy it

Pull out your weapons

And lay them on the ground

“The weather is nice outside today

Why don’t you come with me, Let’s go out and play I won’t tell your mommy, I won’t tell your dad

I promise after this we’ll never be ever be bad again”

But I know they will catch me I know that they’ll see

My guilt will show up on my chattering teeth

They’ll say, “Why are you smiling with that silly old glare?”

I will tell them I’ve nothing to hide anywhere But I’m lying, I’m lying, I’m lying (Chorus) I will never forget all the trips that we made to the city my dear, to the city my dear I would wear you for all of time, but there’re some things I must leave behind
