Tell My Mama

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I've been thinkin' that life's too short

So many friends got their life cut short

Now I'm standing here doing lines in the bathroom

I hate myself, but I felt like I had to

(Ooh) I've been hiding pain that's underneath

And I've been up so long, I'm scared to sleep

And if something were to happen to me

Can someone please

Tell my mama that I love her

And I'm sorry for the pain, sorry for the pain

That I caused her when I was younger

All the stress I put her under

Tell my mama that I love her

And I'm sorry for the pain, sorry for the pain

That I caused her when I was younger

All the stress I put her under

And everybody says that I've been manic

I think they might be right, but I still manage

Lately, I've been so annoyed

'Cause they think that I'm just paranoid

(Ooh) I've been hiding pain that's underneath

And I've been up so long, I'm scared to sleep

And if something were to happen to me

Can someone please

Tell my mama that I love her

And I'm sorry for the pain, sorry for the pain

That I caused her when I was younger

All the stress I put her under

Tell my mama that I love her

And I'm sorry for the pain, sorry for the pain

That I caused her when I was younger

All the stress I put her under

I've been thinkin' that life's too short

So many friends got their life cut short

And I remember when I said I'd never be like this

Be like this

Tell my mama that I love her

And I'm sorry for the pain, sorry for the pain

That I caused her when I was younger

All the stress I put her under

Tell my mama that I love her (yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah)

And I'm sorry for the pain, sorry for the pain

That I caused her when I was younger

All the stress I put her under
