Especially Your Mother

You walked around me to see what’s on the other side, what’s behind
You walked beside me and before you walked out the door, I adored you
Shame on you for needing some sort of apathy
Shame on you for wanting more, parading your fancy grace
You told me one thing that I took straight to my heart, that’s the start
If things were different, then I wouldn’t have the heart to tell you
Shame on you for sharing some sort of aimless grief
Shame on you for being so kind to everyone, especially your mother
And how you tried to be everything to me, but we both knew that it would
Never work out in the end. Oh well…
