I haven't laughed for very long

Treading in cold waters

It's time I go, time I leave

Time to be me, be free

You hold us dear with tiresome tactics

A leash on my neck with tiresome consequences

You'll cry

I'll cry

Just let me say bye

I love you mom

Be proud of me?

Maybe someday you'll understand

Why I leave

You'll blame yourself

Even if you blame me now

You'll blame yourself

Be happy mom

Remember the days I sang

'You are my sunshine?'

Nothings changed, just age.

Love you.
