Your Mother's Name

Susannah Joffe

    Continues after the ad

    I guess I lied when I say
    I'd take your mother's name
    She was so mean, why was I the same?
    (Yeah)

    Her hands were smaller
    Yours were too big for just a girl
    But they held me so good, so pretty
    With your cracked polish and dirt

    Unrequited love is part of being young
    But I'm tired of sleeping by a warm gun
    That's why your mother cries
    That's why she's so fucking mean all the time
    Unrequited love is part of being young

    Being young, being young

    Continues after the ad

    Put my headphones in, listening
    To thе same sad shit
    The stranger across has your samе gold cross
    But it doesn't suit him
    Like your mother's did
    Even though you're an atheist
    Now I am too 'cause there's no way a God would let me lose you

    Unrequited love is part of being young
    But I'm tired of sleeping by a warm gun
    That's why your mother cries
    That's why she's so fucking mean all the time
    Unrequited love is part of being young

    Being young, being young

    It sits like a rock in my liver
    And I keep getting sicker
    But it can't be undone
    It's part of being young
    Sleep around, call me a winner
    But my love's getting thinner
    And I'm coming undone
    It's part of being young

    Being young, being young
    Being young, being young
