Mother, why don't you hear me Won't you put that down and love me again Mother why don't you see now All that I did wrong I'm not trying to end Can't you feel the desperation That lies behind these sorry eyes It's gone too far for me to escpae this wrong I'm so ashamed I don't need it, mother don't you know I could leave it, mother don't let go I still feel it, mother won't you stay I don't need to tell you I was wrong Now I'm back to where I belong So tonight don't let me go So I got lost in an immoral game Destroyed my life, just threw it away Now I ask you help me with my mind Oh, won't you come help me win this time We could fight this desperation That's slowly turning me off life No more livin' lost, alone and afraid No more this grey disguise I don't need it, mother don't you know I could leave it, mother don't let go I still feel it, mother won't you stay I don't need to tell you I was wrong Now I'm back to where I belong So tonight don't let me go
