For everyone I loved and every road I've known
For all the trash I’ve won, I celebrate alone
Sit up straight, stupid, bite your tongue
The best that I am is said and done

Screams and whispers
Tell her I no longer hear her!

Mother Mary, she don't talk to me
Mother Mary, she don't talk to me
Give her my apologies
And tell her not to cry
Mother Maria

I holler like a king trying to keep his throne
But chewing on a stone is the only thing I own
Drugs and lovers
Nothing left under the covers

Mother Mary, she don't talk to me
Mother Mary, she don't talk to me
Give her my apologies
And tell her not to cry
Mother Maria

Anything you want, anything you need
I give it all I’ve got, your attention please!
You never want it me, you never wanted me!

Sleep with me
Just for the bitter part
About me

Living's hardly
Living's hardly
Tell her I no longer want it

Mother Mary, she don't talk to me
Mother Mary, she don't talk to me
Give her my apologies
It's Mother Mary, she don't talk to me!

I still don't hear her voice
I still can't hear her voice
I don't deserve her
So tell her not to cry
Tell her not to cry
Tell her not to cry!
Mother Maria
