Oh Mother
There's a hole in my side
And comfort is only a need of mine
And I get lonely
At any chance that I might get

Your arms can't hold what's going on inside
And you'll see just what you want me to be
And I'll be fine just as soon as I find

If the words I say
Throw and sway
I've seen myself mixed up
I've never had this much
Your heart always beats
You will always sleep
And you would never know

You say you've won a part of life
I say, you've been bitten by the cold
And you'll swing at any chance that you might get

(chorus)
If the words I say
Throw and sway
I've seen myself mixed up
I've never had this much
The words I say
Seem maybe tame
I've seen my mixups
Never really come to much

(chorus) x 2
And maybe I should find a place to hide
And maybe I'll burn down the place I hide
And I get lonely at any chance that I might get
And I'll get lonely just as soon as I find
Some hope
Some truth
And never be bought again
And you would never know
And you need never know

(chorus)
