You always seem to yell at me
it's how you've always seemed to be
before you start to think I'm wrong
listen to the rest of my song
we get mad and scream and talk
sometimes i take an early walk
most of the time, what you do
is go and think I'm blaming you
you walk away alone
talking to yourself in your "mad as hell" tone
you either talk about someone to yourself
or talk about someone to somebody else
you always think I'm mad at you
but I've got to tell you it just isn't true
you always get the wrong thought
about what i think and what i do not
you twist what i say so it makes sense to you
and you seem to believe i think shit about you
i may walk away mad but you've got to keep in mind
i know your my mother, a one of a kind
sometimes i don't believe it or seem to forget
but i was your daughter from before we met
literally
if you hadn't left
you would have heard
what i wanted to tell you
every last word
i wanted to say i understood and i knew
i wanted to say I'm sorry and thank you
i could say it to your face and i probably should
but i wanted you to know that i understood
