Mama Always Said
Isn't this the end you had in mind
It's climbing down your walls
Mama always said you'd be the kind
To see how hard it falls
Mama always told me what to do
Mama always told me what to do
In the dark I see what you and I are made of
Would you like to be right outside my window
Were the fires higher in your dreams
Or is this about right
I can see you burning through the beams
They're holding down the light
Mama always said the time would come
Mama always said the time would come
In the dark I see what you and I are made of
Would you like to be right outside my window
Take a look at me and see, see I'm going nowhere
Would you like to be somewhere else entirely
Well I'll try to get the message if it's written down in words
But I don't know if she will listen, I don't know if she has heard
I have seen her in the moonlight casting shadows on my mind
Still I'll try, oh I'll try
In the dark I see what you and I are made of
Would you like to be right outside my window
Take a look at me and see, see I'm going nowhere
Would you like to be somewhere else entirely
It's climbing down your walls
Mama always said you'd be the kind
To see how hard it falls
Mama always told me what to do
Mama always told me what to do
In the dark I see what you and I are made of
Would you like to be right outside my window
Were the fires higher in your dreams
Or is this about right
I can see you burning through the beams
They're holding down the light
Mama always said the time would come
Mama always said the time would come
In the dark I see what you and I are made of
Would you like to be right outside my window
Take a look at me and see, see I'm going nowhere
Would you like to be somewhere else entirely
Well I'll try to get the message if it's written down in words
But I don't know if she will listen, I don't know if she has heard
I have seen her in the moonlight casting shadows on my mind
Still I'll try, oh I'll try
In the dark I see what you and I are made of
Would you like to be right outside my window
Take a look at me and see, see I'm going nowhere
Would you like to be somewhere else entirely
