Mama

I'm coming home again
But I'm not here to stay
Stop tryin' to protect me from
The shadows of the day

I know you got it wrong
But we all make mistakes
I need you to be strong
It's not your fault, you're not to blame

And I said, Mama
Ain't like it used to be
When I would hold your hand
And wobble on your knees

Oh Mama
I'm not that little child
Don't have to be afraid
To let me go and live my life

Your demons took control
They stole the love I craved
But there's no way to change
These shadows cast from yesterday

Stop tryin' to repair
The years that went to waste
Although it's good advice
It's much too little, much to late

And I said, Mama
Ain't like it used to be
When I would hold your hand
And wobble on your knees

Oh Mama
I'm not that little child
Don't have to be afraid
To let me go and live my life

I don't see history repeatin', I
Won't be makin' the same sacrifice
I've spent so long hopin'
And now that you've opened your eyes
I'm fine
I'm fine
I'm, I'm fine
