my mother's daughter

It's in my head, it's the reason, some days
I can't make my bed (bed, bed, bed) or leave my bed (bed, bed, bed)
It's a silhouette ('houette, 'houette) of my every fear
And every small regret (small regret) that I've ever had

Obsessing over all the broken pieces that I've ever known
Then, I think of all the reasons I don't deserve him and I won't
Then, I chase an empty feeling and I cover it in smoke
Don't know what it is I'm needing, must be something in my bones

'Cause I'm my mother's daughter and she knows just as much
As what her mother taught her about what the world wants
Yeah, I'm my mother's daughter, I think it's in my blood
To feel like I'm underwater and like I'll never be enough

Doomed with the blues, she said
"I hope I didn't pass it down to you" (down to you)
But it hits me too (hits me too)
When I'm in my room (in my room)
And when I'm out, but I'll just blame the moon, easier to do

When I'm obsessing over all the broken pieces that I've ever known
When I think of all the reasons I don't deserve him and I won't
When I chase an empty feeling and I cover it in smoke
Don't know what it is I'm needing, it must be something in my bones, cause

'Cause I'm my mother's daughter and she knows just as much
As what her mother taught her, about what the world wants
Yeah, I'm my mother's daughter, I think it's in my blood
To feel like I'm underwater and like I'll never be enough

(Never be enough) never be enough
Oh

I've spent 10 thousand hours
In my own head, 10 thousand hours
In the deep end, will it ever
Go away? (Go away)
Go away

Hm
Hm
Will it ever go away?
Go away
