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)
