| I’m always wondering if I’m where I’m supposed to be |
| Cause everything’s moving and I’m barely on my feet |
| Endlessly unsure of how to arrange this mess |
| And everyone seems to do so much more with less |
| Cause I’m drinking too much and I’m all out of touch |
| Stumbling around in the dark |
| And I need to know how I can figure this out |
| Cause it feels like I’m falling apart |
| So tell me mother, when will I know what to do? |
| If I can’t keep up, and I don’t wanna get up this time |
| Oh my mother, when will I know how to lose? |
| How do I keep up when I don’t wanna get up this time |
| Tell me it’s alright |
| I always thought things would just fall in place |
| Cause when I was 16 nothing seemed too far away |
| And I know you see so much of yourself in me |
| So when did you become the woman you’d hoped you’d be |
| Cause I’m drinking too much and I’m all out of touch |
| And I’m stumbling around in the dark |
| And I need to know how I can figure this out |
| Cause it feels like I’m falling apart |
| So tell me mother, when will I know what to do? |
| If I can’t keep up and I don’t wanna get up this time |
| Oh my mother, when will I know how to lose? |
| How do I keep up, when I don’t wanna get up this time |
| Tell me mother, when will I know what to do? |
| If I can’t keep up and I don’t wanna get up this time |
| Oh my mother, when will I know how to lose? |
| How do I keep up, when I don’t wanna get up this time |
| Tell me it’s alright |
