TRUTH: YOU BECOME YOUR MOTHER, OR YOU DON'T.
17 years old and her mother lies
another shot of whiskey
to hide her demise
the pills aren't strong enough
he lover see's another
for a rendez-vous and midnight fu*k
swallowing another pill of truth
a newly single mother
without a father in sight
thinking this sort of thing only happens
after they've had a fight.
Daughter doesn't know
so she rebels the way the cool kids do
another shot of whiskey
as she sings the blues
on the midnight train
to numb her pain
a dose of her mother's medicine
and she think's she won't end up
to be the same.
That's alright,
another dose of her mother's medicine
and she'll sleep through the night.
