You had me up all night
I knew this would happen
Hard to believe
Time hasn't fixed this problem
A solid 8 years, almost to the day
Thought by now, some of it would fade
I don't wanna take over
I don't want you to move to Florida
Want ya to tell me your life story
Wish I could do everything for you
Hold on a lil longer, I'll have stories for you
At 12 I buckled
I'll never be a mother
I'll never see my eyes
Staring back at me
At 21 I told ya
“You’re not my Mama”
But after Betty died
I was calling, crying, I'm sorry
Well, nothing's ever perfect
Everything gets so fucked
And Mama you're the darnedest
Smartest creature on the planet
Hell, I just want to slow down
But just getting started
Did I waste my whole life
Picking up the pieces
Watching it all simmer
As I just sit here
I want it to be perfect
Can't we take a step back
Mama you're the darndest
Mama you're the sweetest
Mama your the bestest
Cindrella you got this

Forever holding on to our brains and our bones
The way we hold on to our beliefs and opinions
Never change, never change
Til someone makes us
Born by mistake
Or, with all the answers
Never change, never change
No not for no one
Never change, never change
Till there's a reason
Try to explain it for those late to the party
But they hold their ears, ain't even trying to listen
Try to behave for those watching closely
But they looking away now, they looking away
All you can do is whisper
All you can do is whistle
All you can do is paint them
Into the corner
Grab your head, grab your heart
Hold on to something, hold on real tight
Do your best, this ride is fast
Do yourself a favor
Grab your head, don’t you lose it
Hold your heart, don’t overdo it
We never die, we don’t know why
We never die, we are all stardust
Yeah
