Exploring the depths of mental illness and its impact on perception, this song paints a vivid picture of an individual's struggle with their inner demons. The lyrics depict a haunting narrative of confusion, violence, and regret. The repeated phrase "In the summer silence, I was getting violent" suggests an internal battle that intensifies in solitude. The protagonist appears to be wrestling with guilt over past actions, possibly hinting at a crime committed—"took my gun and made him go to Neverland". The song also touches on the theme of denial and self-deception as shown in the lines "Was that your voice or was that me?" Overall, it's a poignant exploration of mental turmoil and its consequences. #MentalHealth #InnerDemons
Mama's Gun
Lyrics
In the summer, took my gun
And made him go to Neverland
He was something, my old husband
He had all you'd ever want
Did you say something? What'd you say?
Was that your voice or was that me?
Little voices buzzing poison
Backward noise from everything
Dr. Swango says I'm psycho
Says they all from Neverland
They'll never ever let me be
Was that your voice or was that me?
Dirty Dustin, said he saw him
Playing ball with Dizzy Jim
Dizzy Jim had never spoken
Whispered back, "You murdered him"
My heart strings broke and it was me
I pull, they stretch infinitely
In the summer silence, I was getting violent
In the summer silence, I was doing nothing
In the summer silence, I was getting violent
In the summer silence, I was doing nothing
Play with me, my love, in the summer sun
I'll be waiting there, your favorite Cheshire grin
Lay with me, my dear, in the evening clear
I'll be dreaming in my paper-pale skin
In the summer silence, I was getting violent
In the summer silence, I was doing nothing
In the summer silence, I was getting violent
In the summer silence, I was doing nothing
In the summer silence, I was getting violent
In the summer silence, I was doing nothing
In the summer silence, I was getting violent
In the summer silence, I was doing nothing
In the summer silence, in the summer silence
In the summer silence, I was doing nothing
