Let it Bleed
Lyrics
Mother always made you feel like you were worthless
Make her look like she's important on the surface
The love she had for you was strong but felt uncertain
Will I be what you need? Do you wanna be like me?
Can I empty all the nonsense that she shoved inside your head?
Can you suffer through the silence? Bet you wish that she was dead
Do you see her when you think of all the bullshit you were fed?
Do you know who you need? Do you wanna die like me?
Best behave yourself, fuck up, you're droppin' egg onto her face
No one's ever gonna love you now you're just a waste of space
You're pathetic you're a liar and you're kind of a disgrace
Do you wanna set her free? Makin' your knuckles bleed
Open up your scars for me
Open up your scars for me
Purge your shame and let it bleed
Purge your shame and let it bleed
Tore you down and made you think that you would never be attractive
She would say that you were broken 'cause you'd always get distracted
Didn't care when you held it to your wrists and you were aboutta slash 'em
Give me your energy, birthed from the enemy
All you wanted was to make her feel so very fuckin' proud
Departed in three months from when the diagnosis was announced
You're picking up the pieces that she left you scattered all around
You know I'm what you need, I know you wanna be like me
Now you look for love from women based on if they give you any
Head is full of hoes and they all easy, bitches in the plenty
One of them gotta love you back but you wanna fuck too many
Do you wanna think like me? I know you wanna fuck like me
Open up your scars for me
Open up your scars for me
Purge your shame and let it bleed
Purge your shame and let it bleed
Why'd she treat you like that? She knew better you were just a kid
Did she realize how much damage someone's mother could inflict?
Gonna let go, this is something that I know your gonna fix
Know you're gonna be like me, know you're gonna be like me
