don't blame your mother because she doesn't know what you're in don't blame your mother because she's frustrated that you haven't said more than a few words and it's her weekend off don't blame your mother for slamming your door when she enters for the seventh time today and you're still in bed it's not her fault for the things that you feel and it's not her fault for not being able to understand but it isn't your fault either you've been broken ten ways to Sunday and it is a miracle you still have your limbs you don't have to worry that your extremities are numb and chilled because your heart is doing the best it can your vocal chords need a rest sometimes and it's not your mother's fault for not understanding but it's not yours either

don't blame your mother because she doesn't know what you're in don't blame your mother because she's frustrated that you haven't said more than a few words and it's her weekend off don't blame your mother for slamming your door when she enters for the seventh time today and you're still in bed it's not her fault for the things that you feel and it's not her fault for not being able to understand but it isn't your fault either you've been broken ten ways to Sunday and it is a miracle you still have your limbs you don't have to worry that your extremities are numb and chilled because your heart is doing the best it can your vocal chords need a rest sometimes and it's not your mother's fault for not understanding but it's not yours either
