you could surely drown
in all the lies you've told
if the ***** don't sink you first
you'll be theΒ Β only one to burn
when your lighter flickers a flame too hot
you can't pay the bills or groceries
but you're willing to pay the price
for clinging to a man that was never yours
this is the role model you've become
I don't want to be just like my mommy anymore
