lyrics

Tell me and I’ll Listen

Mama are you mad?
It’s ok if you are, I am too, I am too
Don’t shrink Mama, are you sad? Say whatever’s on your mind.
I’ll listen to you

Tell me and I’ll listen, tell me what I’m missing
What is it that’s weighing you down?
Tell me and I’ll listen, tell me what I’m missing
We can walk all night all over town

Tell me what you never say
Tell me how you weren't ok
Anything that feels that way, I want to know

I know you tried so hard to always be so good for everyone
Let’s take a chance
You’ve been strong like an anchor, holding on like a statue, I want you
To break free and dance

Tell me and I’ll listen, tell me what I’m missing
What is it that’s weighing you down?
Tell me and I’ll listen, tell me what I’m missing
We can walk all night all over town

You can curse your Dad for drinking and living like a lock box
You can curse your Mom for leaving you to raise the kids
You can curse all your bosses with their endless demands
The leaving, the losses, the wandering hands
You can curse all your brothers for dying on you
