Tell Me

I'm always wondering if I'm where I'm supposed to be

'Cause everything's moving, and I'm barely on my feet

Endlessly unsure of how to arrange this mess

And everyone seems to do so much more with less

'Cause I'm drinking too much, and I'm all out of touch

Stumbling around in the dark

And I need to know how I can figure this out

'Cause it feels like I'm falling apart

So, tell me mother, when will I know what to do?

If I can't keep up, and I don't wanna get up this time

Oh, my mother, when will I know how to lose?

How do I keep up when I don't wanna get up this time?

Tell me it's alright

I always thought things would just fall in place

'Cause when I was 16, nothing seemed too far away

And I know you see so much of yourself in me

So when did you become the woman you'd hoped you'd be?

'Cause I'm drinking too much, and I'm all out of touch

And I'm stumbling around in the dark

And I need to know how I can figure this out

'Cause it feels like I'm falling apart

So, tell me mother, when will I know what to do?

If I can't keep up and I don't wanna get up this time

Oh, my mother, when will I know how to lose?

How do I keep up, when I don't wanna get up this time?

Tell me mother, when will I know what to do?

If I can't keep up and I don't wanna get up this time

Oh, my mother, when will I know how to lose?

How do I keep up, when I don't wanna get up this time?

Tell me it's alright
