[00:01.687]Mom, I know I let you down
[00:18.791]And though you say the days are happy
[00:21.856]Why is the power off and I'm ****ed up?
[00:25.311]And, Mom, I know he's not around
[00:31.439]But don't you place the blame on me
[00:34.784]As you pour yourself another drink, yeah
[00:39.367]I guess we are who we are
[00:45.458]Headlights shining in the dark night, I drive on
[00:52.688]Maybe we took this too far
[00:57.927]I went in headfirst, never thinkin' about who what I said hurt
[01:01.919]In what verse, my mom probably got it the worst
[01:04.103]The brunt of it, but as stubborn as we are, did I take it too far?
[01:08.303]"Cleanin' Out My Closet" and all them other songs
[01:09.976]But regardless, I don't hate you ‘cause, Ma
[01:12.273]You're still beautiful to me, ‘cause you're my mom
[01:14.751]Though far be it from you to be calm
[01:16.688]Our house was Vietnam, Desert Storm
[01:18.743]And both of us put together could form an atomic bomb
[01:21.143]Equivalent to chemical warfare
[01:22.559]And forever we could drag this on and on
[01:25.271]But agree to disagree, that gift for me
[01:27.800]Up under the Christmas tree don't mean shit to me
[01:29.535]You're kickin' me out? It's 15 degrees
[01:31.287]And it's Christmas Eve, "Little p***k, just leave!"
[01:33.031]Ma, let me grab my ****ing coat!
[01:34.543]Anything to have each other's goats
[01:36.215]Why we always at each other's throats?
[01:37.880]Especially when Dad, he ****ed us both
[01:39.871]We're in the same ****in' boat
[01:41.728]You'd think that'd make us close (nope)
[01:43.199]Further away it drove us, but together, headlights shine
[01:46.040]And a car full of belongings, still got a ways to go
[01:48.520]Back to grandma's house, it's straight up the road
[01:50.743]And I was the man of the house, the oldest
[01:52.623]So my shoulders carried the weight of the load
[01:54.463]Then Nate got taken away by the state at eight years old
[01:57.943]And that's when I realized you were sick
[01:59.935]And it wasn't fixable or changeable
[02:01.631]And to this day we remain estranged, and I hate it though, but—
[02:04.488]I guess we are who we are
[02:10.567]Headlights shining in the dark night, I drive on
[02:17.607]Maybe we took this too far
[02:23.695]‘Cause to this day we remain estranged, and I hate it though
[02:27.857]‘Cause you ain't even get to witness your grandbabies grow
[02:30.586]But I'm sorry, Momma, for "Cleanin' Out My Closet"
[02:32.855]At the time I was angry, rightfully? Maybe so
[02:34.639]Never meant that far to take it though
[02:37.311]‘Cause now I know it's not your fault, and I'm not makin' jokes
[02:40.649]That song I no longer play at shows
[02:42.199]And I cringe every time it's on the radio
[02:44.791]And I think of Nathan being placed in a home
[02:46.751]And all the medicine you fed us and
[02:48.559]How I just wanted you to taste your own
[02:50.183]But now the medication's takin' over
[02:53.095]And your mental state's deterioratin' slow
[02:54.975]And I'm way too old to cry, the shit is painful though
[02:57.202]But, Ma, I forgive you, so does Nathan, yo
[02:59.551]All you did, all you said, you did your best to raise us both
[03:02.975]Foster care, that cross you bear, few may be as heavy as yours
[03:04.711]But I love you, Debbie Mathers
[03:07.871]Oh, what a tangled web we have ‘cause
[03:10.015]One thing I never asked was
[03:12.271]Where the **** my deadbeat dad was
[03:13.271]**** it, I guess he had trouble keepin' up with every address
[03:16.335]But I'da flipped every mattress, every rock and desert cactus
[03:20.135]Owned a collection of maps
[03:21.439]And followed my kids to the edge of the atlas
[03:23.255]If someone ever moved 'em from me
[03:25.855]That you coulda bet your asses
[03:26.375]If I had to come down the chimney, dressed as Santa, kidnap 'em
[03:29.815]And although one has only met their grandma once
[03:32.464]You pulled up in our drive one night
[03:34.471]As we were leavin' to get some hamburgers
[03:36.383]Me, her and Nate, we introduced you, hugged you
[03:38.639]And as you left I had this overwhelming sadness
[03:42.064]Come over me as we pulled off to go our separate paths and
[03:45.327]I saw your headlights as I looked back
[03:47.447]And I'm mad I didn't get the chance to
[03:49.112]Thank you for being my mom and my dad
[03:51.399]So, Mom, please accept this as a
[03:53.159]Tribute; I wrote this on the jet, I guess I had to
[03:55.456]Get this off my chest, I hope I get the chance to
[03:57.263]Lay it 'fore I'm dead, the stewardess said to fasten
[04:00.287]My seatbelt, I guess we're crashin'
[04:02.903]So, if I'm not dreamin', I hope you get this message that
[04:06.064]I will always love you from afar, ‘cause you're my mom
[04:09.167]I guess we are who we are
[04:14.911]Headlights shining in the dark night, I drive on
[04:22.079]Maybe we took this too far
[04:27.215]I want a new life (start over)
[04:30.384]One without a cause (clean slate)
[04:33.023]So I'm coming home tonight
[04:36.119]Well, no matter what the cost
[04:40.087]And if the plane goes down
[04:42.784]Or if the crew can't wake me up
[04:45.911]Well, just know that I'm alright
[04:49.159]I was not afraid to die
[04:52.775]Oh, even if there's songs to sing
[04:56.095]Well, my children will carry me
[04:59.711]Just know that I'm alright
[05:02.536]I was not afraid to die
[05:05.599]Because I put my faith in my little girls
[05:10.007]So I'll never say goodbye cruel world
[05:12.415]Just know that I'm alright
[05:15.823]I am not afraid to die
[05:21.016]I guess we are who we are
[05:27.103]Headlights shining in the dark night, I drive on
[05:36.335]Maybe we took this too far
[05:39.439]I want a new life
