sorry mother that your feelings changed
too many people said your life was great
and now i can't see how ya love me
it's a shame you think berating leads to relating
something had to happened to your petty ways
piling up your money til the end of days
to pay jesus
for a nameplate
on a park bench
yall have the same taste
voicing your concerns about my face, relationship and how i've brought disgrace
and now i can't see how you love me
it's a shame you think my happiness is above me
something had to happened to you anyway
you already decided i would be the missing link in a chain you made
well, i sawed it off my leg
and forgot it

This New Zealand group have a sweet glaze and an underlying toothiness that would have fit right in on mid-’90s alt-rock radio. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 1, 2019
