The Poetic Idiot

Mother

Mother

Based upon Mama by My Chemical Romance

Mother, I warned you

Mama, don’t cry,

I’m right here beneath you,

Don’t look to the sky.

I told you it’d happen,

You knew it was true,

The sins, they outweighed,

All the good I could do.

Don’t weep and don’t follow,

You still have a shot,

It’s not all that bad here,

I like it a lot.

Perhaps you had caused it,

You gave me no love,

But the evil I’ve done

Did not get me Above.

So farewell I tell thee,

And now heed my voice,

Mama, I warned thee,

I had not a choice.
