lyrics

I've been giving it up
You've been taking what's mine
So when does it end
I've been holding the line

Got a thing to confess
And I can't let it slide
It's gonna give me away
Eat me up inside

Running low on the highs
Running out on the ins
Feeling empty and weak
Take myself for a spin

Can't pull an all-nighter
It's not me anymore
Cuz I'm not the provider
Get your feet off my floor

About run out of steam
About run out of time
About run out of me
Gotta get back what's mine

In the end it's just me
And what's left of my dreams
With the wind and the sky
And the places I've seen

Gather dust 'til your cocoon is fully spun
Shame you came up short in the long run
And when the things you heard slip out your ear
It seems smaller in here

There's a lock on the soul there
Keeps that evil inside her
Just don't knock on my door
Cuz I'm not the provider
Tip me over, pour me out
It might be what you're about

Sitting quietly is your new way to run
Culture the mood when the day is almost done
And when the things outside move swiftly by
It seems peaceful inside

Trade relevance for a plot designed for one
Project your ken on everything under the sun
And when the things inside cross your mind
It seems peaceful outside

Tip me over, tip me over
Tip me over, pour me out

Change the channel to find your favorite rerun
Settle in and coast toward the midnight sun
And when the thing that hurts brings no tear
It's dark in here

Mother's Mistakes image

Mother's Mistakes Albany, New York

Progressive rock from New York's capital region. Fans of Porcupine Tree, King Crimson, Pink Floyd, and Yes will find something they love in Mother's Mistakes:

From the minds of two homeless doomsday prophets, words that were first scrawled on sandwich boards and sounds that began in overtaxed guts. Heed their lessons, hard-earned from ordeal and ordure alike. ... more
