[00:12.83]Mom, I know I let you down
[00:18.28]And though you say the days are happy
[00:21.83]Why is the power off and I'm fucked up?
[00:25.30]And, mom, I know he's not around
[00:31.48]But don't you place the blame on me
[00:35.02]As you pour yourself another drink, yeah
[00:39.23]I guess we are who we are
[00:45.51]Headlights shining in the dark night, I drive on
[00:52.31]Maybe we took this too far
[00:58.11]I went in headfirst, never thinkin' about who, what I said hurt
[01:01.80]In what verse, my mom probably got it the worst
[01:04.32]The brunt of it, but as stubborn as we are, did I take it too far?
[01:07.77]"Cleanin' Out My Closet" and all them other songs
[01:09.84]But regardless, I don't hate you 'cause, Ma
[01:11.98]You're still beautiful to me, 'cause you're my Ma
[01:14.80]Though far be it from you to be calm
[01:16.59]Our house was Vietnam, Desert Storm
[01:18.53]And both of us put together could form an atomic bomb
[01:20.98]Equivalent to chemical warfare
[01:22.47]And forever we could drag this on and on
[01:24.79]But agree to disagree, that gift for me
[01:27.55]Up under the Christmas tree don't mean shit to me
[01:29.53]You're kickin' me out? It's 15 degrees
[01:31.32]And it's Christmas Eve, "Little prick, just leave"
[01:32.97]Ma, let me grab my fucking coat
[01:34.78]Anything to have each other's goats
[01:36.27]Why we always at each other's throats?
[01:38.06]Especially when Dad, he fucked us both
[01:40.04]We're in the same fuckin' boat
[01:41.56]You'd think that'd make us close (Nope)
[01:43.28]Further away it drove us, but together, headlights shine
[01:46.12]And a car full of belongings, still got a ways to go
[01:48.60]Back to grandma's house, it's straight up the road
[01:50.57]And I was the man of the house, the oldest
[01:52.27]So my shoulders carried the weight of the load
[01:55.03]Then Nate got taken away by the state at eight years old
[01:57.54]And that's when I realized you were sick
[01:59.45]And it wasn't fixable or changeable
[02:01.58]And to this day we remain estranged, and I hate it though, but
[02:04.51]I guess we are who we are
[02:10.51]Headlights shining in the dark night, I drive on
[02:17.64]Maybe we took this too far
[02:24.27]'Cause to this day we remain estranged, and I hate it though
[02:27.53]'Cause you ain't even get to witness your grandbabies grow
[02:30.53]But I'm sorry, momma, for "Cleanin' Out My Closet"
[02:32.81]At the time I was angry, rightfully? Maybe so
[02:35.08]Never meant that far to take it though
[02:36.58]'Cause now I know it's not your fault, and I'm not makin' jokes
[02:40.29]That song I no longer play at shows
[02:42.02]And I cringe every time it's on the radio
[02:44.50]And I think of Nathan being placed in a home
[02:46.64]And all the medicine you fed us and
[02:48.13]How I just wanted you to taste your own
[02:49.98]But now the medication's takin' over
[02:52.51]And your mental state's deterioratin' slow
[02:54.75]And I'm way too old to cry, the shit is painful though
[02:57.02]But, Ma, I forgive you, so does Nathan, yo
[02:59.83]All you did, all you said, you did your best to raise us both
[03:02.96]Foster care, that cross you bear, few may be as heavy as yours
[03:06.62]But I love you, Debbie Mathers
[03:08.05]Oh, what a tangled web we have 'cause
[03:09.80]One thing I never asked was
[03:11.59]Where the fuck my deadbeat dad was
[03:13.30]Fuck it, I guess he had trouble keepin' up with every address
[03:16.32]But I'da flipped every mattress, every rock and desert cactus
[03:19.82]Owned a collection of maps
[03:20.99]And followed my kids to the edge of the atlas
[03:23.02]If someone ever moved 'em from me
[03:24.82]That you coulda bet your asses
[03:26.53]If I had to come down the chimney, dressed as Santa, kidnap 'em
[03:29.58]And although one has only met their grandma once
[03:32.58]You pulled up in our drive one night
[03:34.13]As we were leavin' to get some hamburgers
[03:36.01]Me, her and Nate, we introduced you, hugged you
[03:38.57]And as you left I had this overwhelming sadness
[03:41.82]Come over me as we pulled off to go our separate paths and
[03:45.07]I saw your headlights as I looked back
[03:47.11]And I'm mad I didn't get the chance to
[03:48.95]Thank you for being my mom and my dad
[03:51.32]So, mom, please accept this as a
[03:53.08]Tribute, I wrote this on the jet, I guess I had to
[03:55.31]Get this off my chest, I hope I get the chance to
[03:57.81]Lay it 'fore I'm dead, the stewardess said to fasten
[04:00.26]My seatbelt, I guess we're crashin'
[04:02.84]So, if I'm not dreamin', I hope you get this message that
[04:06.08]I will always love you from afar, 'cause you're my mom
[04:08.77]I guess we are who we are
[04:14.82]Headlights shining in the dark night, I drive on
[04:21.98]Maybe we took this too far
[04:26.28]I want a new life (Start over)
[04:29.49]One without a cause (Clean slate)
[04:32.39]So I'm coming home tonight (Yeah)
[04:35.74]Well, no matter what the cost
[04:39.24]And if the plane goes down
[04:42.34]Or if the crew can't wake me up
[04:45.52]Well, just know that I'm alright
[04:49.01]I was not afraid to die
[04:52.58]Oh, even if there's songs to sing
[04:55.79]Well, my children will carry me
[04:58.90]Just know that I'm alright
[05:01.98]I was not afraid to die
[05:05.23]Because I put my faith in my little girls
[05:08.74]So I'll never say goodbye cruel world
[05:11.85]Just know that I'm alright
[05:14.90]I am not afraid to die
[05:20.76]I guess we are who we are
[05:27.32]Headlights shining in the dark night, I drive on
[05:34.01]Maybe we took this too far
[05:38.33]I want a new life
