"my mother's daughter" lyrics

"my mother's daughter"

It's in my head, it's the reason, some days, I can't make my bed
Or leave my bed
It's a silhouette of my every fear and every small regret
That I've ever had

Obsessing over all the broken pieces that I've ever known
Then I think of all the reasons I don't deserve him and I won't
Then I chase an empty feeling and I cover it in smoke
Don't know what it is I'm needing, must be something in my bones

'Cause I'm my mother's daughter and she knows just as much
As what her mother taught her about what the world wants
Yeah, I'm my mother's daughter, think it's in my blood
To feel like I'm underwater and like I'll never be enough

Doomed with the blues
She said, "I hope I didn't pass it down to you" (Down to you)
But it hits me too (Hits me too)
When I'm in my room (In my room)
And when I'm out, but I'll just blame the moon, easier to do

When I'm obsessing over all the broken pieces that I've ever known
Then I think of all the reasons I don't deserve him and I won't
Then I chase an empty feeling and I cover it in smoke
Don't know what it is I'm needing, must be something in my bones

'Cause I'm my mother's daughter and she knows just as much
As what her mother taught her about what the world wants
Yeah, I'm my mother's daughter, think it's in my blood
To feel like I'm underwater, and like I'll never be enough

(Never be enough)
Never be enough
Oh

I've spent ten thousand hours in my own head
Ten thousand hours in the deep end
Will it ever go away?
Go away
Will it ever go away?
Go away
