The Mother In Me
AFI · Answer That and Stay Fashionable (Re-Release) [1997]
caught in a world that's plauged by something they call love
a paradigm of illness is the beast i have become
the sights that i have seen could nearly bring me to my knees
i've seen exactly what it is i never want to be
but i keep it deep inside myself
it's within me
keep it deep inside yourself and sink with me.
last night i had the misfortune to see it all first hand
"evacuate the premises" was the innate first command
what drives the need for all of this?
and will i ever understand?
has someone failed to tell me of this master plan?
but i keep it deep inside myself
it's within me
keep it deep inside yourself and sink with me.
