Mother
Danzig · Thrall-Demonsweat E.P. [1993]
Tell your children not to walk my way
Tell your children not to hear my words
What they mean
What they say
Mother
Mother
Can you keep them in the dark for life
Can you hide them from the waiting world
Oh mother
Father
Gonna take your daughter out tonight
Gonna show her my world
Oh father
Not about to see your light
But if you wanna find hell with me
I can show you what it's like
Till your bleeding
Not about to see your light
And if you wanna find hell with me
I can show you what it's
Mother
Tell your children NOT to hold my hand
Tell your children not to understand
Oh mother
Father
Do you wanna bang heads with me
Do you wanna feel everything
Oh father
Not about to see your light
And if you wanna find hell with me
I can show you what it's like
Till your bleeding
Not about to see your light
And if you wanna find hell with me
I can show you what it's
Yea
Not about to see your light
But if you wanna find hell with me
I can show you what it's like
Till your bleeding
Not about to see your light
And if you wanna find hell with me
I can show you what it's like
Mother
Yea
Mother
Glenn Danzig's solo project has long been defined by a dark, gothic sensibility that blends punk energy with heavy metal and blues influences. 'Mother,' featured on the 1993 Thrall-Demonsweat E.P., stands as a testament to this distinct sonic identity. The recording captures the raw intensity characteristic of Danzig's mid-career output, exploring themes of mortality and the supernatural that permeate his extensive discography. While the E.P. served as a bridge between major studio albums, the track maintains the brooding atmosphere found in his earlier landmark releases. This work reflects the artist's continued evolution, balancing his signature baritone vocals with a production style that emphasizes depth and texture. It remains a significant song in a catalogue known for its consistent exploration of horror and the macabre.
