Seems like such a long time ago
Hard to believe it was real
A friend when there was no place to go
Something I didn’t have to steel

Mama don’t cry for me anymore
Cause this is what I have been waiting for
And the gift you gave
It’s helping more and more

All I ever wanted, was to feel I was in control
Throw down the rope man, and pull me from this hole
Save me from the demons, like drugs and dear old dad
Help me find my way back home

It’s not the way that it use to be…never again
But your gift, it still comes
Sometimes it hurts and confuses me
Sometimes it keeps me hanging on

Mama don’t cry for me any more
Cause isn’t this what I’ve been put here for
Maybe together we can change some things
Maybe someone will say, hell yeah!

Mama don’t cry for me any more
Isn’t this what we have been waiting for
Don’t give up to soon
Maybe another will come for you

All I ever wanted, was to know I’m in control
Throw down the rope man, and pull me from this hole
Save me from the demons, like drugs and dear old dad
Help me find my way back home
All I ever wanted, was to die before I’m old
Hold me, hold me, hold me down
He’ll never let me go
Save me from the wreckage and carry me away
Help me find my way back home
