mars

Lyrics

there's a hole wearing through this couch of mine, and all the cushions are falling out, one little piece at a time, you might see yourself in me, but i don't see nobody i know, this isn't the way i figured it would be, when i figured it a long time ago, there's a rule me and my little boy have, you've got to say 'i love you' before you close your eyes, then he can dream himself to sleep and i can pray or cry, one thing i have taught him well is to never wonder why, why wonder why, i see mars, reflecting in my little boy's brown eyes, and he says "mama, i'm going to get there someday", and i say "fly.", well, you can hold the whole entire world in your hands, or you can borrow all of your lessons from me, life is not a lesson son, i tell him life is just a dream, and it's not as bad as it looks right now, but nothing's as, bad as it seems, not as it seems. i see mars, reflecting in my little boy's brown eyes, and he says "mama, i'm going to get there some-, mama, i'm going to get there someday", and i say "fly.", well, there's a hole wearing through this heart of mine, and all of the filling is falling out, one piece at a time, but. i see mars, reflecting in my little boy's brown eyes, and he says "mama, i'm going to get there some -, mama i'm going to get there someday"
