[Verse 1]
Lately I am finding that the only time that I find peace
Is when I’m in my room on my bed
When I’m by myself with a piano black guitar in my hands
I've seen enough of what this world can be
That I'd rather hide than deal with the noise outside
All the gold-plated lies, and all the promises that people don't keep
[Chorus]
When I was younger I turned to my mother
I wanted her to give me advice
She said, why don’t you worry about your own life, son
You gotta worry about your own life
Now I’m older, I look over my shoulder
And it’s a struggle just to make it through the night
But you told me how to make it all right, so
I’m gonna make it alright
[Verse 2]
Maybe someone out there understands me
Or also had to feel what it's like when every minute's a fight
But tonight I'm fine with the company of me, myself and I
Can’t be everything to everybody
So to myself I keep, no need for passerbys
I’m against the tide, I’m alone but not lonely
[Chorus]
When I was younger I turned to my mother
I wanted her to give me advice
She said, why don’t you worry about your own life, son
You gotta worry about your own life
Now I’m older, I look over my shoulder
And it’s a struggle just to make it through the night
But you told me how to make it all right, so
I’m gonna make it alright
[Bridge]
I've seen it all before, I'll see it all again
I'm no wiser now than I was back then
I've seen it all before, I'll see it all again
I'm no wiser now than I was back then
I've seen it all before, I'll see it all again
I'm no wiser now than I was back then
I've seen it all before, I'll see it all again
I'm no wiser now than I was back then
[Chorus]
When I was younger I turned to my mother
I wanted her to give me advice
She said, why don’t you worry about your own life, son
You gotta worry about your own life
Now I’m older, I look over my shoulder
And it’s a struggle just to make it through the night
But you told me how to make it all right, so
I’m gonna make it alright
Lately I am finding that the only time that I find peace
Is when I’m in my room on my bed
When I’m by myself with a piano black guitar in my hands
I've seen enough of what this world can be
That I'd rather hide than deal with the noise outside
All the gold-plated lies, and all the promises that people don't keep
[Chorus]
When I was younger I turned to my mother

You gotta worry about your own life
