Motherly Bug
first things first you think the worst
take my worst days and make them worse
dismiss my words so my side's not heard
and kick like strangers when I'm down hurt
I fall out with friends you side with them
isolate me further with sympathy for them
if the world's against me you side against
you make me feel worse then do it again
they say you only ever have one
but Mum you mother like I have none
why turn to you when I can turn and run
please understand the bond is done
