Well I've been fooled
And I've fooled around
No sense to lie
About where I'm bound

But once it's light
And you're home
There won't be no time to burn
Burn through the night
Throw me away
Ten troubles deep
On Mother's Day

But once it's light
And you're home
There won't be no time to burn
The names and the fridge
Are gonna have to wait their turn

See I'm dressed
And I'm done
Yeah I'm coming for the sun
I've got to get some rest

And no,
Won't you cover my face
I'm looking pale
And it is time to go home
Beneath the veil
Mother feels so alone
Beneath the veil
She's so alone

You know I'm scared
Scared straight to hell
Just hear my voice
Know I'm not well

But once it's light
And you're home
There won't be no time to burn
The names and the fridge
Are gonna have to wait their turn

See I'm dressed
And I'm done
Yeah I'm coming for the sun
I've got to get some...

And no,
Won't you cover my face
I'm looking pale
And it is time to go home
Beneath the veil
Mother feels so alone
Beneath the veil
She's so alone

And no,
Won't you make me up nice
While I'm around
Before I get out of town
Beneath the ground
There is barely a sound
Beneath the ground
There's not a sound
Oh woah, oh woah
