“Mother May I is about the worst day of my life that shaped me forever. I am trying to take a tragic moment and create positive opportunities from what I learned. ” --Emma Garell

lyrics

Angel did you come
to kill the morning sun
Or fill my empty lungs
Do you wanna kill the martyr

Do you wanna take me home
Or drown me like a sinking stone
Do you wanna hold me close wreck my soul

Deep decay that eats away mother May I
The fever dream that keeps me clean mother May I
Can I get high
Can I get low
Maybe I’ll die
Maybe I won’t
Mother May I, mother may I

Paint my blue eyes black
Cover up the tracks
I know you’ve got my back
Suffocate me love or hate me

Do you wanna take me home
Bleed me like a broken bone
Do you wanna hold me close or let me go

Deep decay that eats away mother May I
The fever dream that keeps me clean mother May I
Can I get high
Can I get low
Maybe I’ll die
Maybe I won’t
Mother May I, mother may I

Deep decay that eats away mother May I
The fever dream that keeps me clean mother May I
Can I get high
Can I get low
Maybe I’ll die
Maybe I won’t
Mother May I, mother may I
