Mama, it really hurts today
Even worse than yesterday
You can't make it go away
Mama, it was you that made me good
I wish you understood
You did everything you should
And I've survived

I'm so good at takin' pain pills
I'm no good at keepin' my mind still
When I'm down I'll eat a happy meal
I should be tired when I'm wide awake
A little broken but I can't complain
It used to hurt me, now I'm just not fazed, now
I'm so good at takin' pain

Mama, I think I've had enough
Of giving in and getting numb
But I'm not brave enough
It's too much, for both of us to take
You're wanting me to change
But I just make the same mistakes
And I've survived
Yeah I'm okay, most of the time

I'm so good at takin' pain pills
I'm no good at keepin' my mind still
When I'm down I'll eat a happy meal
I should be tired when I'm wide awake
A little broken but I can't complain
It used to hurt me, now I'm just not fazed, now
I'm so good at takin' pain

Am I alive?
Only angels were meant to fly
Is this hell or paradise?
Or am I high?

Mama, it was you that made me good
I wish you understood
You did everything you could

I'm so good at takin' pain pills
I'm no good at keepin' my mind still
When I'm down I'll eat a happy meal
I should be tired when I'm wide awake
A little broken but I can't complain
It used to hurt me, now I'm just not fazed, now
I'm so good at takin' pain
I'm so good at takin' pain
Pain, pain, pain, pain, pain, pain...
