Your Mother's Favorite

Fight after fight
 Break after break
 Night after night
 Lying awake
 I can't find rest
 Watching you walk
 Watching you laugh
 Watching you talk
 It cuts me in half
 'Cause no matter how I dress
 I can't be enough
 I was never enough
 'Cause you like the bad boys
 With the long black hair
 With their crooked smile
 And their jet trap stare
 And I, no, I'll never compare
 'Cause we were trough before we could start
 'Cause he was tattoed on the back of your heart
 But when he's busy
 Break a little part
 Know that I will alway be
 Your mother's favorite
 Know that I will alway be
 Your mother's favorite
 Week after week
 Mile after mile
 Unable to speak
 Unable to smile
 I've made it trough
 Word after word
 Day after day
 What I've never heard
 Unable to say
 To someone new
 I love you
 I loved you
 But you like the bad boys
 With the long black hair
 With their crooked smile
 And their jet trap stare
 And I know I'll never compare
 'Cause we were trough before we could start
 'Cause he was tattoed on the back of your heart
 But when he's busy
 Break a little part
 Know that I will alway be
 Your mother's favorite
 Know that I will alway be
 Your mother's favorite
 Stop, stop, stop, stop breaking me down
 Stop, stop, stop, stop turning me round
 Stop, stop, stop, stop this war
 I,I,I, I've learned how to fall, for
 For the person who calls me
 They were looking for
 'Cause you like the bad boys
 With the long black hair
 With their crooked smile
 And their jet trap stare
 And that's when she came
 Like a brand new start
 Now, she's the new name on the back of my heart
 And when you're busy
 Know that I won't ever be
 Your mother's favourite
 Know that I will always be
 Her mother's favourite
 Her mother's favourite
 Her mother's favourite
