My mama told me slow it down, learn to take it slow
'Cause actin' like you're fine will make the hurt a lot low
Boy, I can hear the pain you hide, it's slurrin' through your words
If you're drinkin' just to feel again, you'll only make it worse

But Mama, I've tried and nothing's healin'
I'm out here barely breathin'
And I can't take this feelin' anymore
So give me just one good goddamn reason
Why I should stay when I feel like leavin'
'Cause I can't stand this feelin' anymore

My mama told me slow it down, learn to take it slow
'Cause actin' like you're fine will make the hurt a lot low
Boy, I can hear the pain you hide, it's slurrin' through your words
If you're drinkin' just to feel again, you'll only make it worse

But Mama, I've tried and nothing's healin'
I'm out here barely breathin'
And I can't take this feelin' anymore
So give me just one good goddamn reason
Why I should stay when I feel like leavin'
'Cause I can't stand this feelin' anymore

Now I've been steady drinkin', stayin' up at night
'Cause all this overthinkin' is messin' with my mind
Said I wouldn't do it again, but the bottle found my hand
Now I'm so far from sober, I can hardly even stand

So give me just one good goddamn reason
Why I should stay when I feel like leaving
'Cause I can't stand this feelin' anymore

My mama told me slow it down, learn to take it slow
'Cause actin' like you're fine will make the hurt a lot low
Boy, I can hear the pain you hide, it's slurrin' through your words
If you're drinkin' just to feel again, you'll only make it worse

But Mama, I've tried and nothing's healin'
I'm out here barely breathin'
And I can't take this feelin' anymore
So give me just one good goddamn reason
Why I should stay when I feel like leavin'
'Cause I can't stand this feelin' anymore

So Mama, if your love is somehow healin'
Then know that I don't wanna
Feel this goddamn lonely anymore
