Like A Kid by The Trouble With Templeton Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Can't help but sigh when I'm alone and feeling lower, and
Filling my nights thinking 'bout life if I were bolder, and
Like a kid in the back room, watching television waiting for the bathroom
It isn't safe to assume there'll be someone on the corner to escort you

[Chorus]
Mother, why'd you tell my friends?
Mother, why'd you sell my things?
I'm feeling like a faucet leaking

[Verse 2]
Can't help but cry when I'm at home and sleeping soundly, and
Reading my books 'bout how life looks when you're astounding, and
Like a man at the front door, always selling you a ticket to the big draw
It isn't safe to ignore that other part of you that you would almost kill for

[Chorus]
Mother, why'd you tell my friends?
Mother, why'd you sell my things?
Mother, what is it this time?
Mother, why you always crying?
You're looking like a faucet leaking
[Outro]
Can't help but sigh when I'm alone and feeling lower
