Mean It lyrics

I was born next to my mother

She sang me to sleep

And I grew to adore my father

As he drowned in a drink

And I know that I should be grateful

For the things they taught

I was raised to be so damn faithful

I didn't need a God

Time is crazy

My grandmother made up a lie of her life

When she died, well, she gave me

A necklace that came from the sky

Said my grandfather made it

Out of gold and a diamond

That always reminded him

Of what life could have been

So when I say I love you I wanna mean it

Cause I say a lot of things that I don't mean

And when I say I want to I wanna mean it

Cause I know not to say yes to just anything

Hope to die next to my daughter

Let her sing to me sleep

Having made the mistakes of a mother

Still I taught her to breathe

When you're low and you're deep underwater

Stay faithful, remember what you love

So when the world gets painful

You become your own God

I could daydream

Sit back and think of a mythical life

But the season's changing

The tragic thing is that you can't live it twice

So I try to be brave and

Tell her that we'll meet again

That we've met before

But I'm not really so sure

So when I say I love you I wanna mean it

Cause I say a lot of things that I don't mean

And when I say I want to I wanna mean it

Cause I know not to say yes to just anything
