Lyrics:

My mother told me

She says without thoughts conforming

All my strength is without doubt now, hard to fill

Said without my expection

She says without it I'll see you again

But I don't love you myself, no I don't love you

And I don't wanna be a liar, but I do it every day

I don't wanna be so tired, but I can't sleep any way

Don't believe the things they tell you, they lie

Don't believe the things they tell you, no

The thing my mother told me

She said without love conforming

When you have recovered

You'll see your Jesus Christ uncovered again

I will save it to my play

And I don't have the money to pay

Scream out but I need you again

But I don't love you myself, I don't love you myself

I don't wanna be a liar, but I do it every day

I don't wanna be so tired, but I can't sleep anyway

Don't believe the things they tell you, no

Don't believe the things they tell you, they lie

Don't believe the things they tell you, no
