Sometimes I Call My Mother A Whore

Her first marriage, my first sorrow,
Was split with an axe
Leaving me to pick out decade long splinters

 

(Liquor here)

 

Her second man, the best I think,
Shot himself to end his pain
Piling it onto our shoulders, hearts, and minds instead

 

(More liquor there)

 

Her third husband, a month after the last,
When found out gathered his lies and ran away
Leaving a baby and resentment behind 

 

(Now there\'s liquor everywhere)

 

Currently her fourth,
And crossing my fingers he\'s the end
But I don\'t expect much looking at her past
