Bring Me Some Peace Lyrics

I am a mama's girl these days and I love the things I do

Been working out the shit I've seen since I was twenty-two

Got money in my pocket

And people who surround me with good things

Therapy for 18 months and a summer by the sea

Adjusting to a life I like without you next to me

And I still think about you sometimes

Think about whatever we'd have been

I am a professional now

Fallen on my feet

And still I'm unexcited

Still I'm incomplete

I am a professional now

People will judge me on what they see

I walk on every road these days as if it were a hill

Climbing and climbing and making myself ill

And I'm living up to expectations

I'm breathing and I'm bold, but I am bored

Trying to take it easy just turned me to a whore

Cos the difference between celibacy and martyrdom is naught

But my body doesn't feel like mine

And everything is aching all the time

But I'm a professional now

I cannot be seen to do these things that I've been doing

Since I was seventeen

I am a professional now

People will judge me on what they see

And rightly or wrongly

I've been taken for a ride

But I will not stand for it

'Cos I will not survive

If I don't hang up all my hang ups take a breath and tell myself I'm fine

Oh lord

Oh lord

I'm am sorry, bring me some peace

Oh lord

Oh lord bring me some peace

And I am in a dark place maybe darker than before

Existing without motivation is grating me somewhat

I've got plenty of excuses

And I'll still be working on them when I'm grey

Like I'll blame it on my mother

Cos she was never there

And I'll blame it on my father

And I'll say he didn't care

I'll blame it on my sisters

The ones I never had

I'll blame it on my brother

And I'll blame it on that man

But you know I'll never blame it

You know I'll never blame it on myself

Oh lord

Oh lord

Yes I'm sorry, bring me some peace

Oh lord

Oh lord

Bring me some peace
