Lucy Dacus - My Mother & I Lyrics
My mother hates her body
We share the same outline
She swears that she loves mine
I blur at the edges
I'm all soft shapes and lines
The stars have a lot to say
About babies born in the month of May
We are down-to-earth
We see eye-to-eye
We dig our feet in
My mother and I
My mother and I
They called me an old soul
The difference between a soul and a ghost
I feared what was inside
Trapped in my body
Kept from the outside
A spirit searching for a second life
The stars have a lot to say
About women born in the month of May
We want love
Warm and forever
We want to die in the presence of our loved ones
My mother and I
My mother and I
All she has given
All I have taken
All is forgiven
All is forsaken

Lucy Dacus My Mother & I Comments
im listening to this at 1 AM while crying really hard
Just want to say how unbelievably great this song was when you sang it in Omaha the other night
i get you, my mother hates everything honey ...feel good 💙
What a beautiful song. I love it.
I love this
Dacus Family- Thank you for the duet at Friday Cheers. Really special and beautiful. Not sure how you all kept it together, but something I will not forget.
🤩🤩
Yeah this is pretty relevant and a wonderful song such simple vibes yet it works so well !
When someone says the words I didn't know I wanted to say.
Beautiful ! The Smiths vibe a bit right ?
Such a deep song, I'm a little bit curious about what fostered the creation of this music, more precisely what she was thinking when she wrote it. Oftentimes you unfortunately end up having so little info and perspective about what was going in the artist's life when they were creating beautiful and timeless art.
Kind of morbid but i get it
Can I find the chords somewhere? Would love to sing this song for my mom ❤️
This is the first song I've tried to work out. I think it's about right. Hopefully someone else will do the bridge and stuff. Lovely song.
