Mamma, Cut Me Deeper Lyrics by Joe Iconis

Things To Ruin: The Songs Of Joe Iconis (Original Cast Recording)

2010

[ERIC]
I feel like I haven't felt a thing in days
I think that I've run out of bars to raise
And no matter how I beg or what I do
I can't get any help from you
And I'm cold, but don't tell anybody now
I just climb, yeah I climb
And I'm old, but don't tell all these people now
They all think I got time
Yeah, everybody thinks I got time
Well, I don't know what I got and I don't understand
G-g-g-gimme a shot, mamma, gimme a hand
Mamma, cut me deeper
Mamma, cut me deeper
I might not succeed but I'll survive
Mamma, help me get there
Mamma, push me harder
Mamma, cut me deeper
'Cause if I see I'm bleeding then I'll know that I'm alive
If I see I'm bleeding I will know that I'm alive
I think that I know where I need to be
But there's a quicksand situation been preventing me
I think that I am ready and prepared
But the problem is I'm also fucking scared
I don't have the capacity
To get what I need
Though I know I'm prepared
It doesn't mean that I'm gonna succeed
So help me, help me, help me, help me, help me
Mamma, cut me deeper
Mamma, cut me deeper
I think that I can take it, I'll survive
Mamma, test my limits
Mamma, take me higher
Mamma, cut me deeper
Cuz If I see I'm bleeding then I'll know I'm alive
If I see I'm bleeding I will know I'm alive
Cuz I can't feel a Goddam thing
Fuck the hug
I'll take the sting
Cuz even if it hurts to suffer the knife
At least the hurt
Is proof of life
It's proof of life
It's proof of life
Whoa, this isn't easy for me, no
All my language is wrong
But oh, I think what it comes down to
Is that I'm kinda strong
And my journey's been long
Cuz I put up with a lot and I put up a fight
But I'm now I'm begging you, mamma, help me make it right
And maybe I'm ready to make an advance
How'my ever gonna know if you don't give me a chance?
Cuz I don't know what I am and I don't know what's real
And really, how can I condemn if I can't even feel?
C'mon
Mamma, cut me deeper
Mamma, cut me deeper
I promise I can take it, I'll survive
Mamma, don't hold back now
Mamma, love me meaner
Mamma, tell the truth and
Mamma, don't be cleaner
And Mamma, cut the bullshit
That's how I'll survive
Mamma, cut me deeper
If I'm bleeding, I'm alive
When I'm bleeding, I'm alive
When I'm bleeding, I'm alive
When I'm bleeding, I'm alive
