[00:16.59]O mother dear
[00:18.34]Look what you've done
[00:20.28]To your forlorn and once beloved son
[00:25.92]Why was I born at all?
[00:31.97]O mother dear
[00:33.94]I'm such a freak
[00:36.12]A mutant man, a woman underneath
[00:42.14]Why was I born at all?
[00:46.33]
[00:47.93]It's you I blame for all the shame
[00:51.93]This anguish and this aching
[00:55.92]The mirror turned against the wall
[00:59.91]Myself despised, forsaken
[01:03.64]*You say, "Beauty is within us, your mother knows"
[01:11.74]"There's a beauty that's within us, just like a rose"
[01:19.68]You say, "Beauty is within us, so let it grow"
[01:27.17]But it's grown so dark and ugly
[01:36.56]
[01:52.14]O mother dear
[01:54.24]I curse you so
[01:56.10]For breathing life into your wretched son
[02:02.08]Why were you born at all?
[02:08.18]O mother dear
[02:10.08]I love you so
[02:12.07]O please forgive this anger in my soul
[02:18.20]Without you I'm alone
[02:23.50]
[02:24.48]It's me who's been eternally damned
[02:28.29]Trapped inside this cage, a ruined man
[02:34.06]All damaged and depraved
[02:38.65]
[02:40.11]O mother dear
[02:42.31]This misery
[02:44.21]Has settled like a stain upon my skin
[02:50.18]-a vast unspoken sin
[02:54.69]
[02:56.60]And my mistake is much too late
[03:00.13]But your mistake was trusting
[03:03.98]That out of grief, a goodness comes
[03:08.23]And love comes out of lusting
[03:11.18]
[03:12.12]You say, "Beauty is within us, your mother knows"
[03:19.82]"There's a beauty that's within us, just like a rose"
[03:27.59]You say, "Beauty is within us, so let it grow"
[03:36.05]But it's grown so dark and ugly
[03:42.66]
[03:43.91]You say, "Beauty is within us, your mother knows"
[03:51.94]"There's a beauty that's within us, just like a rose"
[03:59.97]You say, "Beauty is within us, so let it grow"
[04:07.57]But it's grown so dark I can not see you anymore
[04:16.10]"O beauty is within us, mother knows"
[04:23.89]"O beauty is within us, like a rose"
[04:32.09]"O beauty is within us, let it grow"
[04:40.11]O mother dear, let me out of here!
