Don’t Tell My Mom Lyrics – Reneé Rapp

[Intro: Reneé Rapp]
Daddy just cut your hair today, didn't he?
Yeah! Do you like it?
No, I cried
You did cry
I cried

[Verse 1: Reneé Rapp]
Sweetie, will you come home?
We're tracking your car
Who are you with? What are you on?
Pick up the phone
When I was young
My problems were her problems
Now, I don't wanna 'cause trouble at all
I don't want the call

[Pre-Chorus: Reneé Rapp]
Saying, "We're worried about you
We're worried about you"
Don't worry about me, just worry about you

[Chorus: Reneé Rapp]
So don't tell my mom, I'm falling apart
She hurts when I hurt, my scars are her scars
She'll talk to her friends, impress all of them
At least in her mind, hеr daughter is fine
Oh, pleasе (Please) don't (Don't) let (Let) her hear
I'm dying inside
'Cause she's dealt (Dealt) with (With)
This (This) for years
I got it this time

[Verse 2: Reneé Rapp]
I wait 'til I'm home
Cry in the shower for two to three hours
'Til the tears are gone
Then pick up the phone
Now when we speak
I lie and say I slept for eight hours
All seven nights of the week
She'll get to sleep

[Pre-Chorus: Reneé Rapp]
'Cause I worry about you, I worry about you
Don't worry about me, just worry about you

[Chorus: Reneé Rapp]
So don't tell my mom, I'm falling apart
She hurts when I hurt, my scars are her scars
She'll talk to her friends, impress all of them
At least in her mind, her daughter is fine
Oh, please (Please) don't (Don't) let (Let) her hear
I'm dying inside
'Cause she's dealt (Dealt) with (With)
This (This) for years
I got it this time

[Bridge: Reneé Rapp]
What you don't know won't hurt you (Oh-oh-oh)
Mama, I'll lie, just for you, no
What you don't know won't hurt you, oh (Oh-oh-oh)
Mama, I'll lie, just for you

[Outro: Reneé Rapp]
So don't tell my mom, she's wearing my heart
Her daughter might cry, but she'll be alright
