lyrics

Little girl, why are you crying?
Was it something that I said?
While others sleep, you lay there trying
To slow the thoughts down in your head

Was it the clothes that you wore?
Or the words like slut and whore?
Well it's you that I adore
The girl who doesn't care what others think of her

Sister now, why are you crying?
I admit our world is flawed
But tell your soul, there's no use hiding
Your confidence will force them to applaud

Was it the clothes that you wore?
Or the words like slut and whore?
Well it's you that I adore
The girl who doesn't care what others think of her

It's time to go back to the place we were before
Little girl, what are we crying for?

Mother mother, why are you crying?
You know I can't take seeing you sad
And mama mama, there's no denying
That when tomorrow comes, it won't be as bad

Was it the clothes that you wore?
Or the words like slut and whore?
Well it's you that I adore
The woman who doesn't care what others take her for

It's time to go back to the place we were before
Mother mother, what are we crying for?

Little girl why are you crying?
Close your eyes and go to bed

Alec Sullivan recommends:

Totally for Really
by Mike Donahue

As usual with Mike, this collection of songs hits hard. It's such a great rock-based balance of feelings while keeping things relatively short, making me want to listen to each song 1,000 times. Alec Sullivan

Walking in a Wishing Well
by Lavender Suitcase

This band should be hugely popular. Soft rock with moments of epicness and a great soothing voice to top it all off. Listen to "Black Cats". Alec Sullivan

LIVE at Soapbox Sessions
by Jonathan Jacobi

Jonathan and I used to play at at an open mic in Encino, CA. His live performances are mind-blowing, and this short live album captures the experience as best as one can without being there. Alec Sullivan
