If anyone asked who my favorite singer was it will always be Lauren Aquilina. Her music sends chills down my spine everytime and her lyrics are so relatable. I wish more people knew of her and understood her pure genius. I like to listen to her voice before bed. It gives me a bit of peace. I am not alone. I wish I could thank her in person for just being who she is.
~ LYRICS ~ [Verse 1] There's tobacco in my sheets I know you won't be proud Always taught me not to be the kind of woman that I seem to be becoming now There's an empty bag of somethin' On the table by my bed Yeah, I know you wouldn't like it but It's the only thing that gets in [?] head [Chorus] So mama, I hope you understand 'Cause when daddy broke your heart, I held your hand I'm not a smoker or a drinker Just a crazy overthinker And I need a little medicine I hope your broken heart, it understands [Verse 2] Someone that I hardly know Knockin' at my door He's a pretty good distraction, but he's not even a fraction of the one before And if I'm being honest I'm starting to scare myself No, I hate to disappoint you but if I can't tell you, I can't tell nobody else [Chorus] So mama, I hope you understand 'Cause I watched you hiding tears when daddy ran Were you a smoker or a drinker? Just a crazy overthinker And I need a little medicine I hope your broken heart, it understands [Bridge] I swear, I'm sorry if I'm letting you down But did you ever feel how I'm feeling now? Can you tell me how you felt [?] now? Can you be my heroine? 'Cause God, I tried everything [Chorus] So mama, I hope you understand How you still raised up my brother to a man Were you a smoker or a drinker? Or a crazy overthinker? Did you need a little medicine? I hope your broken heart, it understands
the chorus changes. in the second chorus its “i’m not a smoker or a drinker” and in the final chorus the first line is “oh mama, i just hope you understand”
Lauren, I know you’ll probably never see this comment, but let me just say that this song is so beautiful. I’m so happy you could open up and write this masterpiece. Not everyone’s lives are perfect and this song needs to be so famous so people can understand that because of certain actions someone makes then there are consequences. You have made me cry, once again.
Proud of you beyond belief. From seeing you live in 2011(??) I've followed your story and your words. Much love Lauren, thanks for being the one who's music helped me through my tough times
first saw you play this in Seattle and have literally been waiting ever since. have had this song on repeat since last night, and I won't stop anytime soon.
Am the reproduction 657 and i know i'll be here again tomorrow, and the day after, and the day after that one, because this is amazing, for sure it's gonna blow up. Thank sasha sloan for bringing me here.

"I hope your broken heart can understand." 😔 Speaks volumes. She was there for her mother and now she needs her mother to be there for her.

I wish more people knew of her and understood her pure genius. I like to listen to her voice before bed. It gives me a bit of peace. I am not alone.

One thing I’ll always regret is that I freaking SLEPT on this TALENT for such A LONG TIME damn it’s time Lauren blows up
She deservess it
I don't know how she continues to make greater and greater songs, she never fails to impress. Possibly one of the best songs to come out this year.
The emotion throughout, but especially in that bridge, is incredible!
"can you be my heroin? Cause God I've tried everything else"
Geez that line got me
"I'm not a smoker or a drinker, i'm just a crazy over-thinker"
love your username XD
Love the song, hate the pain you had to experience to write it. Thanks for sharing.
ahhh i saw you play at sasha's show and i've literally been waiting for this to drop since its so gooooooood
~ LYRICS ~
[Verse 1]
There's tobacco in my sheets
I know you won't be proud
Always taught me not to be the kind of woman that I seem to be becoming now
There's an empty bag of somethin'
On the table by my bed
Yeah, I know you wouldn't like it but
It's the only thing that gets in [?] head
[Chorus]
So mama, I hope you understand
'Cause when daddy broke your heart, I held your hand
I'm not a smoker or a drinker
Just a crazy overthinker
And I need a little medicine
I hope your broken heart, it understands
[Verse 2]
Someone that I hardly know
Knockin' at my door
He's a pretty good distraction, but he's not even a fraction of the one before
And if I'm being honest
I'm starting to scare myself
No, I hate to disappoint you but if I can't tell you, I can't tell nobody else
[Chorus]
So mama, I hope you understand
'Cause I watched you hiding tears when daddy ran
Were you a smoker or a drinker?
Just a crazy overthinker
And I need a little medicine
I hope your broken heart, it understands
[Bridge]
I swear, I'm sorry if I'm letting you down
But did you ever feel how I'm feeling now?
Can you tell me how you felt [?] now?
Can you be my heroine?
'Cause God, I tried everything
[Chorus]
So mama, I hope you understand
How you still raised up my brother to a man
Were you a smoker or a drinker?
Or a crazy overthinker?
Did you need a little medicine?
I hope your broken heart, it understands
i think its "it's the only thing that gets him out my head"
Thanks good job
I think the second question mark part is "Can you tell me how you found a way out"
Not sure though but good job on the lyrics
the chorus changes. in the second chorus its “i’m not a smoker or a drinker” and in the final chorus the first line is “oh mama, i just hope you understand”
@@friendlydark in the final chorus it's actually "oh mama, I just don't understand"
Lauren, I know you’ll probably never see this comment, but let me just say that this song is so beautiful. I’m so happy you could open up and write this masterpiece. Not everyone’s lives are perfect and this song needs to be so famous so people can understand that because of certain actions someone makes then there are consequences.

(imperfect but functional) Chords:
Verse: G, Cadd9, Em, Am7 & repeat
Chorus: C, Em, Am7, G, C, Am7, C, Am7, G
Bridge: Em, Am7, C, Em, Am7, C, Am7, C
This song is so beautiful and means so much to me. I know my addiction breaks my mom, but its the only thing that keeps me sane.
Now this is what i wanted to hear. YOU. Keep it up Lauren and I look forward to your next song and until then i will enjoy this one.
i dont know why u dont have some subs, i iknow ur music for a long long time (6 years ago, maybe 7) and i love ur voice
How does this not have a million views? Lauren Aquilina is something so special and someday so many more people are gonna discover it.
giving me goosebumps every time i am listening to this song
Proud of you beyond belief. From seeing you live in 2011(??) I've followed your story and your words. Much love Lauren, thanks for being the one who's music helped me through my tough times
2013**
one of the best songs ever written. and i don't say that often
first saw you play this in Seattle and have literally been waiting ever since. have had this song on repeat since last night, and I won't stop anytime soon.
Saw her sing this live at the Trubador, such a beautiful song 💓 thank you Lauren for sharing, it's very relatable. I hope all is better for you now 🙏
THIS IS CRAZY MAN THAT SOME OF THE BEST ARTISTS ARE UNDERRATED
For me, this was one of those songs were, the more you listen to it, the more you fall in *love* with it. Love all of Laurens songs!
It is SO GOOD to hear you sing. Glad to hear new things from you.
This sounds like it takes a great emotional toll to create a song like this but I would love to hear more songs like these.
This hurts. Trying to kick cigarettes. 1 week clean, gonna try to keep it up.
addiction is a bitch and a half. im sending you good vibes, dude.
We believe in you! You’ve got this💛
I hope you're still going strong! I failed today, after a little more than a week
Nibor I’m sorry! I hope when you try again, you succeed 💛💛

This hits hard after a two year breakup. All that’s been in my head all day is “I’m not a smoker or a drinker just a crazy overthinker”
This singer is very underrated..
Found this on SoundCloud. Been listening to it nonstop since.
The last time something dropped this hard, my stomach gave up.
Does food addiction count. Cause I eat when I am sad. Literally.
Last time my depression got out of hand, I gained around 12kg of weight in a month.
Yes, it count. I hope you get better :( depression sucks
this is lovely
One thousand out of ten, beautiful song!
i love this song, and I love you sm! your songs always make my days better and i really appreciate you

LYRICS
[Verse 1]
There's tobacco in my sheets
I know you won't be proud
Always taught me not to be the kind of woman that I seem to be becoming now
There's an empty bag of somethin' On the table by my bed
Yeah, I know you wouldn't like it but It's the only thing that gets in on my head (?)
[Chorus]
Oh mama, I hope you understand
'Cause when daddy broke your heart, I held your hand
I'm not a smoker or a drinker
Just a crazy overthinker
And I need a little medicine
I hope your broken heart, it understands
[Verse 2]
Someone that I hardly know
Knockin' at my door
He's a pretty good distraction,
but he's not even a fraction of the one before
And if I'm being honest I'm starting to scare myself
No, I hate to disappoint you but if I can't tell you, I can't tell nobody else

So mama, I hope you understand
'Cause I watched you hiding tears when daddy ran
I'm not a smoker or a drinker
Just a crazy overthinker
And I need a little medicine
I hope your broken heart, it understands
[Bridge]
I swear, I'm sorry if I'm letting you down
But did you ever feel how I'm feeling now?
Can you tell me how you felt a way out?
Can you be my heroine?
'Cause God, I tried everything
[Chorus]
Oh mama, I just don't understand
How you still raised up my brother to a man
Were you a smoker or a drinker?
Or a crazy overthinker?
Did you need a little medicine?
I hope your broken heart, it understands
Absolutely gorgeous song, love it 💙

I love song:)
This is brilliant
I can't keep the tears in.
There's tobacco in my sheets
I know you won't be proud
You always taught me not to be the kind of woman that I seem to be becoming now
There's an empty bag of something
On the table by my bed
Yeah, I know you wouldn't like it
But it's the only thing that gets him out my head
Oh mama, I hope you understand
'Cause when daddy broke your heart, I held your hand
I'm not a smoker, or a drinker,
Just a crazy overthinker
And I need a little medicine
I hope your broken heart, it understands
Someone that I hardly know
Knocking at my door
He's a pretty good distraction, but he's not even a fraction of the one before
And if I'm being honest,
I'm starting to scare myself
No, I hate to disappoint you but
If I can't tell you, I can't tell nobody else
So mama, I hope you understand
'Cause I watched you hide in tears when daddy ran
I'm not a smoker, or a drinker,
Just a crazy overthinker
And I need a little medicine
I hope your broken heart, it understands
I swear I'm sorry if I'm letting you down
But did you ever feel how I'm feeling now?
Can you tell me how you found a way out?
Can you be my heroine?
'Cause, God, I've tried everything else
Oh, mama, I just don't understand
How you still raised up my brother to a man
Were you a smoker, or a drinker,
Or a crazy overthinker?
Did you need a little medicine?
I hope your broken heart, it understands
