“my mother wants me dead”, like many of her other songs, are about her drug use. Here, it also centers around paranoia.

Everybody thinks they know things

[Chorus]
These drugs are fucking with my head
I think my mailman is a fed
I know my mother wants me dead
'Cause she hates the smell of cigarettes
These drugs are fucking with my head
I think my mailman is a fed
I know my mother wants me dead
'Cause she hates the smell of cigarettes
[Verse]
I can't trust you, I know you bleed blue
I shouldn't tell you, but nobody likes you
[Pre-Chorus]
Everybody thinks they know things
But nobody can say they know me
[Chorus]
These drugs are fucking with my head
I think my mailman is a fed
I know my mother wants me dead
'Cause she hates the smell of cigarettes
These drugs are fucking with my head
I think my mailman is a fed
I know my mother wants me dead
'Cause she hates the smell of cigarettes
[Outro]
She hates the smell of cigarettes
I'm pretty sure she wants me dead
I'm pretty sure she wants me dead
