[purpledancer22]

i absolutely love this song!! very touching!! -33

[donatello7777777]

LOVE THIS SONG! <3

[bestemore]

<3

[TheKatieBrain]

Does anybody know where I can get an edited/clean version of this song to dance to?

[tweety660]

It is "Ask me why he scares me" not she. But thanks for the rest of the lyrics!! :) I love this song!

[KevsMusicCorner]

@tweety660 One time she says "he" the other she says "she" ..... Unbelievable song none the less. :)

[1withwolves]

@KevsMusicCorner at one point shes talking about being afraid of her father but the second time it shows that shes afraid of her mother as well,

[egnieannie]

Omg, this song is soo powerful, it makes me cry, especially when the kids start to sing.

I love Maria Mena. It was an honour to see her live a few years ago

<33

[xxMchii]

You will always be the bitter, saddest part of me..

[MyFunaddict]

i think what makes her so good is her voice, how she makes it so her words come to life....not just saying words for us to sing along to

[BAMitsNatalie]

theres so 3:56 in this vid lolol

like if you noticed and also if you cried when you first heard this

[tabhorian]

This woman has a beautiful voice, without all that warbling crap that got so popular in the last 20 years. This is a refreshing change.

[Imtotallymyself48]

I love this song.

The lyrics actually mean something.

It´s one of my favourite songs!

[VxVacidrainVxV]

oh my..i love this song to pieces...its exactly how my life is...

[Deeeeee645]

so much better then lyrics on the radio now a days. Like seriously whats better?

"Ask she scared me

Do you wanna know I'm angry?

Can't you tell I'm crying?

Mother I don't feel good' Or 'Feeling so fly, like a G6"

....i think the question speaks for its self :p

[KamichamaKiku]

One of my favorite songs ever :)

Beautifully sung.

[ankaABNORMAL]

Ask me why she scares me, do you wanna know why I'm angry? Can't you tell I'm crying. Mother I don't feel good

[minnieweini]

very nice and special

[purplestreakpunk]

This song is AMAZING. I love it so much.

[insertBoringName]

love itt

[northatlanticjewel]

In the first chorus it should be, "Ask me why he scares me."

And the last chorus is, "Ask me why she scares me."

<--- picky :c sorry for pointing them out~

[xxdemi101]

Wow great song and great voice!

[MIKETOBE]

I really love this song!

[Ellarrr123]

she sings about real things.

[Scullyist90]

This song reminds me of my parents divorce :(

[chlorinesaver]

Wow thats nice. Maybe move along next time it is not what you are looking for like a decent person

[Rebecza]

@ImplementDestruction I'm sorry, but what's your problem?!

[TearWorkshop]

Dude. What the fuck. Get a grip.

Also, it's possible for more than two things to have the same title.

[QBurt0EesCewl]

@ImplementDestruction Dude. Simmer down, buddy.

[hobbeslva]

@ImplementDestruction Woah there turbo... calm down...

[bazzz4feyenoord]

at the first chorus it is:

"Ask me why HE scares me"

[sunpainting]

oh. shit. the lyrics! :O wow

[lorensoosan]

it is: why HE scares me ;)

very good song! : D

i'm gonna make a choreography on it :3.

[MsCuraB]

PLS can somebody tell me a song of hers when she's belting out instead of singing low throughout the whole song!!!

[choppa86400]

We played this at a concert this weekend.

[loveleigh4ever]

This is one of those songs that are almost hard to listen to. I mean, I've heard sad songs before, but when you hear how stripped off and geniune her voice is, and you can tell that the lyrics are more or less her diary from when she was a kid... It's so true and it gets under your skin, it's unbelievable!

[emoly1994]

"How could he leave you, could he fuck that whore he left you for."

Best line ever.

[ThePianosKeys]

The lyrics are kinda wrong

in the first part where she goes like "Ask me why he scares me"

you put in she...

probably a typo since there's a mistake in the same stanza later in the song.......

love this song , I can relate to it in a few ways

[XxDeadParrotxX]

I don't understand why she isn't on the lips of every person in every country. She has the most incredible dynamic voice and her lyrics are always so potent and memorable. I've never heard anyone who writes the way she does, she puts things in such a diverse way. I LOVE HER!

[MarliesInAlmere]

Love maria mena

Your girl's in the bathroom washing her hands again

Why doesn't she eat?

i love that line!!!

[HechenbergerLaura]

such a great, great song... does anyone have the chords, scaling...???

[shannenbannon]

i loove this song so much! kim thomas dance project is competing with a amazing dance to this song!!

[gothicagirls]

Could someone explain to me...? It tugs my heart and it certantly stands out but im not sure i get the message ):

[SilverQueen]

It's the story of her life. Her parents' divorce, her mother's abuse, her eating disorder, and how it's all scarred her for the rest of her life.

[Jannielovesanime]

Its her life story, her parents divorced and this is like a letter to her mother.

[carlodeen]

The Cause and Effect album is coming out in the UK in April. All this Time will be out on March 29th as a single. Cannot wait. Power Trip Ballad needs to be the next single!!!

[DelaneyPaige13]

Beautiful tone...

[mft]

this need to be a single.

[EmmySmiley]

this song is amazing. i love almost everything she sings. but this one the most. i love her. i cry at the chorus.

[Andra0001]

I love this so much.

[snakesmyle]

This song tugs at my heart. I can't get it out of my head. It's so beautiful.

[passionpassion321]

I love everything about her music. Especially the lyrics.

[natamandaleesa18]

id reverse this

i could easily sing this to my father for all eternity

[Katiindahood]

her songs are gettin better and better : )

[oddxxxobsessions]

I just spent all day and night for 2 days listening to every song I could find of her's. This song really sticks out to me. I can't relate to the family horrors, but my heart breaks for her and for anyone who can relate to this. *hugs*

Anyway, this song is just so...I don't even know how to explain. It just gets me. She's incredible.

[lilPuNkluver]

<3

love.

[NiceView23]

this is an amazing song.. can't believe this is the first time i've heard of is..

amazing Maria Mena

[EmmySmiley]

she is such an amazing singer. i love her music so much

[DasKathie]

I love it!

Her voice is wonderful...

[Spikesfeet]

can totally relate. when my parents divorced I always thought that in our family it would be different. that my parents could actually behave like adults and not turn it into a mud-slinging contest...

some things are just not meant to be heard by daughters and sons...

[PinkFreakLady]

Die Stimme von Maria Mena is soo geil .

[hapandleonard1]

Stimmt!

[Liiebele]

i love this song about everything <3

[schnacker41]

bet youre german huh? ;)

[tywill10]

Maria Mena is incredible...she translated pain & anger into art.

[ecdact]

It's scary how much I can relate to her songs.

[sptfire1]

it cuts like a knife ,wonderful song

[WoooSnake]

amazing song

[Jessicalmovies]

you got the lyrics wrong

[shmalirah]

No she didn't.

[elisa90200]

I like it:D

[KiyaxLove]

Mommy loves you

I'm just tired of you and your brother's shit

And you know I didn't mean to hit you

But you were asking for it

This reminds me of my situation.

It started when my brother was born, ..

10 years ago.

But it's less now.

I love Maria Mena!

I'm from Norway too ^^

[ReowOreoBlizzard]

I'm so obsessed with this song ...its on repeat XD

[Innergoth333]

OMG! I can relate to this song soooooo much.

My parents are married, but my dad was in jail for 11 years when I was going up... I think that's why I have really bad coping skills.

[ShawnMichalesSexyBoy]

This is such a amazing song

[jassii1994]

I'm just tired of you and your brother's shit

;)

[Niickjuhhh]

I'm just tired of you and your brother's shit

I'm just tired of you and your other shit

which one is right?

[Wat0the0french0toast]

Its the brother one. It makes more sense and it doesn't even really sound like other.

[SkreanNaym]

You can hear her brother singing in the back at that line. and the line after.

[imthegreenfaiiry]

you and your brother's shit

[The5Aspargus]

She wrote this song because her parents got divorced and she was depressed and got an eating disorder, that is what makes the song so strong its real ;D

[MsWeepingwillow]

it's

''the way in which I fear is SOLELY a reflection of you

the devastating CHILDHOOD of the powetrip you forced me through''

:)

[brenbren23]

I identify with this song , i love it !!

[MIDNIGHTHOPEY]

love. maria mena is amazing, i just wish her stuff was on itunes!!

[HDW92]

Amazing song. There aren't many singer these days who can make such powerful songs.

[mrjoko1985]

cudownie :)

[nunzonenunzone]

Maria je bent geweldig

[MadeMeLobke]

I love this song !

[OMGITSAIJO]

Very touching; her earthy singing style combined with lyrics from the heart make her a very accessible and beautiful creature.

[ecdact]

one of the most profound songs on this album.

it gives me shivers. the lyrics are so chilling.

[Ashicakes]

I hate how sometimes when I go to push the up arrow, I accidentally push the down arrow :(

[3eliise3]

WOW!

[iamlorascoldsweat]

The kids singing at the end is just so poignant, because it makes you realise how young she was when she had to go through all that shit.

[ecdact]

i love the ending. the choir singing makes this song.

[ChristovDell]

It's "now let her in on how he's the devil," not "now littering on how he's the devil"

[Rebecza]

Changed it!:D

Sorry btw.

[slagelse77]

This song reminds me a bit of my childhood. Me stepfather was violent, and Maria Mena says what i mean about my stepfather with the words: `You will always be the bitter, saddest part of me`.

In my situation i will say one more thing to him: `Good bye, i don`t wanna see you ever again`.

Thanks Maria for making this song, and put some words of my brain to paper.

I love this song!

[dimvdriel123]

hahaha!!

loveitsomuch<33

[moonlight2679]

Her songs remind me of some twisted part of my childhood that i can vaugely remember

[CJudge36]

Minor.. but here are some other typos.

Its...

"And you know I didnt mean to hit you"

and

"Ask me why she scares me.

Do You wanna know why I'm angry "

[Rebecza]

I didn't even noticed that. I'm sorry for my horrible songtext. Please comment if there are more typos or totally wrong sentences in it. And please enjoy the music. (:

[xJessie181x]

The "Mommy loves you

I'm just tired of you and your other shit " isn't right either. It's actually "Mommy loves you. I'm just tired of you and your BROTHER'S shit."

[Rebecza]

Changed it, thank you! XD

[Suus929]

Yeah I think Willoliam is right too

Beautiful song anyway :)

This is just so real, you can feel the emotions behind it

[vbfrapgrl323]

I love her songs. A lot of them are just so...true? if you will. She's amazing.

[mcrXninjaXyo]

Raw emotion. LOVE IT

[Willoliam]

The "could he fuck that hard" sentence is wrong. It's "Could he fuck that whore he left you for? [command]Get Revenge"

[Rebecza]

No you're wrongXD.

[MJuliCiouS]

No Willoliam is right ;)

[Rebecza]

Changed itXD. Sorryy!

[mickeythinksurcute]

yeah...you are right.

[VoiceFromSoul]

wow, i love the melody when she sings this! 'You will always be the bitter, saddest part of me' and of course the 'hahaha' lol=D

[ElineEvanescence]

This text is so honest, nothing she has left behind. She realy must had be going trough a very hard time. I love her song, it reflecting her pain she had. en probably still bothering a bit.

[Giinababeh]

shes truely amazing

like this song

xxx

[clocky86]

Fave song of the album so far. God, she has a talent and an honesty I adore and respect.

[ED0JD0DW]

I so adore this song ^^

[FanpireBella]

I love this song. I love this album! Maria has grown a lot. Her previous songs have been a little too popish for my taste. but these lyrics are so honest and real! she's said that she'll probably never make an album like this one again. there are just too many emotions involved. I admire you, Maria.

[slagelse77]

This text are the most honest i ever have listen to, and readed.

It`s realistic, and a have been through alot of bad family stuff. I understand Maria Mena. She is strong when she can share this with us. Thank you, Maria.

[MissSephira]

I like the "hahaha". It makes is better in some way, and OMG some paretns she has had

[buddytheoc]

lol? It's something of the most unique and best I've ever heard in a song...

[Gureishia]

jap, totaly agree ;D

[catrienmaxwell]

That's my favorite part!!

[Apfelkirsc]

I like it, it´s so much more grown than her former abums. The the lyrics are so honest, it´s amazing.

[SophXD]

I love it when she says "hahahaha" x*D

[jean100190]

I so LOVE this song.

kinda reminds me of something..

[musicman0425]

i hate that shes so sweet and so vulgar

BECAUSE I LOVE HER VOICE

but her stuff is so vulgar

but then again ITS SOOOO GOOOD

[strangelittlebeing]

It's not vulgar, it's realistic.

She used her music as a vent for her own emotions, including her sufferings.

Sometimes there ain't a way to sugarcoat stuff, and that's what I respect and admire about Maria is that she DOESN'T sugarcoat anything at all.

She's a beautiful voice, and such a strong person ^_^

[musicman0425]

i completley agreee

i understand why its just i wouldnt want my parents to jam to this song with me...

i loovvve this song

ALOT

and that is very true she doesnt sugarcoat anything

[bextor999]

@ nathanberrinma

Read the Biografie of her, then you will know what the Song is about.

[nathanberrima]

i think it is about her parents splitting up cause it happened when she was nine also i dont she got along that well with her mum cause she went to live with her dad when she was 13

[nathanberrima]

maria thats 2 bad words in 1 year what have you become lol i love this song

[naaanci]

My God this is amazing!!!

[TheNameIsDeona]

Is this song about her parent's divorce when she was young?

Cuz the lyrics are kinda harsh for such an awesome song :P

[rinora1]

great song :D

[Dixieboy20]

[majjken89]

best song ever, must buy her new album

[donatello7777777]

[mels2610]

she reminds me of alanis morrisette a little, how her lyrics are so personal

[dangirms]

I fucking love her new album,

i love every single one of her songs

which is very weird and rare for any body.

but esp. for me

I can't get enough!

Love it!

[StrangeRapunzel]

I love mena so much but cant find her cds anywhere :S why is it that i only found her through the sad song channel?

[enidluna]

wow this song really shows how much her childhood affected her.her parents split up when she was 9 and she had depression and eating disorder but she became one of the greatest most sincere singer/songwriter there ever was.truly.

[0SlytherinPureBlood0]

the lyrics r kinda seriously off

[GodinX]

I saw her in the Oosterpoort in Groningen, last friday. She was so beautiful, end she sang also wonderful! :)

[ktrocksmore]
