“Don't Tell My Mom” is the fourth song off of the EP Everything to Everyone.
== Background ==
“Don’t Tell My Mom” is an extremely personal song about the complicated relationships most people have with their parents. Reneé is real about hiding things from her mom to keep her from worrying. The track is a relatable acoustic melody that describes how we want our parents to be proud of us, not concerned or too in-the-know.
Rapp’s delicate voice delivers each lyric like a gut punch. “Don’t tell my mom/I’m falling apart/She hurts when I hurt/My scars are her scars…At least in her mind/Her daughter is fine.”
We all go through problems in life, and often if our parents/the people who care about us aren’t already aware of the thing we’re going through, we choose to hide it from them. Reneé acknowledges this fact, and does not push us to be better. She just reminds us that people in our lives really do care, if we’re struggling and trying to get out of something.https://genius.com/Renee-rapp-dont-tell-my-mom-lyrics
