Mother

Forsaken, I'm broken
My desire to take away these demons in my mind
I'm calling for your name, but I can only catch a silhouette of your smile
I've told you many times before
I've always had the answers for the pain and suffering
The lies you told, the pain I'm in
I told you I would take you there, away from all your frights and fears
Forget your misery, but the seasons change so rapidly
I'm taking one last look
At your picture slowly fading in the fire
I'm staring, at your name but there's a silence that looms inside of me, at your grave
It's like I just forgot to breathe, it sucks the light right out of me
I've lost before, but not I'm sure, you aren't the girl I thought you were
Two years have passed, and all I see: Your shadow always haunting me
Forget my misery, 'cause my feelings change so rapidly
I've contemplated this before
You took my hand and said no more
You took my eyes so I can't see
You filled my lungs so now I breathe
The dust and death beside your grave
As if it wasn't enough to save your life so many times
I've contemplated this before
You took my hand and said no more
You took my eyes so I can't see
You filled my lungs so now I breathe
The dust and death beside your grave
As if it wasn't enough to save your life so many times
So you stabbed me in the back, and I had to watch you die
