Mother

(álbum: Tales From The City - 2008)

Mother, I feel like all my days are numbered.
Mother, I need some redemption.
I remember when you took me down by the city lights,
We used to stare at the red-painted sky.

You can cry; you can crawl;
You can blame anyone every time you are up to no good.
You can swallow your pride; you can unchain your mind;
But I'm here to make sure that you still got the will to carry on.

Mother, I came home to surrender.
Mother, I stand accused and I faulted.
I watch all of our pictures fade on the wall.
My eyes are empty like never before.

You can cry; you can crawl;
You can blame anyone every time you are up to no good.
You can swallow your pride; you can unchain your mind;
But I'm here to make sure that you still got the will to carry on.

Someday, someday you'll see
Time changes everything.
Someday, someday you'll see
There is nothing to fear.
Please don't you shed no tears.

You can cry; you can crawl;
You can blame anyone every time you are up to no good.
You can swallow your pride; you can unchain your mind;
Every time you are up to no good.
You can cry; you can crawl; you can blame anyone;
But I'm here to make sure that you still got the will to carry on.
