Momma
I left you here long, long ago
I left you here to let you go.
But the pain is still fresh
I cannot find rest.
This life is such a mess and i can't go back
I want to go back without going back.
I want to move forward without re-living it all.
I want to break apart the memories
I want to break this fall.
From the shivering, cold, emptiness that haunts me.
I left you there in hopes of finding myself
You follow within the depths of my soul
Is this bad for my health?
Why won't you sink like this sand?
When will your tide float out of me again?
I set you free like these birds, so FLY!!
Tell me why,
I tried.
And I cry.
I've failed,
I'm derailed.
Tell me why.
Because I miss you.
I left you here to let you go.
But the pain is still fresh
I cannot find rest.
This life is such a mess and i can't go back
I want to go back without going back.
I want to move forward without re-living it all.
I want to break apart the memories
I want to break this fall.
From the shivering, cold, emptiness that haunts me.
I left you there in hopes of finding myself
You follow within the depths of my soul
Is this bad for my health?
Why won't you sink like this sand?
When will your tide float out of me again?
I set you free like these birds, so FLY!!
Tell me why,
I tried.
And I cry.
I've failed,
I'm derailed.
Tell me why.
Because I miss you.
