Mother

Mother I am weak and I'm on my knees Shadows they are crawling to scratch at my feet Slowly I am dying to knock on your door To tell you I am sorry for just letting go Now I'm running, I'm running Away from the pain Now I'm running, I'm running Away from the shame When I was a young boy running amuck You gave all I could ask for and all I would need You kissed me on my head and put me to sleep You showed me what it meant to feel with my heart Now I'm running, I'm running Away from the pain Now I'm running, I'm running Away from the shame Now I'm slowly erasing, the wounds that you tore Now I'm slowly replacing, the warmth in my soul
