She'll Never Stop

You got some bad news today
The kind that runs the good things away
Your ma's been locked up
In a hospital bed again

But you're the one who's shut in a cell
You fear there's just no way
In heaven or hell
To make it through the day
Without leaving the room
To cry

I can't say
That I have been there, too
But there's just this one thing
That I can promise you

If she isn't able
To pull herself on through
I know she'll never stop
Loving you

A silent sickness suffocates her
Somethin' that she never deserved
It eats away the mama you know
The one who's just too tired to show

The one who read you stories at night
The one who taught you wrong from what's right
And now you're sittin' watchin her fight
And it's wrong
Oh it's all wrong

And I can't say
That I have been there, too
But there's just this one thing
That I can promise you

If she isn't able
To pull herself on through
I know she'll never stop
Loving you

A shame to accompany
The tragedy
This song won't serve its purpose
It's kept to me
It rends my heart just to sing
It could send you off the edge you're walking

And I'm a coward and besides it's not my place
What suffering could I inflict with earnest good good ways?

Despite all that
What I say is true
I pray that you'll know it
After all that you go through
You'll make it through

And I can't say
That I have been there, too
But there's just this one thing
That I can promise you

If she isn't able
To pull herself on through
I know she'll never stop
Loving you
Oh, I know she'll never stop
Loving you
