Mother Mary

With every death comes a new life
Just look up at the stars tonight
Just looking right into her eyes
You know that things will be alright
From the moment you felt her breath
And accepted this was life and death
You said you're done from here on out
No longer young and full of doubt
'Cause you've laughed, you've lived, you've loved, you've cried
Every moment in your arms has died
And you're down upon your knees again
And you're praying this will be the end, but

She will understand, She will understand
You'll be forgiven
She will understand, She will understand
You try and you change it again, and again and again and again and again
She will understand

Take you lies and take your fate
Take 'em to their shallow grave
There's still a part of you to save
And she will keep on listening
As you pray to her one more time
For love and laughter, peace and life
Your broken heart will heal in time
Just believe in all her glory
And your back is up against the wall
How many times do you have to fall
Will you pray to Mother Mary again
Will this pain be the last of it

She will understand, She will understand
You'll be forgiven
She will understand, She will understand
You try and you change it again, and again and again and again and again
She will understand

With every death comes a new life
Just hold your head up high tonight
Just reach your arms up towards the sky
You'll feel her presence again
She will understand

She will understand, She will understand
You'll be forgiven
She will understand, She will understand
You'll be forgiven
