Matthew Fowler - The Grief We Gave Our Mother

I'm Still Trying

Ohh, ohh
Ohh, ohh
Ohh, ohh
Ohh, ohh

My mind it sings of the memories
How they tug and cling
I lay listening

I could touch my past
Feel the heavy air
Hear the branches scratch
I lay looking back

I remember when I used to drive right over
I remember when you used to pull me closer
I was traded for a cigarette
In a bed you shared with an older friend
I remember all the years I yearned for closure
I'm still trying

Ohh, ohh
Ohh, ohh
Ohh, ohh
Ohh, ohh

And I wish I knew
Why I barely call
Why I'm short with you
I shut my eyes and kid you grew
So I've learned with time
All the bonds you build either live or die
And I've come to carve away my pride
'Cause I remember when you used to call me brother

I remember when you used to climb on my shoulders
We would lay out in the sun to dry
Have a heart to heart from time to time
I remember all the grief we gave our mother

Ohh, ohh
Ohh, ohh
Ohh, ohh
Ohh, ohh
