Mother's Woe
Quickened by the lightning you were
I was there before your birth
I was there to wipe away your first tear
When this tragic world turned worse
I watched the sunrise in your newborn eyes
But you didn't flicker, you just swallowed thicker
I nourished you from inside out
Until you got your talons out
My blood, my blood
What am I gonna do with you?
Who are you hurting now?
To keep your path
You built with wrath
On spoiled ground
Damnation bound
What now? What... now?
Ooh, heavy on my heart when you were placed upon my chest
Soft curls caressed; cursed, not blessed
You're not your father in disguise
But you have stolen mine own eyes
To see, to be
Right where you be
What am I gonna do with you?
I was there before your birth
I was there to wipe away your first tear
When this tragic world turned worse
I watched the sunrise in your newborn eyes
But you didn't flicker, you just swallowed thicker
I nourished you from inside out
Until you got your talons out
My blood, my blood
What am I gonna do with you?
Who are you hurting now?
To keep your path
You built with wrath
On spoiled ground
Damnation bound
What now? What... now?
Ooh, heavy on my heart when you were placed upon my chest
Soft curls caressed; cursed, not blessed
You're not your father in disguise
But you have stolen mine own eyes
To see, to be
Right where you be
What am I gonna do with you?
