Mom & Dad - Live From Dublin

Mom and dad, when you saw me
When you'd seen how far I fell
Did it hurt? 'Cause God knows it hurt me
To make the tears in your eyes dwell

They say pain is worse when you're helpless
To someone you love is hell
And have you words for those moments?
Or is your silence how I tell
That you feel what I have felt?

See how I've grown from that strife
I'd play that role a thousand times
And sing these notes, I've found my voice

But if you questioned were you worthless
But each word you spoke held purpose
If you questioned were you worthless
Look at me

And I held my breath while you were breathing
Searching for new life
And in the dark those silent evenings
When I spoke, did you hear fight?
And I know you cried, you spoke in secret
You prayed with all your might
Without relent, you never weakened
You held me up each time

And I know that you felt worthless
But each word you spoke held purpose
If you questioned were you worthless
Look at me

Without you how, h-h-how
How, how, how, how
Without you how, h-h-how
How, how, how, how (tell me, could you sing that a little louder, please?)
Without you how, h-h-how
How, how, how, how (as loud as you can)

Without you how, h-h-how
How, how, how, how, how

And I know that you felt worthless
But each word you spoke held purpose
And if you questioned were you worthless
Look at me

Mom and dad, now you see me
And the distance that I fell
Thank you so much for singing loud
