Album: The Woman's Boat

Death

oh mother, can you hear me
can you hear me now
did you die alone and afraid
that no one knew the pain
that still remained
inside your breast this night
inside this holy place
a place into the void

can you hear
hear me now as I call
I'm calling you here
I can't explain
explosions
and the wound in my heart today
I'm killing myself with drink
I'm killing myself to think
I didn't tell you I cared

can you hear
I needed to say
to let you know
I felt your painI'm calling your name to let you know
that I'm sorry for the shame
disguised as blame
and the hurt and pain
and the love I couldn't say
that I want to say now

oh peace, let there be peace
it's beautiful here
there is safety in my ears
it's wonderful to be with you
