Oh Mother Lyrics

Oh mother hold my hand along the road, sing your wordless song to the rhythm of our feet, the road it feels too long, i feel i might lose something sweet, oh mother please don't let it come out wrong, oh mother can't you see that i'm not strong, oh mother, stand beside me when i'm pounding on her door, with her yellow roses, please don't leave them there just dying, her goodbye echoes around the hallway down to me, please don't let me fall apart before i leave, oh mother can't you see that we're not free
Oh mother oh mother
There's nowhere to run when what's done is done, the blood just sits there on the floor and leaving can't erase it, i wish i could cut my shame away, all those hurtful pieces gone astray, i can't feel no absolution Oh mother oh mother
Oh mother pull the small ones from the floor, dull the rocket sound, let them feel sunlight once more, soothe the shattered, the fractured, with secrets too big for the small, oh mother help us take the wounded in, please show us all we're worth more than our skin
Oh mother oh mother
Oh maria oh maria
