Mother say a prayer
for me
I can never know
what you've seen
I don't have
what you have
I don't seek
what you seek
but I'd never
take it away
Mother pray for me
Mother will you talk
to me
I don't know the tongue
in which you dream
Somewhere in the middle
theres a pidgin
that we speak
but is it enough
Don't give up
Mother pray for me
Mother are you near
to me
We never let our
colors bleed
but I would
like to know you
and I want you
to know me
Do we still have time
Can we try
Mother pray for me
Mother are you all
at sea
Battered by the waves
of grief
Are you lost without her
Do you hope
that we could meet
If I could be
saved one day
Mother pray for me
Mother don't cry
for me
I have done enough
injury
I wanted to hurt you
for the hurt you
made in me
and I
know that I'm
why you cried
Mother pray for me
Called off the search
for evidence of an after
Decided I'm fine without
Forever is this right now
but one day
if you arrive
Just send me
a small sign
I don't need the
proof of place
Just tell me you
got there safe
Mother are you there
It's me
I know I didn't call
last week
The longer
that I hold off
the heavier it seems
and I never know
what to say anyway
Mother pray for me
