Headstone Epitaph - Mama lyrics

rate me

[Martin: a heavy riff expressing an even heavier message: child abuse.]

[vers:]

Mama would you listen to your son

would you listen to what I say

can't you see that helpless one

can't you see me how I pray

I'm afraid to tell you what I bear

say no word to no one

by god you swear

Mama do you know what I really know

do you know what I conceal

it is terrible and horrible

and no one can feel what I feel

I deny myself

and I deny my pain

my childhood turns

from sunshine into rain

[ref:]</i>

Mama are you blind

if only the father in heaven is with me

he gives me the answer to be

I wish he could not find my hide-out

if you're not at home

those bad times

if we are alone
