her and her songs

i love you, mama.


been a long time waiting
gaze upwards to the sky
spent so long hating
never had a good reason why

i still don't know
who i am or who to live for
but from here, i go
on a search for something more

forget who i was
he's just not here
and that is because
she took all my fear

i knew she wasn't too far gone
when she showed me those songs
i knew she had some sense
that her words weren't just dense

i've had time to think
to come to terms
been brought to the brink
and each time i still learn

parts of me die
but i keep going on
and the whole reason why
is her and her songs

music can move you
and music brings change
even if i'm lost and don't know what to do
i'm still so close in saving range

parts of me die
but i keep going on
and the whole reason why
is her and her songs

i owe her it all
because she was there
to help break my fall
but i didn't care

threw a huge fit
just so i could rebel
it all came back
and my ass it sure bit

part of me died
and that is no lie
but she brought me life
and that is all why

i owe it to her
and all of her songs
cause despite being my worst
she stood by me all along
