The Lost Son
Mother, mother what did you do
You bought me to this world of gloom
Father, father what words you said
When the world made me wish I was dead
"Get over it boy there’s worse to come"
Maybe for you dad, me I'm done
Done with this world of hurt and pain
I've had enough I will not remain
I’m going now with my life I part
I'll cure the pain of my bleeding heart
Mother, mother you cry so much
Oh how I long for your gentle touch
Father, father what do you do
You cry and say "son I love you"
I see you all and the pain I caused
I wasn’t thinking I never paused
I just did it I left you all
To cowardly I was to try and stand tall
I only thought of me, I didn’t ask for help
So selfish I was when I killed myself
Mother, mother I'm so alone
Trapped in between as cold as stone
Father, father can you hear this
To be alive is my only wish
No pearly gates, the were for me
Just a gloomy world, a fog-like sea
There is no colour where I now dwell
Just misty grey, yet it is not hell
I wander lost between two worlds
Watching as your years unfurl
This is my prize, the price I pay
For trying to take away my pain
I thought it would be better, I was too swift
When I gave away life, my precious gift
