Mother Love 02:59
I can’t turn away, I can’t blind my eyes She can’t do a thing right; she won’t get no love tonight Sentenced to a room, a mattress for a bed Writing down the ‘grown up’ words, swirling around her head Laid up against your skin and felt nothing, no mothering No arms around the life you gave Not fit to be that name, mother, other No arms around the life you gave You know you should care, mammies eyes and daddies hair But that’s not how it’s working out, those photo frames are bare A price to pay too much, ‘that girl’ is still a child A dented soul, a broken heart and sadness in her eyes Laid up against your skin and felt nothing, no mothering No arms around the life you gave Not fit to be that name, mother, other No arms around the life you gave No arms around Laid up against your skin and felt nothing, no mothering No arms around the life you gave Not fit to be that name, mother, other No arms around the life you gave.

Forgiveness is the word you crave and you won’t stop Until you hear that everything is alright, everything is ok And that’s the way it should be, but that don’t mean It wipes the slate clean, that everything’s forgotten gone, Things aren’t ok Because anyway you say it, say it, Anyway you paint it You can’t change the way it was, the way it was I’m not sure who it’s for, I’m not taking higher ground But moving on is leaving someone else behind “Practise what you preach” they say, and that’s been done Ironic ways because those who are those who know, And they don’t need another excuse Because anyway you say it, say it, Anyway you paint it You can’t change the way it was, the way it was You say and you pray with your higher ground Doesn’t make who you are when you’re looking down The way it was, is the way it is, We are, we love, we live Because anyway you say it, say it, Anyway you paint it You can’t change the way it was, the way it was

I won’t fall apart, the good and bad Won’t let this turn to rust And you, don’t write yourself off and turn to bones Your more than ashes fallen And these years spent wishing on another place Don’t close your eyes, you’ll miss it I am turning tide, I am broken heart Moving side by side, torn and tired, but standing by your side I am where I am, I’m all I can be now this time is mine, not being denied, won’t be denied I was saving love, but you can’t do that Must give it out to get some And you, don’t move so fast, don’t run away Your soul’s too big to carry I am turning tide, I am broken heart Blown away by this, not disgraced by this Holding on to it I am where I am, I’m all I can be now this time is mine, not being denied, won’t be denied

Big Wait 02:59
I know I’ll be waiting for the day when this, All comes crashing down And heated words will spill themselves out, out and all around But you won’t see that you should shoulder blame, in these years from now But I know I’ll keep it to myself because you’re not wrong, wrong! I got a big wait, for you won’t say, I got a big wait I’ll bite my lip and hold my breath because, you’re gonna come around And when you do, I don’t know where I’ll be, or if I’ll hear you out But I know I’m ok, alright, I am sure, although it won’t be long But I know I’ll keep it to myself because you’re not wrong, wrong! I got a big wait, for what you won’t say, I got a big wait And I am holding out for that day, you apologise, Not losing sleep not hanging on, not Waiting for that time I got a big wait, for what you won’t say, I got a big wait
