Mother

"give me love, or leave me alone" 

I keep it down in my heart, and I keep on moving along. Give me love or leave me alone. 

There's a few things we have to burn. Set our hearts ablaze. The skyline burned in reds I've never known. 

Lord, wont you leave me? Leave me just like this, cause I belong to the ground now. I want no more than this. Can you protect me from what I want the most? The love I let in. 

When the sun hit the earth, I left this place. I went up so high that it was impossible to fall, although I thought about falling the entire time. Some things you let go in order to live. 

So much time on the other-side, waiting for you wake up. Maybe I'll see you in another life, if this one wasn't enough.
