From MOTHER OF DREAMS MAKE US ALIVE EP by The Oddmen
lyrics
THE SHALLOW END
Mother why have you forsaken me
Shivers that wouldn't awaken me
And I'm trying not to listen to them
But whispers are making their way through my ears
(Hold on it's a)
poison you spread
Running round in my head
And I can't find an end or a reason
(To care)
You're unconcerned and constant in grief
And the sin you disguise
Still echoes in dead girl's eyes
The mirror dies
And your child cries
I'm left aside
But noone tries
To break these lies
Oh Mother looks like the book is achieved
Can't tell if it's some death or a relief
And before the last page is written
I'd rather stick a knife deep in your breast
Mother of dreams curtain of lies
