Mama - Lili Haydn

Mam, now I know why you held on

Magic held you captive in it’s song, captive intit’s song

Mama, I never understood your plight

You waited for the sweetness in his eyes, sweetness in his eyes

Mama, tell me how you found yourself outside your compromise

Can you lead me toward a light to keep me from self-sacrifice

Mama, sorry if you stayed for me

You overlooked injustice for the peace, injustice for the peace

Mama, why do we go back for more

Even when we’re curled up on the floor

From blows that we’ve endured

Mama, tell me how you found yourself outside your compromise

Can you lead me toward a light to keep me from self-sacrifice

Mama, I became what I abhor

Acting out to even up the score, to even up the score
