mother died

the clouds rolled in today
now skies are grey
i can't go out and play
the rain is here to stay

it was a perfect day
such a perfect day
picture perfect day

i dress in black today
mother died today
the angels cried their hearts out today
their tears they won't fade

i am rock today
i am island the same
i don't feel no pain
you broke my heart the same
i could wallow in my own tears for hours
i could wallow in my own tears for days
i could wallow in my own tears for a thousand years
but i'd still feel the same

you picked me up, dropped me on the ground
faces stare as you cut me down
you point your finger but it comes back to you
you only see what you want to
you only hear what you want to
only believe what you want to
you only be what you want to
but i can't be what you want me to

you broke my heart
why don't you finish what you start?
