mother you are worried
mother you are hurt
but trees are yielding
no they're not
but seas are easing
no they're not
but songs lost meaning
no they've not
why are you leaving
because I've had enough
some say (cry a river)
some say (shoot the moon)
some say let's show this world what we can do
mother you are angry
mother you are scared
but homes keep shaking
no they're not
but bones keep breaking
no they're not
but love keeps failing
no It does not
then what are you saying
no I've said enough
some say (meet your maker)
some say (enjoy the view)
