Oh mother, can you hear menCan you hear me nownDid you die alone and afraidnThat no one knew the painnThat still remainednInside your breast this nightnInside this holy placenA place into the voidnnCan you hearnHear me now as I callnI'm calling you herenI can't explainnExplosionsnAnd the wound in my heart todaynI'm killing myself with drinknI'm killing myself to thinknnI didn't tell you I carednCan you hearnI needed to saynTo let you knownI felt your painnnI'm calling your name to let you knownThat I'm sorry for the shamenDisguised as blamenAnd the hurt and painnAnd the love I couldn't saynThat I want to say nownnOh peace, let there be peacenIt's beautiful herenThere is safety in my earsnIt's wonderful to be with you
