|
Her suffering |
|
Comes from deep within |
|
She never found it in her soul |
|
And then the devil broke in |
|
And made himself at home |
|
Our father's eyes |
|
They've been paralyzed |
|
Found his love in a puddle of pills |
|
When he came home |
|
He better find her some help |
|
Before she dies alone |
|
Pretty darling |
|
Won't you figure out what's wrong |
|
Just show us a sign |
|
Cause mama it ain't your |
|
No it ain't your time |
|
To sit and wonder why |
|
But I won't back down |
|
Won't turn around |
|
Until I know you're alive |
|
His diamond eyes |
|
Made her his valentine |
|
Made a home in her blood |
|
And left her on the floor |
|
She tried harder this time |
|
Than she ever had before |
|
The light stood still |
|
The poison rots her will |
|
She looked out the window |
|
And said she saw the Lord |
|
But even God couldn't help her |
|
In this state of war |
|
Pretty darling |
|
Won't you figure out what's wrong |
|
Just show us a sign |
|
Cause mama it ain't your |
|
No it ain't your time |
|
To sit and wonder why |
|
But I won't back down |
|
Won't turn around |
|
Until I know you're alive |
|
Pretty darling |
|
Won't you figure what's wrong |
|
Just show us a sign |
|
Cause mama it ain't your |
|
No it ain't your time |
|
To sit and wonder why |
|
But I won't back down |
|
Won't turn around |
|
Until I know you're alive |
|
Dear mama show us a sign |
|
Please mama open your eyes |
|
So ma we know you're alive |
|
Please mama open your eyes |
