Come close, you pretty thing
I'll give you everything you want and need
I'll cater for all of your greeds
These poems fell on you like
Rocks from the mountain top
And his charms and good looks caught you like a hook
Didn't let you go and so the love did grow
Yeah, who could know what would follow?
In the light of your youth, you gone and fell in love
On a bitter winter night, you gone and soon gave birth
To a cold crying child with demons frozen in his head
Mother, you know the rest
Sleep tight now little dove and
Rest easy in my arms, you can squeeze my thumb
With your little white palm
I'll love you till the day I die
I'll save you from the burning fires of this world
And turn ashes into pearls
It was you who spoke these words so true
But the fire is still alive and your words have died
In the light of your youth, you gone and fell in love
On a bitter winter night, you gone and soon gave birth
To a cold crying child with demons frozen in his head
Mother, you know the rest
Mother, you know the rest
Mother, you know the rest
Mother, you know the rest
Well, I don't blame you, I don't
Damn I love you so
And I want you to know
I love the grass beneath my feet
And I love the air that I do breathe
But it's choking me now
And the grass has turned brown
And I'm praying ma
And I'm screaming ma
Help me now
Save me somehow
Mother, you know the rest of this little story
Yeah, everything you told me
The truth and lies, the bible of life
That's turned into dust beneath my feet
On these broken bleeding streets
Of this world you've given me
To care for and to seed
The times I've laughed and the times I've cried
The love I've had, the love denied
The hurt I gained, the hurt I gave
To those who tried to help and save me
From myself and from them too
The blackened sky that once was blue
The rope that's tightened around my neck
Mother, you know the rest
Mother, you know the rest
Mother, you know the rest
Mother, you know the rest
