about

This brings in the other story that's running side by side – a change in character. This is from the mother's perspective and how she finds out about her son's death. It's the mother's ruin. She is informed about her son's demise by the authorities, he was just an innocent by stander. She mourns for him. All the lyrics are thoughts and words that she has contemplated through her struggle

lyrics

The same thing I did everyday,
Came home from work,
Made dinner for my son and I and then spoke about his day

A mother's always proud of her son,
Stays with him,
Not like his father who walked out on us

But everything changed when I saw the officer at my door
His words killed me,
When he told me you wouldn't be around anymore

I gripped at his feet, he looked at me
"Your son is dead"

He won't be around anymore
Death can be an honest thing,
Makes you realise what you've lost and what you had

His body leaves my porch, I lay alone.
"Why won't you stay with me?"

A broken mother, a murdered son

Monday the 4th: A day to remember.

Who would scar at his skin?
Who would pierce at his flesh?
You would take his life away
Who would scar his skin
Who would pierce his flesh
Who would
You would
Who would scar his skin
Who would mark his flesh
