Mum II

Lyrics

Ma, you were in my sleep again Like a kaleidoscope Colors back in your face You looked at peace and beautiful I know those songs still hurt you Won't play them anymore Still can't say it back But there's love growing over the sore Can we start to bloom? Dreams of Asbury shores Chrysanthemums on the floor From those raspberry marks on your arms To the Irish guilt in your pores Oh, your soul is so war-torn And it breaks my heart to the core When you say that I'm all you adore I can't say it back But there's love growing over the sores I wish I was there Whеn he put his hands on you We werеn't speaking But I could've helped you out of that And broke you loose I'm so sorry ma I wasn't there to protect you If I saw him now I'd fucking kill him, I swear to God Can we start to bloom? Dreams of Asbury shores Chrysanthemums on the floor From those raspberry marks on your arms To the Irish guilt in your pores Oh, your soul is so war-torn And it breaks my heart to the core When you say that I'm all you adore I can't say it back But there's love growing over the sores Dreams of Asbury shores Chrysanthemums on the floor From those raspberry marks on your arms To the Irish guilt in your pores Oh, your soul is so war-torn And it breaks my heart to the core When you say that I'm all you adore I can't say it back But there's love growing over the sores But I love you like a summer storm Like our hammock Swinging on the back porch You and I, always the spiritual ones Got your brain, your eyes And some of your heart I'm a man now and I've healed from it all From the gravel scars on both of my palms No one tells you, but you're so beautiful Like those walks we'd take in Ireland parks Like when "Save Tonight" was still number one Like our drives together chasing rainbows But I love you and it's all good now Yeah, I love you and we're all good now
