Once
Once she was there, and she believed in me.
Once she would hold me close and rock me off to sleep.
Once she would tell me that everything would be all right.
Once she believed in me, no matter what I said or did.
Once she would protect me from the monsters, and all the bad people.
Once she could protect me from the monsters and all the bad people
Once she loved me,I know cause she used to tell me, now I don't know
She don't believe me when I tell her things are all wrong
Once I loved her but now I can't talk to her cause she gave up on me.
Once she was my mom, now she is only a passing shadow on my mid.
