Mother Love Should Always Rule

There is nothing here for you My house, my dreams, my wife, my life There is nothing here for you You say I broke my ties with the great and good family of you Perhaps that’s what you see, perhaps… yes perhaps that’ll do I feel empty when I look at you There is no compassion coming from this fool for you You say I broke your heart and that a mothers love should always rule You don’t remember when I was lost and needed help from you? When I didn’t understand who I was or what that meant to you? You don’t remember… so convenient for you. My attempt… Suicide, oh that word scares you. And then you say that it would be better if I was dead and gone away from you Because of the embarrassment of a son who did not know what to do. So. So, there is nothing here for you.
