Oh Mother
....oh mother....oh mother
in the past I have shown lack of care, disdain
caused you nothing` but a life so full of pain.
so don`t take your total destroying, armageddon revenge
into your child`s world, a darkness will descend.
for I was just uneducated, ignorant and now, I will pay
in a forever humanity destroying, belligerent way.
....oh mother....oh mother
I can see your teardrops, slowly fall
is it because, because of my wrong call.
so please don`t cry out loud in despair
for I`ve tried hard, to show that I care.
so as you cry out in terror and pain
hear me when I say, I`m sorry for my disdain.
...oh mother....oh mother
into your realm I have plundered, pillage and maul
now my actions have burn deep, deep into your soul.
I was blinded to your world full of hurt and suffering
now your dark rage is soul shattering, thundering.
raining down in a humanity destroying, affray
all because of my soul destroying, mistreating way.
...oh mother....oh mother
in the past I have shown lack of care, disdain
caused you nothing` but a life filled with pain.
so now I pray, I`m bent down upon bended knee
please forgive, hear my, my solemn plead.
for now I understand your deep, dark plight
I won`t let again the flame burn so bright.
