I tuck you in ever so gently
Still you cried and turned from me
You stepped on my heart
I forgave you just like mothers do
From under your shoes I still carried you
Soon my body will burn into ashes and dust
And rain will turn all that glitter to rust
One last pill for the pain
Sit down, let me explain
Why my bruises stay
My child I know you never meant to
These scars just won't fade away
And I'm sure you never knew
I give up, I give in
Help December let a new year begin
Take what's left and move on
Fly away
Be gone
