Dear Mother - Ambleside

Dear mother, things are changing

Are you beginning to lose hope?

Approaching for so long, how will we stay afloat?

I’ve been holding on to my breath

But I’m starting to cave in

And you’re starting to realize

That we’re sick, that we’re broken

We both act tough, but were so soft spoken

You thought we were stronger than you

I hope you know I could never, I could never blame you

But all my life have I been taught to run away?

To block out the pain

We don’t have to fade away

Block out the pain

With anything, with everything

With all the pills you were swallowing

The endless times you’d drive away

Just hoping you’d forget the pain

But the same blood runs through my veins

But the same blood runs through my veins

But the same blood runs through my veins

And now I know, we don’t have to fade away
