Pre-Empty Nest Syndrome - Chasing Victory

I’ve been thinking about something in our past

Words you said that were forgot

I don’t want to be a dime or a dozen child

A mother’s love should not be lost

Instead of storming out the door

You could turn around and look me in the eyes

I’m one of the three from two

Who never loved each other

So I know it’s hard but could you try

Show me a mother’s tender heart

Spilled out for her children

Call me your own to let me know

You never thought less of me

I don’t feel betrayed

I was just so scared of losing you

All the times you tried to hurt yourself

You only hurt me

Like a poet once said

«They'll tear your life apart

And call your failures art»
