ben eales - oh mother lyrics

oh mother lyrics
mother, oh mother, how are you today
the rain patters down as the skies blend to grey
and as we hand over the smiles on our face
mother, oh mother, the words i await

i know things lately haven’t been simple
moirai seems to love to watch things just dwindle
and as they twist the fibres upon their spindle
mother, oh mother, we’re pushed by their thimble

oh, the storm pushes down, but together, we keep on moving, moving to shelter
we can’t stay long bеfore the hurricane sweeps us in
but mothеr, oh mother, the carnations fly and they tell her
why destroy love when love so rarely begins

mother, oh mother, the world is so daunting
the spectres of trauma, will they ever stop haunting
as my body slims and i shy away
mother, oh mother, you help me remain

we had our disputes, but we never argued
i never opened up, cuz i found it hard to
but you taught me to learn how to let myself breathe
you showed me my roots like a sacred rowan tree

and you’d bring down the moon if it’d cure me of pain
because you never want to see the whole cycle again
i know it’s not easy with everything past
but mother, oh mother, we’re nearly free at last
oh, the storm pushes down, but together, we keep on moving, moving to shelter
we can’t stay long before the hurricane sweeps us in
but mother, oh mother, the carnations fly and they tell her
why destroy love when love so rarely begins

mother, oh mother, is helping just trouble
the others were clear, but i am a puzzle
i lie in the moonlight of interlinked hearts
and i have to wonder if i am the scar

but mother, oh mother, you tell me i’m not
they may be louder, but you haven’t forgot
the fact that i’m quieter keeps me in your thoughts
i may not feel like much, but i still mean a lot

oh, the storm pushes down, but together, we keep on moving, moving to shelter
we can’t stay long before the hurricane sweeps us in
but mother, oh mother, the carnations fly and they tell her
why destroy love when love so rarely begins

mother, oh mother, the grass lifts me high
the disaster swept through us, but still, we survived
as i close my eyes and i make it to sp+ce
mother, oh mother, how are you today
mother, oh mother, how are you today
