jordan owen (heavy metal) - vanishing mother lyrics

a child a heart and a man in the b+lls
the only other soul in these rancid walls
rots in the bed where your father slept
a fading bone bag that you have kept

[chorus]
what’re you gonna do
when she can’t say no?
what’re you gonna do
when she can’t let go?
what’re you gonna do
when she can’t take your pain?
what’re you gonna do
when only the body remains?
vanishing
vanishing
vanishing mother
vanishing
vanishing
vanishing mother
a puzzle of flesh locked out by the mind
left you cold in a world unkind
the only open path that you could find
lay [sic, ‘lays’] down the road most leave behind

[chorus]

she held you always by her side
closer still when father died
and as the gameworld laughed and jeered
and your autumnal ailings neared
the flaming creature you’d become
could not outshine things left undone
and so you brought her down the stairs
and smiled at her vacant stare
the fragments left inside her mind
assembled memories they could find
into a patchwork for her thoughts
to shield her from the love you sought
confused at first she brought you home
no voices called you to atone
she thought you were the ones before
you saw a brainless female form
alive in body dead in brain
unlike the ones that brought you pain
those puzzles you could never beat
you found in her a way to cheat
the others sensed that you were wrong
but this one’s sense were long gone
the love you could not understand
was finally laid into your hands
