Like a Motherless Child

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

So far from home

This was life and this was safer

All was strange and always stranger

I laid in hate but so much later

I'm never safe from all this danger

The demon's eyes and demon satyr

I was bait but what would bait her?

Don't know my needs, don't know my ways so

I hide my face, no way to face her

This was loss, this was name

This was my truth, this was no game

This was not hope, this was not sane

And from these broken places made

That was loss and this was later

I wanted less but nothing greater

I couldn't leave, I couldn't stay

Like a motherless child

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

So far from home

This was loss and this was later

Always hate but never hate her

I laid in wait but so much later

And never safe from all this danger

The demon's eyes, the demon satyr

I was bait, but what would bait her

Don't know my needs, don't know my ways so

I hide my face, no way to face her

This was loss, this was name

This was my truth, this was no game

This was not hope, this was not sane

And from these broken places made

That was loss and this was later

I wanted less but nothing greater

I couldn't leave, I couldn't stay

Like a motherless child

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

So far from home

So far from home
