about
from the forthcoming album- CROSSED EYES AND MIXED MOTIVES
lyrics
You can't hear my heart, quiet as ashes falling
Not like at the start, we were eagles soaring
The callous step once undertaken came to bear
Obdurate, on the one who least deserved to feel it there
There were no words to give voice to what went on inside
The saddest thing I'd ever seen was the look in our boy's eyes
From strength to strength, through it all we flew
Convinced that we'd always be me and you
But there is one thing that I can't see-
If it meant as much to you, how could you trample on this?
You can't hear my heart, quiet as ashes falling
Not like at the start, we were eagles soaring
What'll I tell our boy when he asks where the love went?
This is what it means to be painfully, a parent.
