Mother Mary
Sometimes it is genuinely fun to write a lyric, sitting on a train on my way to an open mic last night with all other passengers staring inanely at their phones and blank looks on faces
Interested in how you view the 'story' what is your interpretation of the action?
Mother Mary. Draft. RogersonLB
V1
Got down on my knees
Putting both hands together
First time since I was ten
It really me helped back then
Gave such blessed relief
But these prayers just seem to disappear into the empty ether
Chorus
Mother Mary was just talking to your son
Asked a simple question but it seems he got the answer wrong
So asking you now, to get things right
Help me close these eyes ang get some sleep tonight
Mother Mary, ohhhh ohh mother Mary
V2
Grey Smoke just lingered
Just past the edge of these fingers
Noise kept reverberating
The flush of Blood rising
In total disbelief
Still seeing her laying silent pale and dead crumpled on the leaves
Chorus
Mother Mary was just talking to your son
Asked a simple question but it seems he got the answer wrong
So now I'm imploring you, to finally put things right
Cast away the devils and let me get some sleep tonight
Mother Mary, ohhhh ohh mother Mary
Bridge
Senior Sergeant closed his warrant book
Giving me the oh so sorry look
We're not charging you son
You did what had to be done
Chorus
Mother Mary was just talking to your son
Asked a simple question but it seems he got it all wrong
So asking you now, to put things right
Help me close these eyes ang get to sleep tonight
Mother Mary, ohhhh ohh mother Mary
