Mama

[Martin: a heavy riff expressing an even heavier message: child abuse.]

[vers:]
Mama would you listen to your son
would you listen to what I say
can't you see that helpless one
can't you see me how I pray
I'm afraid to tell you what I bear
say no word to no one
by god you swear
Mama do you know what I really know
do you know what I conceal
it is terrible and horrible
and no one can feel what I feel
I deny myself
and I deny my pain
my childhood turns
from sunshine into rain
[ref:]</i>
Mama are you blind
if only the father in heaven is with me
he gives me the answer to be
I wish he could not find my hide-out
if you're not at home
those bad times
if we are alone
