Girls Against Abuse - Stay Strong For Mom (feat. Gabriela Warren)

This hallway inferno has
Been burning a twenty-four year flame
I walk by your window
A metaphor in vein
We refuse to clean the ashes
Under the fire you started
You can't let loose the cord
From yesterday's done and departed
But I'll stay strong for mom
I'll stay strong for mom
Tell myself to stay strong for mom
When our lies start cutting scars
But I'll stay strong for mom
I'll stay strong for mom
Tell myself to stay strong for mom
When our lives start falling apart
Set the gauze back on the cut
Wipe your hands clean of the blood
It's the hand that held you in vein
The burden of your DNA
Now we're on the cusp of feeling
Edging closer to the healing
But we're trapped under a war
Guilty of its killings
But I'll stay strong for mom
I'll stay strong for mom
Tell myself to stay strong for mom
When our lies start cutting scars
Is there anyone at all
Who puts the rivers in reverse
Shoves the words back in their mouths
Pumps the blood back in their skin
Because our tears have all fallen
Our bones have all been broken
In the face of a thousand wrongs
All I can do is
Stay strong for mom
I'll stay strong for mom
Tell myself to stay strong for mom
When our lives start falling apart
Apart
