I steal a look between the blinds
|
I unwind
|
she sleeps in comfort in my arms
|
She is plain but she is mine
|
Our child is silent but awake
|
I run my hands through his hair
|
I teach him manners and how to stick up
|
For himself when things get bad
|
|
I tell him son never through the first punch
|
And If you must fight, make it clean
|
|
SHIOLA, SHIOLA, will all be forgiven?
|
SHIOLA, SHIOLA, Am I strong enough to start again alone?
|
|
The taste of home is filling up my mouth
|
Is it wrong to love a family of ghost
|
Her door is open the windows are all up
|
She says "come inside"
|
|
I live alone more or less
|
I summon, child and happiness
|
Build them up from the dirt and clay
|
I have to believe that all will be forgiven
|
|
SHIOLA, SHIOLA, will all be forgiven?
|
SHIOLA, SHIOLA, am I strong enough to start again alone?
|
SHIOLA, SHIOLA, my heart is overflowing
|
SHIOLA, SHIOLA, with love and anger coiled into one
|
They take and take
|
But never get their fill
|
I try and try
|
But fail against my will
|
I wait and wait for that hand to sweep me up
|
And take me down that road
|
