Intro: I tuck you in ever so gently Still you cried and turned from me You stepped on my heart I forgave you just like mothers do From under your shoes I still carried you Soon my body will burn into ashes and dust And rain will turn all that glitter to rust One last pill for the pain Sit down, let me explain Why my bruises stay My child I know you never meant to These scars just won't fade away And I'm sure you never knew I give up, I give in Help December let a new year begin Take what's left and move on Fly away Be gone
