She Knows

Having to witness the divorce of his parents, this is a song dedicated to his mother and reflects the strong bond that they have.

What’d you doing alone
Are you scared now
Crying on the bedroom floor

Don’t you know that she’s praying
In a bedsit
With her back glued to the wall

I know its bleak but in a few years
You’ll be fine just on your own
Like other pieces of the world

I’ll be fine, she knows
I’m not going through this on my own
I’m alright, she knows
I’m the yield of her blood after all

She’s the one,
Who’s fighting all her battles all alone
Does she know?
Her worth at all

Time has been cruel to you
He’s a vandal
And he’s messed with all HER work.

Be it dusk, in the light
You’re left a soldier
The shadow of one’s own sacrifice

I know its bleak but in a few years
You’ll be fine just on your own
Like other pieces of the world

I’ll be fine, she knows
I’m not going through this on my own
I’m alright, she knows
I’m the yield of her blood after all

She’s the one,
Who’s fighting all her battles all alone
Does she know?
Her worth at all

Flying a kite by the beach
And seeing your face in the water’s memory
Leaving was alright for me
I couldn’t have written a better escape sheet

You brought a knife to a gun fight
At 20 and you died
In place, came a woman who knew
She was battered and bruised

But lived because she loved you
And she knew,
That one day you’ll walk in her shoes

And you will be

You’ll be fine
She knows
You’re not going through this on your own
You’re alright, she knows
You’re the yield of her blood after all

She’s the one,
Who’s fighting all her battles all alone
Does she know?
Her worth at all
