Mother Father Lyrics by Holy Wars

Mother Father

2017

[Verse 1]
I don't know where I belong
Preacher tells me to go home
I'm a force to reckon with on my own
Now an orphan all alone

[Verse 2]
Your love is waiting in the light
I call to you and kiss the breeze
No, they won't know your name but I
I know you were everything to me

[Chorus]
Mother, Father, life's a little harder
Without you by my side
Mother, Father, the world's a little colder
Everybody says they care
But they haven't got the time

[Verse 3]
Scars that lay there in their place
Memories of failed escapes
But the turbulence kept me awake
I'm far too numb to be afraid

[Chorus]
Mother, Father, they're afraid to ask me
For fear of the uncomfortable truth
Mother, Father, they are moving faster
But I'm just standing still
Waiting here to feel you

In the Saturday rain, Saturday rain, Saturday rain
Fell heavy on me
Saturday rain, Saturday rain
I was calling your name
When I fell to my knees
When I fell to my knees
When I fell to my knees
I was calling your name
When I fell to my knees

Now there's a Holy War in me
There's a holy war in me
There's a holy war in me
Holy war in me, holy war in me, holy war in me
Now there's a holy war in me
Holy war in me, holy war in me, holy war in me
Now there's a holy war in me
Holy war in me, holy war in me, holy war in me
Now there's a holy war in me
Holy war in me, holy war in me, holy war in me
Now there's a holy war in me
