Guiding her into dream time
Following lights in her eyes
This living behind's got her frightened
So I'm here and I'm working all night
How is she not breaking down?
Oh God I feel her shaking
Try as I might to provide her light
In the end it's she who's breaking
I'm holding the choice as she grows life from it's stem
Is it better to say not now when I'm trying learn: yes?
I'm dreaming of bouncing feet and your motherly smile
But when you're sleeping so far away I can't feel what's inside
How am I still holding on?
Oh God I hope I am holding
She'll try and describe what my strength provides but I fear my strength is failing
If I could change my mind
I would change
What's the change for the better
For a child who learns not to cry?
And to the boy who relies on his anger:
You'll survive but you won't feel exchange
