Mother

tell me of the blood in your veins

tell of the woes of your soul

Mother,

tell me of the blood in my veins

tell of the secrets

the burdens and the triumph

the wisdom of the snake

take me back

to the beginning

where you birthed your sun

tell me of the lovers

and tell me of the war

tell me

how many daughters

how many sons

how many lovers

before you came undone

tell me of your loss

and tell me of your gain

Mother

show me

the dark mysteries

what a woman

bleeds from her soul

tell of her sorrow

and show me how to weep

for mankind’s sake

teach me how to raise

the children of your womb

teach me to forget

teach me of the evil

woman

things we do

show me

how to love

for the sake of respect

show me

the secret lines

only you can have lain

show me

how you keep us in your blood

Mother take us back

to when you were queen

Mother take us back

to your evil ways

teach us how to dance

teach us to embrace

teach us how to pray

Mother take us back

to the beginning

Mother teach us once again

how to sing.
