lyrics

Suffering the pain of being alone.
she was raised unattended, without love.
But now she's giving birth to her newborn.
A fateful ending takes over the son.

Getting care and love somehow.
Death is what relieves you now.

She is hogging the attention of the world.
depraved joy was never felt before.
The ruthless mum is going to come undone.
Killing her child becomes a ritual loved.

Heinous crimes but people bow.
"I am the victim", you avow.

Nurture your esteem.
Embrace the loss.
Motherly tears
in you are dross.

The shadow mother will give birth again.
Commits the crime, repeating just the same.
No sorrow, no regret. Cruel she behaves.
She takes them from the cradles to the graves.

Nurture your esteem
embrace the loss.
Motherly tears
in you are dross.

Nurture your esteem,
embrace the loss.
Motherly tears
in you are dross.
