In a house by the sea,
What looked like a happy family,
really wasn't meant to be,
And they called her tragedy.
With the hands of a woman,
Who bore the poor baby,
came something too common,
Hoping God would save me.
They called her mother,
I couldn't trust her.
They said she was merciful,
though to me she was hurtful.
She was the best a mother could be,
A mother that only deceived me.
She tore a family apart,
only breaking my heart.
She was loved by all,
And I would be the only one to fall.
Where there should have been love,
was only given from god above.
And what was a future,
Was given to her, the butcher.
I wasn't the girl I once was, I lost her.
And They Called Her Mother.
