"A Muse No More"
You are a broken woman now
you're just a shell
of the woman you were
when you put me through hell
You told me today
that you are depressed
Part of me wonders
if it's due to regret
I want you to know
that I have forgiven you
I still have some anger
that I won't show to you
I know you "didn't mean it"
I know how you felt
I know you better
than you'll ever know yourself
So I will let be, what is
and love you anyway
after all you are my mother
it's supposed to be that way
and I know you love me too
as much as you can
and I think you finally get
It's kids, before man
However things end
I want you to know
You were my muse
but you're not anymore
You are a broken woman now
you're just a shell
of the woman you were
when you put me through hell
