Mom and Dad - Sharpless

A stable cocoon

As warm as any womb

A little kid alone in his room

With the softest of sheets

A warm place to sleep

It disappears

So soon

Because parents share a heart

But it pushes them apart

And it’s just too much to resume

The lives they had before

That old apartment door

Between them

And their tomb

So much pain

And things to say

It might just take

Your life away

It won’t

There’s always different ways to cope

Where there’s despair there’s always

Hope

You see them again

And you tell all your friends

You’re sleeping alone again

And to your surprise

Hellos and goodbyes

Are different in the end

And they say

«no no you can’t go on»

I keep it locked inside for architects to find

But

Before our stars go out

I want them to align

I want to feel your lips

Moving up my spine

I wanna feel your love

Because i can’t feel mine

So much change

And empty days

It might just make

You waste away but

No

(it's too late for me)

This is just a time for you to grow

There’s always ways to make a

Home is gone now

Home was somehow

Just a building

And a door i know

It’s a little late to be alone

It’s a little late to be alone
