Mother Lode from SUN WEDDING by Team Bright

My whole life I've been sad as eff about God only knows what. I'm a lost cause. Once in a while I try to lay my paws on some warm heart that beats my name, just to find that darkness has it claimed.

Or so sings some agony in me, casting her sad song out to sea. Tangle of nets that cut and blister, hoping to God that there's a listener as she sets sail into the night.

My whole life I've been under wraps, hiding from a cascade of crap. I'm a hopeless case! Every day I lose my place. My mind is weak and unsustained, it holds no memory or blame.

Or so says some vibration in me, sending a story home through me. Dark dirty wave that seeks a sea. Dark dirty sound that's coming clean, on its long path into the light.

I lost my home and my chance to be happy. I lost my right to belong to my family. I don't deserve any love or affection, because of my reckless displays of imperfection.

Or so says some resonance in me, seeking a medium in me. Dark dirty wave that seeks a sea, dark dirty sound that's coming clean, who needs my field as its amender, who's chosen home and whole surrender on its long path into the light.

I see your path through the night little friend. All paths lead back to the light in the end. If you need a hand, I'm happy to hold. If you need some love, I'm the Loving Mother Lode.
