    Quite a long song, its something different give it a chance.


    Letters From Mother Dearest

    Sit on the grass
    Get stabbed repeatedly
    Throw out my lungs
    Wish I was young
    Once again
    (You said you were coming)

    Memories taste horrible
    Time to spit them all out
    Slow brain fast hatred
    stabbing me me
    Once again
    (But you never dead)

    Why have all these feathers fallen on a stone?
    Do you think that I can see through them?
    I call out to you with a prayer yet only silence comes
    God forgive me because you're not the one

    Sitting on that hill I had ran
    From all these feelings that you are closer than I see
    Because the knives of your finger tips have stabbed on my mentality
    I wish my eyes would not seem so dim with ancient dust
    Once more that black book, has taken all my trust

    Look back to that winding road
    This green is bloody
    Red dots in my iris swell
    And the fires a burning in this...
    (I wondered where you were hiding)

    Hell memories taste so horrible
    Time to let it go
    Slow brain create mush
    With a document of lies
    I've trusted you
    (You made a promise mom)

    Why have all these feathers fallen on a stone?
    Do you think that I can see through them?
    I call out to you with a prayer yet only silence comes
    God forgive me because you're not the one
    (You're not the one to make promises)

    Sitting on that hill I had ran
    From all these feelings that you are closer than I see
    Because the knives of your finger tips have stabbed on my mentality
    I wish my eyes would not seem so dim with ancient dust
    Once more that black book, has taken all my trust
    (No more lies in your written hand)

    You said you'd come
    You said you'd be here
    You said it all
    That you would hold me still

    Why have all these feathers fallen on a stone?
    Do you think that I can see through them?
    Do you think I can see you there? ​

    This is really deep, Jesse. Great imagery, great writing. I'm impressed.

    I especially liked the line: "This green is bloody
    Red dots in my iris swell."

    Great job, imo. ^_^

    Really good song! I like the end of each line rhyme, definately a swing up!

    Imo, maybe if it had a word added/more/complimentary into any given line, like visual words, 9/10!

    Thats an opinion too! Otherwise it is a great song. :D
