She held you close Warm milk hands You bit the vein Took the first land Small mouth, red gums Latched to her side She fed your name You fed on her life Take Take Take Until she bleeds Take Take Take What you need Mother, mother I watch you go Mother, mother I made this hole We ate the hand That taught us love Now both are dust Now both are mud Skin went thin Fields went black Salt in the mouth No road back You slept inside Her breaking ribs Still she gave What she could give Take [Take Take Until she breaks Take Take Take Until she shakes Mother, mother I watch you go Mother, mother I made this hole We ate the hand That taught us love Now both are dust Now both are mud I hear the bones Under the roots I hear the cough Inside the fruit No more milk No more sky Baby and mother BOTH DIE !!!! Mother, mother I watch you go Mother, mother I made this hole We ate the hand That taught us love Now both are dust Now both are mud No more milk No more sky Mother and child Dead Side by side
