Looking For Somthing

Another day is washed away
And all alibis are out
And the hand that used to heal me only cursed me now
The echoes of a woman so kind
Rain like waterfalls and ice-cream on my worried mind
I lay there in the puddle of myself
Fishing from a brand new wish from that bucket down the well
And in her colors I find my faith
Cause I remember every word that lady used to say
She said that hearts can't break themselves
Looking for something, leaving with nothing
But souls can't save themselves
Learning to fly, sweet mother of mine!
Been a long way home without you
It's just a long way home without you

That's my mother, like no other
Made me human, made me brother
And it's swelling with blister for my sake and my brothers
The guardian of my karma, keep my feet on terrain firmer
And then release me like a scient to the sky!
She said that hearts can't break themselves
Looking for something, leaving with nothing
But souls can't save themselves
Learning to fly, sweet mother of mine!
It's just a long way home without you.
