Lyrics Beautiful Mourning - To Kill Achilles

Beautiful Mourning

See, when you’re young there’s a connection
From a mother to a son
And that mother, she’s the light
And she carries you on
She’ll pick you up
And she’ll keep you clean
She’ll show you the love
You so desperately need
So at no point do you think
She could ever leave
She’s the constant, she’s the mother
She’s all that we need
So imagine my pain
I was only fourteen
And I was told that my mother
Was no longer here
You parted the clouds and shone down on me
Kept me from feeling so incomplete
But now I feel lost, searching always
For that missing light in the darkest of days
Because love’s what you taught
And love’s what we learned
But it’s so hard to feel loved
When you’re not around
This house it feels empty
My father’s lost for words
He’s desperately trying
But can’t make a sound (I'm so sorry)
Bring her back to me, bring her back
I can’t eat, I can’t sleep
I can’t feel, I can’t breathe
Bring her back to me, bring her back
I can’t eat, I can’t sleep
I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe
I sometimes talk to the distorted reflection
In the bottom of my empty glass
There’s only one question I’ll ever ask (Will I see you again?)
But I’m sure the answer will come as no surprise
As I stare at myself eye-to-eye
And whisper, whisper the words
«Why'd she have to die?»
Why?
Why did you have to die?
Bring her back to me, bring her back
I can’t eat, I can’t sleep
I can’t feel, I can’t breathe
Bring her back to me, bring her back
I can’t keep going on
I just wish I could see you again
