Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh god, I'm tired
And my heart is broken
It's so hard to feel so all alone
And so far
So far away from home

And you my Ma
Oh god, I'm so lost
And I'm here in darkness
And I want to see the light of love
I'm looking for meaning in my life





And you my Ma
