Palace

Dear Mother

Compositor: Merel Bechtold / David Pear

Our lives subdued
Green eyes turned blue

The rain will end
That slow descent

I wish that I could hear you laughing
But sometimes it prolongs the end
The silence in my mind is frightening
I wish my heart can learn to pretend

How will I know that it’s you
Who shines amongst the thousand stars
How will I know that it’s you
Who guards me every waking hour
How will I know

Despite how pure
We’ll fade I'm sure

And once we will end
He wouldn’t decline my demands
I'm sure cause

I wish that I could hear you laughing
But sometimes it prolongs the end
The silence in my mind is frightening
I wish my heart can learn to pretend

How will I know that it’s you
Who shines amongst the thousand stars
How will I know that it’s you
Who guards me every waking hour
How will I know

We tend to be on different sides
Without persistent compromises
High above
Conjuring from prayer wheel
We’re out of luck and secrets
We won’t speak of

How will I know that it’s you
Who shines amongst the thousand stars
How will I know that it’s you
Who guards me every waking hour
How will I know
