lyrics

Verse 1
A mother, a daughter
One protects, the other
Violet’s angst, confusion
Lady’s love, her caring
She seemed to, come from nowhere
An angel, to protect
Violet’s guard, standing tall
Hesitant to be, to be loved

Chorus
“Come to me” she screams
“Who are you?” Violet replies
“I am you” she screams

“Where did you come from?”
“We’re all from the same place”
“What are you talking about?”

“Listen to me” she screams
“Why should I?” Violet replies
“I am you” she screams

“You’re crazy, leave me alone”
“You have a million sorrows”
“Who doesn’t? Leave me alone”

Verse 2
What can you do when they don’t listen?
What can you do when they act like they don’t care?
What can you do when to try to save them?
What can you do when they don’t want saved?

She seemed to, come from nowhere
An angel, to protect
Violet’s guard, standing tall
Hesitant to be, to be loved

Chorus 2
“Confide in me” she screams
“Why would I?” Violet replies
“I am you” she screams

“Where did you come from?”
“You made me to save you”
“What are you talking about?”

“Trust in me” she screams
“What is this” Violet replies
“I am you” she screams

“You’re crazy, leave me alone”
“Your father has hurt you”
“Whose hasn’t? Leave me alone”

Verse 3
Too hostile, to listen
Too hostile, to give in
Too damaged, and too soon
To begin, her healing
