Mother, I am a killer I shot my brother down I wanna say I did it for the struggle, but I took his life as he lay in the night So as the green grass grows brown and the war goes all around You disappear from me, mama It should come as no surprise 'Cause I have become my mother's enemy It's me, it's me
Mother, I am a killer I turned the blue skies to black I wanna say I didn't see the sky burning bright I poured the gas, I lit the light
So as the green grass grows brown and the war goes all around You disappear from me, mama It should come as no surprise 'Cause I have become my mother's enemy It's me, it's me
Mother, you laid the grass down so I could walk around Mother, you painted the skies blue so I could see true Let the sun shine through Turn the black sky blue Forgive me like you always do
You disappear from me, mama It should come as no surprise 'Cause I have become my mother's enemy It's me, it's me
You disappear from me, mama It should come as no surprise I have become my mother's enemy It's me, it's me
