Like A Motherless Child

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
 Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
 Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
 So far from home
 This was life and this was safer
 All was strange and always stranger
 I laid awake but so much later
 I'm never safe from all this danger
 The demon's eyes and demon satyr
 I was bait but what would bait her?
 Don't know my needs, don't know my ways so
 I hide my face, no way to face her
 This was loss, this was name
 This was my truth, this was no game
 This was not hope, this was not sane
 And from these broken places made
 That was loss and this was later
 I wanted less but nothing greater
 I couldn't leave, I couldn't stay
 Like a motherless child
 Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
 Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
 Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
 So far from home
 This was loss and this was later
 Always hate but never hate her
 I laid in wait but so much later
 And never safe from all this danger
 The demon's eyes, the demon satyr
 I was bait, but what would bait her
 Don't know my needs, don't know my ways so
 I hide my face, no way to face her
 This was loss, this was name
 This was my truth, this was no game
 This was not hope, this was not sane
 And from these broken places made
 That was loss and this was later
 I wanted less but nothing greater
 I couldn't leave, I couldn't stay
 Like a motherless child
 Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
 Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
 Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
 So far from home
 So far from home
