	A grown child's bluesy lament about the loss of his mother due to mental illness.
	Story Behind the Song The song was born in response to a creative writing assignment. It released years of pent up emotions in me. Lyrics Mother never took her cues from you. Mother never did the things you do. Mother never had the chance to see the way all through. Mother never put down roots that grew. Mother never said goodbye to me Mother never took a ride for free. Mother never came around in time to see. Mother never said goodbye to me. Mother never got up from her bed. For thirty years she lived there in her head. For every move she makes another chance she takes. Odds are, mother never heard a word I said. Mother, never was your heart that strong. Mother, never were your sins so wrong. You paid for his and you paid for mine and you paid for yours one at a time. Mother, it should've never taken so damn long. Mother never sang her song.
