Story Behind the Song
The motivation for this song was my mother's illness and how much she has struggled with in her life, and asking why? it has to happen to her. I wrote the song mostly in a night, and fixed it up and added a bridge over the next month or so.
Recorded it in one take.
Lyrics
Shivering, I don't know what to say
She's crying again, will it always be the same
Pain every way, how much more can she take
Masking, I know this smile is fake
Chorus (x2):
And I ask why?
Why oh why oh why?
ANd I ask why?
Drowning,
When will it let her breathe
Coping, let the pain go please
Pain in her heart, can never guess it seems
Smiling, she always trusts with ease
Repeat chorus
Bridge:
And theis feeling, won't go away
WIthout you, I am astray
And this pain, is seeking
Without you, my strength weakens
Repeat Chorus
