Verse 1]
He puts his brother to bed again
Tells him stories through the cold and the rain
Mama’s lost in another world
Eyes all cloudy, hair unfurled
Dinner’s just a wish they make
While she drifts off wide awake
[Chorus]
Mama, can’t you see us?
We’re slipping day by day
Two little hearts just wondering
Why you always fade away
We miss your laugh, we miss your light
And the way you used to pray
Please come back, before it’s too late
[Verse 2]
The pictures tell a different tale
Of sunny days and a fairytale
Now the smiles don’t feel the same
She barely even says their names
They don’t ask for much at all
Just for her to hear them call
[Chorus]
Mama, can’t you see us?
We’re slipping day by day
Two little hearts just wondering
Why you always fade away
We miss your laugh, we miss your light
And the way you used to pray
Please come back, before it’s too late
[Bridge]
Another night, another tear
Another hour lost to fear
But they still believe in you
They still see the good shine through
They’re holding on to yesterday
Hoping you will find your way
[Verse 3]
She stares into a quiet room
Where childhood fades too fast, too soon
But in the still, she hears their voice
And realizes she still has a choice
Whispers through the morning haze—
“I’m coming back, I’ll find a way”
[Chorus – Final]
Mama, now you see us
We’ve been here all along
Still dreaming of your laughter
Still singing our old songs
We miss your heart, we miss your smile
You’re more than all this weight
Come back to us…
Before it’s too late
