[Intro]
Oh, I’ve been wonderin’ where the love went,
Lost in the shadows of a broken home.
Questions whisperin’ in the wind,
Is there a place to call my own?
[Verse 1]
Mama, you took what little light I had,
Left me with scars I can’t undo.
Taught me I was broke , told me I was bad,
Now I’m searching for a truth I never knew.
[Pre-Chorus]
Was it worth the heartbreak, the tears I cried?
Did you ever see the child behind my eyes?
All I wanted was your gentle grace,
But all I found was an empty space.
[Chorus]
What kind of mother steals from her own kids?
Leaves them broken, shatters what’s hid.
Why don’t you love me, why can’t you see?
The pain you caused, the shattered me.
Was it worth the life you chose?
Living with the damage, nobody knows.
Mom, I’m askin’ through these tears,
Was it worth the life you killed?
[Verse 2]
You told me I was broken, day after day,
Crushed my soul till I gave in.
Thought I’d find my way, find my strength someday,
But the darkness kept on settlin’ in.
[Pre-Chorus]
Did you ever wonder, did you even care?
How your words and actions left me bare?
All I wanted was your love to stay,
But I grew up with a heart torn away.
[Chorus]
What kind of mother steals from her own kids?
Leaves them broken, shatters what’s hid.
Why don’t you love me, why can’t you see?
The pain you caused, the shattered me.
Was it worth the life you chose?
Living with the damage, nobody knows.
Mom, I’m askin’ through these tears,
Was it worth the life you killed?
[Outro]
So I ask again, with a trembling voice,
Mom, was it worth it, what you destroyed?
In the quiet, I find your choice, to leave me forever destroyed.
