Mother my soul has been wandering
For ages and ages seeking rest
(while) you have kept me imprisoned
In countless cages of flesh
You kept me reeling in blindness
Kept me living in fear and shame
Always promising freedom
Kept me crawling and calling in pain

Mother please have mercy
Mother let me live

Mother of darkness
I've been lost in your shadow
Near the point of no return
While you taught me to fear you
You have kept me in chains
Stealing all my dreams

Falling under the spell of my captor
I began to believe as true
The dim rays of hope you would show me
As long as i bowed down to you
But when i reached for the daylight
I awakened your scorn and your rage
When i tried to escape you
You awaited me with a new cage

Mother please have mercy
Mother let me live

Mother of darkness
I've been lost in your shadow
Near the point of no return
You want me to fear you
You wanna keep me in chains
Stealing all my dreams

Mother of darkness
I've seen through your shadows
No more will i return
I no longer fear you
I am free of your chains
You will steal no more of my dreams
