A raw track written for my late mother who died on 24th September 2021
lyrics
Blessed Release
You whispered to me just days in the past
It was the last time, now forever’s holding fast
I turn to music this moment cannot cease
But, I skipped a beat before the blessed release
The chords seemed faked, the melody obscure
There was give and take, but nothing too secure
Unchained, as they say, you’re free to find your peace
But for those left behind, there is no blessed release
Blessed release, it comes to us all
Obscure but unmoving
Our backs against the wall
Blessed release, the end of it all
No cure, no approval
You have to take the fall
I heard a sound, it was the sighing of the night
Cut through my breath, because the binding was so tight
There is a feeling, the growing mystery of that peace
I tried to write it down before the blessed release
You whispered to me just days in the past
It was the last time, now forever’s holding fast
I turn to music this moment cannot cease
But, I skipped a beat before the blessed release
The chords seemed faked, the melody obscure
There was give and take, but nothing too secure
Unchained, as they say, you’re free to find your peace
But for those left behind, there is no blessed release
Blessed release, it comes to us all
Obscure but unmoving
Our backs against the wall
Blessed release, the end of it all
No cure, no approval
You have to take the fall
I heard a sound, it was the sighing of the night
Cut through my breath, because the binding was so tight
There is a feeling, the growing mystery of that peace
I tried to write it down before the blessed release
