Tell Me - The Green Children

Mama's drowning and she won't stop
Until she's sinking until all has been forgot
It's getting heavier holding you up
Well we're going under if you decide
You're giving up
Mom I need you to swim to shore
Show me you're fighting in a war
Isn't it in you to wanna believe you like before
So tell me tell me now
Tell me you're gonna try
Tell me you don't want to break my heart
The world is getting colder
It's nearly frozen over
I'm finding it hard to move
And soon we're gonna lose
Mama's falling
She's falling fast
And I can't reach her 'cause she's stumbling
On the past
Mom I need you to wake up
Leave what you've lost see what you've got
I am what you forgot
Tell me tell me why
Tell me you've gotta try
And tell me 'cause you've been breaking
My heart
The world is growing colder
It's nearly frozen over
I'm finding it hard to move
And soon we're gonna lose
The world is growing colder
It's nearly frozen over
I'm finding it hard to move
And soon we're gonna lose
I just don't read you
Are you calling for help
You're letting me go every time I lay
Down my rope
Are you calling are you calling
Make me understand
I just don't read you
Are you calling for help
You're letting me go every time I lay
Down my rope
Are you calling are you calling
Make me understand
Tell me tell me now
Tell me you're gonna try
Tell me you don't wanna break my heart
So tell me tell me why
Tell me you've gotta try
Tell me you don't wanna break my heart
The world is getting colder
It's nearly frozen over
I'm finding it hard to move
And soon we're gonna lose
We're both growing older
I feel us flowing over
And soon it will be too late to realise
Our mistakes
