Song Lyric Sunday. Comfort.

This week’s prompt from Helen Vahdati linked with Simply Marquessa for song lyrics Sunday is Comfort.

Well there is no question about which song to choose, well not for me there isn’t. The song is, Mother Stands for Comfort, by Kate Bush from the album The Line The Cross and the Curve based on the story of the Ballet Shoes by Hans Christian Andersen

Mother Stands For Comfort”

She knows that I’ve been doing something wrong,
But she won’t say anything.
She thinks that I was with my friends yesterday,
But she won’t mind me lying,
Because

Mother stands for comfort.
Mother will hide the murderer.

It breaks the cage, and fear escapes and takes possession,
Just like a crowd rioting inside.
(Make me do this, make me do that, make me do this, make me do that…)
Am I the cat that takes the bird?
To her the hunted, not the hunter.

Mother stands for comfort.
Mother will hide the murderer.
Mother hides the madman.
Mother will stay mum.

Mother stands for comfort.
Mother will hide the murderer.
Mother hides the madman.
Mother will stay mum.

Written by Kate Bush Lyrics from A to Z lyrics.

Silence

Not a single sound

Silence stretched for miles

White crosses in the ground

Each a name on military files.

All represent a life lost

Wiped out at such a cost.

Silence screams so very loud

The souls below are proud.

Silence seals her lips tight

Silence locks her door at night.

She has been warned not to tell

Or she will get more hell.

Let’s pray she finds the strength

To break her silence at length.

Silence has the loudest shout

But we need to listen out.

Silence screamed at us.

Silence yelled and made a fuss

Sadly no one heard.
