Chapter 25 - Grandma

Grandma, O grandma, why you had to die,

And leave me behind in a world so cruel,

Like mama and papa, you are gone, but why?

My nights are haunted by such darkness and ghoul,

The animals and the people and the beasts within,

The treatment, such coldness from strangers and kin.

 

Grandma, O grandma, all my days, they are sad,

The tears and fears, how you took them away,

Now they freeze me and I think I've got GAD,

I'm lost, I'm no more the boy you knew in your day,

I've got no-one to tell how my days have been,

I'm sitting in darkness, I'm afraid I can't win.

 

Grandma, O grandma, how I wish you were here,

To hold me and to tell me things will be okay,

You heard me, you saw me in a way that was clear,

Would you tell them, the angels, come take me away,

Grandma the waters are well above my chin,

I'm sinking, been dying, and the crows are callin'.
