Never Know Why

I was going under, thinking about my mother
Having visions of her as a child
Tryna love her mother through a vodka bottle
And in this vision we were reconciled
And it's a long way to the meaning of the life

I know we'll get there together on the other side
Of all this pain we feel and never know why
My mother's strong and I am my mother's child
I wish the love was stronger between me and my father

I had visions of him as a child
Tryna love his father through a heart's confusion
And in this vision we are reconciled
And it's a long way to the meaning of a life

I know we'll get there together on the other side
Of all this pain we feel and never know why
My father's strong and I am my father's child
