Kiss my name Mama in the afterglow When the grass is green with grow And my tears have turned to snow
I’m only a child Born upon a grave Dancing through the stations Calling out my name
Oh mama kiss my name I am trying to be sane I’m trying to kiss my friends And when broken, make amends
Kiss my name, the curtains white The turtle doves embroider light As I lie, murdered in ground The rain compacting sodden sound Of songs I sang the years before Kiss my name When it was time to rain Upon the coal that I became
