I Lost My Mum Today

I lost my mum today
"It's for the best", I hear people say
But they don't understand she's still my mum
And deep inside I feel so numb

I lost my mum today
On the crisp white sheets she lay
I couldn't even say goodbye
Not with death standing so close by

I lost my mum today
I'm trying to keep the tears at bay
Will I remember all the good things
Or just the pain that alcoholism brings?

I lost my mum today
I turned my back and she went away
Do you think she looked back and checked
That I wasn't left stranded emotionally shipwrecked

I lost my mum today
