Made By Maid

They dance like Sirens
Hoping the sun would come out again
And I was born in the fog of that day
Can they hear a babe over all the faith
Or have they forgot what it was that they made
Crawled out of the fog
Found a river
Found a log and floated away
Didn't think I'd be coming back this way
But my feet are resolute
Found their root and brought me back to its place
And on the hill where I was born
There is no rose but just a thorn
They cut it off each year and give it away
But can they hear a babe after all these days
Or have they forgot what it was that they made
So left to wander blind
I find myself in cautious times
And they say
Love's labor is never lost; labor on to this very day
So I walk into the fog
found a babe atop a log and all alone
Took him under
Took him on
Taught him everything about the world I'd come to know
And he blames me for every wrong ever he made
I am blamed for every wrong ever he made
Forgive me I am only a maid
Forgive me I am only a maid
But I can see a babe under all that blame
And I am forgot from the day I am laid
