Lyrics
Description
It was a midnight ward and a paper cup of cold tea
You were fifteen and the machines kept counting heartbeat by heartbeat
Fluorescent corridor and a nurse with tired shoes
You pulled the curtain close and hummed a song to chase the bruise
You learned the language of the hours, two a.m. the softest light
A folded list of do's and don'ts, a match to keep the night
Each small motion stitched a map that taught me how to stand
You made a place for courage with your own two hands
Mama, since fifteen you won't let the dark move in
You light the dark that tries to take you, steady from within
In the hush between the beeps and prayers, your breath becomes the tune
Mama, you light the dark that tries to take you
I remember chemo mornings, the plastic poured beneath your skin
You'd tie your hair back, sip your tea and find a joke to pull me in
There's a scar you hide beneath your collarbone and a lesson in each line
Count your small mercies, you would say, take one slow day at a time
Some months we climbed like foothills, some months we slipped below
There were bracelets of hospital bands and nights of soft hello
Progress kept a thinned out face, relapse a folded card
But every time you rose again, you fixed up what was scarred
Mama, since fifteen you won't let the dark move in
You light the dark that tries to take you, steady from within
When the room leans hard toward fear, your hand finds mine too soon
Mama, you light the dark that tries to take you
There was one night the monitor slowed and the hallway held its breath
I counted seconds like a prayer, felt the world thin down to less
They told me, hold on, so I held your heartbeat pressed into my palm
Then you coughed and found the words that turned that silence warm
Mama, since fifteen you won't let the dark move in
You light the dark that tries to take you, steady from within
All the rituals, our small lives, the seven in
Mama, ooh
Ah, ah, ah
All the rituals and small alarms, the seven in
Ooh, yeah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
