The fire roared, I quiver my chin
As I sat there and cried when my mother ran in
To save the life of my dear little brother
He came out safely... but what about mother
When Jason was born, my father left
Later on he was arrested for violence and theft
At the hospital Jason and I yelled out
Where is our mother, we cried a shout
Than the police man told us the terrible truth
How we had to go to a place filled with youth
It had babies, toddlers, tweens, and teens
But what about my mommy... what did the police man mean
Years later I sat in a hard wooden chair
Facing a couple with blue eyes and blond hair
I won't go with them, they won't tear me apart from my brother
They won't tear me apart from my mother
I sat on a window seal
No one will ever understand the sadness I feel
No one... tears escaped from my eyes
As I sat and watched the years pass by
Why is my life so worthless
As it takes away people that I will miss
Why do I feel like crap
As I face the basic fact
That how I can't reverse the time
How I can't take control of the life which is mine
All I want is my brother back
All I want is my mother back
