In the middle of the house where you grew up
Your mother yelled at me
Even though I barely knew her
She'd grown you from a seed.
I know it's hard to let it go
I know it's hard to let it go
In the middle of the house where you grew up
Saw the way that your eyes closed at the first sign of
A raised hand thrown,
See the marks on the walls
Baby, how you've grown.
In the middle of the house where you grew up
Saw the way that you went back into your shell
Could feel the cold of your mother
See the marks on the walls
Baby, how you've grown.
