Hiroshimama

Arno Carstens

I come home and I see only

You come home and you see only...

Monstrous divorces

Monstrous and don't even bother

There is porcelain breaking in the kitchen

There is a fire in our tongue you can't buy

I come home and I see only

You come home and you see only...

Two swollen hearts that was blinded by loves light

The great unknown is awakening alone

Monstrous and don't even bother

I come home and I see you only

You come home and you see only...

Hiroshimama... Papa...

Me and her Hiroshimama

Me the man

She the junkie

I drink whisky to forgive her

As children look and sing

Where did this begin?

I come home and I see only

You come home and you see only...

Hiroshimama... Papa...

Hiroshimama... Papa...

Hiroshimama... Papa...

Hiroshimama... Papa...
