Elegy - Unorthodox Methods Lyrics
In a dangerous environment, a single mother fights against tradition.Protecting her son from the corrupt influences surrounding them both.She tries to raise him as a good and honest person.Year after year, many sacrifices have to be made,but the white lies and tales she tells each Christmas,cause the child to develop a warped perception of life.[Verse]Danger lurks in every placeA mother fights to protect her childTradition stipulates its wayIt's easy for them to sayInfluences all aroundHard to change, creatures of habitSacrifices must be madeA few white lies she must tell[Bridge]The pressure lay on her shouldersDecisions unfairDesperately seeking comfortSearching for strength not there[Chorus]Have no fearUnorthodox ways, unorthodox methodsAlone and afraid, different from othersAll aloneShe carries the strain, the future uncoversHide your tears[Verse]Years of hardship and of painCorruption lingers in all the dark cornersHer efforts are in vainHis perception of life has changedDon't waste your timeHe's lost, it's time to pray[Bridge]Stupid to point a finger, she isn't to blameBelieving that life will bring him strengthThe courage to find his way[Repeat chorus]
