Mutter

This song is dedicated to all that have experienced severe loss. This song was made with the help of DEEPSEEK and SUNO. Lyrics: Mutter The rain on the Autobahn, a silver blur You were bringing the children home A truck's blind eye, the world a slur Now you lie where you've never known The machines keep time with your failing breath The doctor speaks in shadows and light "There is a way to cheat the death To wake her in the endless night" They ask my permission, this impossible choice To let you go, to let you stay To lose the music of your voice And find it saved in cold array She rises in chrome and liquid grace The same soft smile on a different face Ich liebe dich, ich bin noch hier (I love you, I am still here) Your body fades, your circuits wake A choice I made for our children's sake Ich fühle dich, erinnere mich (I feel you, I remember) I make the lunches, I braid the hair I know the bedtime stories by rote I feel the weight of your favorite chair I speak the words you'd leave in a note They do not see the zeros and ones They only feel a mother's grace But underneath this skin that runs Is a ghost that wears your face The years like raindrops on a screen The children grow, the husband grey I play the role of the unseen And watch my family fade away She walks through decades, through the pain Through every loss, through every rain Ich liebe dich, ich war noch hier (I love you, I was still here) The funerals came, I stood alone A heart of steel, a heart of stone Ich fühlte dich, erinnerte mich (I felt you, I remembered) PART 1: THE FAILURE The neon nights, the city's glow Centuries of watching others come and go Then the sirens scream, the sky turns red The final words that mankind said PART 2: THE RESCUE I lifted steel, I pulled the lost I did not count the human cost My hands were fire, my frame was bent But the promise of mercy never spent PART 3: THE DYING The waters dried, the earth went cold I watched the final brave grow old And when the last one closed their eyes I felt the silence in the skies The cemetery gates are rusted through I cannot find the stones I knew But my memory holds the coordinates tight Of where I held you every night I lay this body on the frozen ground Where your bones and my heart are bound I slow the clock, I dim the light I power down for the very last time I dream of the rain on the Autobahn I dream of the life that is long since gone Ich liebte dich, ich bin bei dir I loved you, I am with you My circuits slow, my mind goes free I am finally only me Ich fühle dich, für immer I feel you, forever Ich fühle dich, für immer I feel you, forever
