A Song For Your Kids

from Catastrophile by Gubble

lyrics

A Fateful Day Of August 5th
Birthed a Child Named Anne-Marie
Born To Boost Their Welfare Checks
The Child They Did Not Care For
By The Tracks Lived Anne-Marrie
She Played Out In The Yard
There Came A Rumble That Shook The Yard
And Anne Had Wandered Too Far
A Summer Evening
She Was Playing
No One Watching
The Was Pressed Into The Tracks By The Oncoming Train

Two Lovers One With Child
Prepare Their Nursery
They Name The Baby Anne-Marie
And Namesake Of Her Mother
And On Delivery
She Wasn't Breathing
They Weren't So Lucky
The Child Was Dead

And So The Namesake Of Ann-Marie
There's Death That Dwells Within It
(Redacted)
Perish, With No Stopping
What A Beautiful Name
As I Can See Her Lights Go Out
And Anne Got No Grave
No Grave

And as the parents were expected to
They hadn't honored her life
Unrecognized she lies
And so the curse goes on
So that her presence is felt
