Joanna Lero - Irene Lyrics

Irene won't be here tonight
Mother to daughter
Now it's daughter's time to see the same fight
Oh now hush
Be a big girl and wipe the tears off your eyes

I'm so sorry we didn't learn

Irene won't be here tonight
She didn't want to see
How deafness separates
In the name she loved so much
I don't want to make you weak boy
Don't you know you can be strong
Without fists
Without laws
Without amens spit in my face
Just because you're so damn scared
Just because somebody said you can
And they topped your anger with their hate and
Fear is hatred's cheating lover
That will bind you, bind you from living
Till death do you part
Girl when you walk, when you walking away

I'm so sorry we didn't learn

Irene won't be here tonight
She left in peace
It left with her
