It's Not Your Story To Tell

from The Haunting of Mary Shelley by Valentine Wolfe

/

lyrics

It’s not your story
It’s not your pain
These lies you feed yourself
It’s not your story to tell

Never knew her mother
Yet her voice was always there
Tracing every letter
Upon that graveyard stone
She learned to read
She learned of loss
Her mother’s fierce female words
She kept them near her heart

It’s not your story
It’s not your pain
These lies you feed yourself
It’s not your story to tell

If only the good doctor
Had taken better care
To imbue his new creation
With a Mother’s Love

What malice might have been misplaced
What horrors may have been averted
This author knew her subject well
It’s not your story to tell
