Lyrics / "RUN MOMMY RUN"

Hi,
Wow… wish I could hear the music too!  Very strong, and pointed (you do a lot in a little time).  The only thing I really wanted to say is that you don’t really get to learn much about Kate.  This is straight forward story-telling, but you don’t actually delve into any of the people.  Perhaps consider making it longer to explore the story.  Or, in what could be an interesting project/challenge, writing a series of songs on Kate.  What kind of person is she, how does she change, what happens to her, how does she cope?  You’ve identified yourself (or the ‘I’ in the song) as her best friend to the end, who else would know her better and stand by her through all the consequences of this.

Just an idea.  Otherwise, really powerful.
Best, Emily

Can I just say…this honestly gave me cold chills.  This is a beautiful piece of work that is universally understood, and that is a hard task to accomplish, but you’ve done it here.  Bravissimo, Signor!  

Oh, this was so sad. So sad because it’s such a typical thing these days.. To suffer in silence and hope that the pain will eventually pass…. Thank you for writing this for all the silent voices in this big world.

This is very powerful. When I first started off reading it, my first thought was that it wasn’t put together that well… that it was good, but not the best, you know? A bunch of words put together. But once it got past the chorus, grabbed my heart… it’s heart-wrenching. Finding out that the mom and dad both dad caught me off guard in a way, and it sort of left a small pit in my stomach for a couple of seconds… but it was the very last part that really got to me. Saying that Kate’s mom never ran, never left her alone… I actually felt like crying, but on the inside. It was more of an “awww… I can’t believe it…” jolting kind of sadness. Job well done there, more than anything.

...Shit…brought me back to my days as a kid, at my dad’s house, watching him beat his way through two wives other than my birth mother.  Just…wow.  My favourite part is the chorus; it’s just so f*cking jarring.

that was a very sad but good poem. it almost made me cry.

i was good i understood the message clearly,but i thought it rymed a little to much but other than than it was good. was that a country song?

Good poem. Have you ever thought about blogging? drew nathandrewsire@yahoo.com

aw it’s sad i had tears in my eyes while i was reading it. It almost reminds me of something like that that happened in my little town where a husband shot his wife then his self. This is good though.

I Like the message, but it doesn’t seem to flow to me.
