Somptin' Hapnin' |
| I wish I were as strong and as flexible as an ancient tree |
| So I could stand up tall feeling the wind and the… and the… |
| Water in me |
| I am all alone here |
| Evening-- the lunar light lies behind the clouds |
| Darkness and night come, wishes, fear, to push my voice |
| Down behind the outline of my breath, stark against the wind |
| Drops of sharp reminders of the sadness I hold up… and shame… |
| Shame for all the moments I have head-tripped the ones I loved most |
| But I’m mending now towards a peaceful exit of that ghost |
| I’m mending now towards a peaceful exit of that ghost |
| I’m mending now |
| I wish I were as strong and as flexible as an ancient tree |
| So I could stand up tall, feeling the wind and the… |
| Water in me |
| The water in me, the water in me (water in me…) water… |
| If I could go back, well, I would do it all differently, |
| Replacing the sore spots with generosity and dignity |
| If I could go back, I would do it all differently, |
| Replacing the sore spots with generosity and dignity |
| Go back to all my times of underhanded savvy and |
| Swear on the silhouette of the strongest tree |
| Swear on the silhouette of the strongest tree |
| Swear on the silhouette of the strongest tree |
| I would be kinder, more forgiving, and more humble |
| I’ll be kinder, more forgiving, and more humble |
| I’ll be kinder, more forgiving, and more humble |
| Forgiving myself as well |
| 'cause I, too, am fumbling |
| As I stumble… to the eye of the storm |
| When I am naked, I surrender my strength |
| Because I am so small and irrelevant |
| I surrender my pride because I am so small and irrelevant |
| I surrender my name because I am so small and irrelevant |
| Surrender my pride because I am so small and irrelevant |
| I surrender my name because I am so small and irrelevant |
| So small and irrelevant |
| So small and irrelevant |
| But the storm sings on, and I am open to a sweetening |
| I am freezing, and screaming, and there is no one here for questioning |
| And if I’m chanting and undoing |
| Chanting and undoing (la la lo lo lo the water) |
| Chanting and undoing (la la la lo lo the water in me) |
| (oooh heyyy) (heyyy I…) (I…) |
| This storm is my greatest grandmother |
| She is my truth-teller |
| Nothing stops her from delivering the secrets she uncovers |
| She gives me warmth of sunray, rain daggers against my skin |
| Heavy storm pierce me, wind howl against my offering |
| Wind howl against my offering |
| Wind howl against my offering |
| Drown me out so I can forget |
| Through the softening |
| Drown me out so my thoughts come through, this time redeeming |
| Give me the strength and flexibility of an ancient tree |
| So I can stand up tall, feeling the wind and the |
| Water in me (the… the… water in me) |
| This storm is my greatest grandmother |
| She is my truth-teller |
| Nothing stops her from delivering the secrets she uncovers |
| Example: she gives me warmth of sunray, rain daggers against my skin |
| Heavy storm pierce me, and wind howl against my offering |
| Wind howl against my offering |
| Drown me out so I can force through the softening |
| Drown me out so my thoughts come through this time |
| Give me the strength and flexibility of an ancient tree |
| So i can stand up tall, feeling the wind and |
| Water in me |
| Water in me |
| Water in me |
| Water in me… |
