Girl
better break out
time’s getting short
and they don’t know what we’re about
Boys they hide
when they see a girl shine out loud
like you and I
it’s a lonely life
but it’s the only one for me
then I see the free honey bee
bound to the song of infinity
Oh, I’ve been lost
I cut my heart on beauties so sharp
thought the bleeding would never stop
but that wasn’t me
it was another and she
thought she had to walk to the fire to breathe
Eventually
a pattern emerged
cycles of three, cycles of three
and nine wild trees
circle the moon inside me
when we bleed, when we bleed
Cause girls
they wanna draw blood
should you rise above
your body, your sex, and your selfish love
we spend so much time
drawing our lines
we forget that the lines draw us sometimes
So Mother of my mind,
take this life
do what you will
I’m your stone on the hill
a part of the sea
I’ll always be
but this is so much bigger than me
this sea is so much greater than me
Once I had a dream
I was on a cliff of ebony
playing this song on a black piano
water flowed round my feet
then dropped of the steep
into so many stars your heart would weep
I wasn’t asleep
I wasn’t asleep
that dream came true
when I looked at you
saw you knew things I thought
only I knew
so we flew away….
singing,
Take this life
and do what you will
I’m your stone on the hill,
I’m your stone on the hill.
A part of the sea
we’ll always be
and the sea is so much bigger
than you or me
the sea is so much greater
than I’ll ever be
