lyrics
(VERSE 1)
Cracking. Breaking.
Shedding my form, spirits are born,
Hearts Aching. Placating,
Liminal states, my hands vibrate.
It's searing, itself in to
My minds eye, like crystalline.
She told me, these secrets.
Connected more than i'll ever know.
(I hear the voice of two women, as I hurtle forwards.
A breeze so sweet, caresses me,)
(CHORUS)
Someone set me free.
I don't know who I want to be.
Freefalling to my knees,
This power hurts inside of me.
(VERSE 2)
Can I be happy?
Hostile embrace, I have lost my place.
Is she part of my tree?
The sap, the bark, the fruit, the leaves.
Why did it take so long?
To tell me why I didn't belong.
There's peace in my sadness.
I'm still as the heavens fall over me.
(An embryonic bubble nurtures me.
Is this? What rebirth feels like?)
(CHORUS)
Someone set me free.
I don't know who I want to be.
Freefalling to my knees,
This power hurts inside of me.
