When I Calm Down Songtext
von TaughtMe

When I calm down
A feather falls through my chest
The veil is opening
When I calm down
Great mothers purr into the earth into the earth into me
When I calm down
Mellow hands they cup the dirt beneath the room where I′m sleeping
When I calm down
Halo above protect my bones protect my breath protect me

I shook my pain
Over the ancestral well
Nobody came

No echo down the family line
No answer from inside

I cuss and shake
Hungry as I was
Don't make me wait


Bawling at the temple door
Crawling on the floor
No singing fills the chapel there
No one felt my prayer
Hungry as I ever was
Hungry as I was
Hungry as I ever was
Hungry as I was

Did I grieve all my honey out?
Lay your hands upon me
Put the blessing back into me
Don′t ask me to go without

I cuss and shake
Hungry as I was
Don't hesitate

Pry open my unwept life
Pour me out as wine
Soak the veil and pull me through
Press me into you
Hungry as I ever was
Hungry as I was
Happy as I ever was
Happy as I was
Hungry as I ever was
Hungry as I was
Hungry as I ever was
Hungry as I was
