about

this track is about my lack of confidence, my spinelessness. How hard it is to open up for real, and all the many processes of coming to terms with who i am and knowing that the socialized aspects of fear and being shaped into someone im not too happy with sometimes can be worked on, and re worked and eventually changed. learning to love myself. holding beauty.

lyrics

you lay on their table
held in porcelain
arms stretched out reaching
i watch you slowly lean into passing
all growth and light through you showing
your color held high, wreathed in sturdy green
what would you be if they left you in the ground
as you sink and rot to brown

and this is who I am
this is who ill be
theres not much remaining
the sun shown cant see

I lay on your table
arms stretched revealing
you can look down and through me
you can devour me

now this is who I am
now this is who ill be
there must be more remaining
the sun swings out to find me

i dont know me
i am learning
i dont know me
im unlearning
but i will know me
for the sun returns to show me
