She's Somebody's Daughter - Drew Baldridge

You will grow all you need to grow inside my spine And then take what you need to take, what's yours is mine And then just give all you want of it to some new thing I'll stay here, the provider of that constant sting they call love They call love You will drain all you need to drain out of me All the colors have washed away, no more rosy sheen Not just a pale isolated shallow, what a place Oh, what a place I call myself I call myself Oh, love all you need to love before it goes When your face becomes a stranger's I don't know You will never remember who I was to you Carried in the womb I'm called mother I'm called mother They're called home They're called home They're called They're called Mothers Mothers Give all you need to give And sometimes they won't take what they need to take The strangest chemical reaction Inside of her brain, no she's not the same No, she's not the same No, she's not the same

Let the water rise Let the ground crack Let me fall inside Lying on my back Lying on my back Dry your smoke-stung eyes So you can see the light Staring at the sky Watching stars collide Watching stars If you leave When I go Find me In the shallows If you leave When I go Find me In the shallows When the time comes On the last day When they start to come down Will you just Will you run away? Will you run away? And let it all rain down From the blood stained clouds Come out, come out, to the sea my love and just Drown with me Drown with me If you leave When I go Find me In the shallows If you leave When I go Find me In the shallows In the shallows Lying on my back Lying on my back Lying on my back Watching stars collide Watching stars collide Watching stars collide Watching stars collide

From the beginning Small lifeforms They can kill without warning So you don't explode Stop your growing limbs and thinking That you love them, now you're blinking And reminding her of him Oh, you steal his features And your mother is a bleacher She don't even feel the heat, no She don't even want to speak to you But you, you always find another place to go (Oh you) you always find another womb, to grow To grow Well, you can try to sink down deeply And find the children lost at sea Find the children who discretely Be killed in infancy To stop them holding you and screaming That you'll lose your wildest dreaming Still reminding you of him How he left without reasons But you, you always find another place to go Oh you, you always find another womb, to grow To grow To grow You can try to forget, but I won't let you easy You can try to forget, but I won't let you easy I'm floating out in the water washed out to sea Drifting away this time, you'll regret you've conceived it Clean up the dead you leave behind Just like insects Clean up the dead you leave behind

I am my mother savage daughter The one Who runs fast But . sharp stones I am my mother savage daughter I will not cut my hair I will not lower my voice My mother child is a savage She look for her robbers And the colors of stones And the faces of cats And the bowling of feathers And the dancing of bars In the curved of all bones I am my mother savage daughter The one who runs far With... and sharp stones I am my mother savage daughter I will not cut my hair I will not lower my voice I'm honest child Dance's in the darkness She sings even songs By the light of the moon And watches the stars And renames the planets And dream she can reach them But the song in a broome We're abroad for a foul of darkness Into this world through the Through pain and deep in our bones The old songs are awakening So sing them with voices of thunder And rain We are our mother savage daughter The one who runs fast With.and sharp stones We are our mother savage daughter We will not cut our hair We will not lower our voices

It's useless. I tried but to no avail, To tell you how much I know. How much I care. Come home. Breathe until your lungs fail. You can sing till you go deaf. Everyday that you don't call her, I can feel it. You're coming down. I am sick. I am horrified at everything I hear. The youngest daughter lost her way. Everyday repeats itself again. The cycle of our misery, it drives us all insane. Please come home. The poison takes away from us Now you're sick to death from all the drugs. Breathe until your lungs fail. You can sing till you go deaf. Everyday that you don't call her, I can feel it. You're coming down.
