Just that kiss
Was all there is
Every cell in my body
Lined up for you
Legs a little open
Once again
Awaken my senses
Head topless
Arisen my senses! (Arisen my senses)
Just that kiss
Was all there is
My hands, my palms pulsating of
The things I want to do to you (the things)
(I want to do to you)
Just that kiss (just that kiss)
Is all there is (is all there is)
We're weaving a mix-tape
With every crossfade
Is WWW
For him I heed (Is WWW)
Songs from the
Warmth, once again (I'll send you some)
We're weaving a mix-tape
Weaving a mix-tape (with every)
Song
For who I am
For, for, with love
With love (and)
Awaken my senses
I'll weave it
Just that kiss (awaken my senses)
Was all there is
Just that kiss (kiss, kiss) (arisen)
Was all there is (my senses, my senses)
Once again, just that kiss (arisen)
Was all there is (my senses)
For him I heed
Once again, I'm made to merge
For him I heed
We're made to merge (it's you)
For him I heed (I see)
For him I heed
For him I heed (am I keen or key or not too keen)
Too keen, to see, to be seen (am I keen or key or not too keen?)
With him I heed
He sees me for who I am (am I keen or not keen?)
For him I heed
To key, to see, to be seen (am I keen or not keen?)
With him, him (am I keen or not keen?)
He sees me for who I am (to key, to be?)

Blissing Me
All of my mouth was kissing him
Now, into the air, I am missing him
Is this excess texting a blessing?
Two music nerds obsessing
He reminds me of the love in me
I'm celebrating on a vibrancy
Sending each other MP3s
Falling in love to a song
This handsomest of wickermen
He asked if I could wait for him
Now, how many lightyears this interim
While I fall in love with his songs?
His hands are good in protecting me
Touching and caressing me
But would it be trespassing
Wanting him to be blissing me
Robbing him of his youth?
Cliffhanger-like suspension
My longing has formed its own skeleton
Bridging the gap between singletons
Sending each others these songs
The interior of these melodies
Is perhaps where we are meant to be
Our physical union a fantasy
(I just fell) I just fell in love with a song
So, I reserve my own intimacies
I bundle them up in packages
My rawward longing far too visceral
Did I just fall in love with love?
Now, into the air, I am missing him
Is this excess texting a blessing?
Two music nerds obsessing
He reminds me of the love in me
I'm celebrating on a vibrancy
Sending each other MP3s
Falling in love to a song
This handsomest of wickermen
He asked if I could wait for him
Now, how many lightyears this interim
While I fall in love with his songs?
His hands are good in protecting me
Touching and caressing me
But would it be trespassing
Wanting him to be blissing me
Robbing him of his youth?
Cliffhanger-like suspension
My longing has formed its own skeleton
Bridging the gap between singletons
Sending each others these songs
The interior of these melodies
Is perhaps where we are meant to be
Our physical union a fantasy
(I just fell) I just fell in love with a song
So, I reserve my own intimacies
I bundle them up in packages
My rawward longing far too visceral
Did I just fall in love with love?

The Gate
My healed chest wound
Transformed into a gate
Where I receive love from
Where I give love from
And I care for you, care for you
I care for you, care for you
Care for you, care for you
I care for you, care for you
Split into many parts
Splattered light beams into prisms
That will reunite
If you care for me, care for me
If you care for me, care for me
Care for me, care for me
And then I'll care for you, care for you
I care for you, care for you
I care for you, care for you
Care for you, care for you
Didn't used to be so needy
Just more broken than normal
Proud self-sufficiency
My silhouette is oval
It is a gate
I can care for you, care for you from
I can care for you, care for you
I care for you, care for you
I care for you, care for you
I care for you, care for you
You care for me, care for me
Care for you
Transformed into a gate
Where I receive love from
Where I give love from
And I care for you, care for you
I care for you, care for you
Care for you, care for you
I care for you, care for you
Split into many parts
Splattered light beams into prisms
That will reunite
If you care for me, care for me
If you care for me, care for me
Care for me, care for me
And then I'll care for you, care for you
I care for you, care for you
I care for you, care for you
Care for you, care for you
Didn't used to be so needy
Just more broken than normal
Proud self-sufficiency
My silhouette is oval
It is a gate
I can care for you, care for you from
I can care for you, care for you
I care for you, care for you
I care for you, care for you
I care for you, care for you
You care for me, care for me
Care for you

Utopia
Bird species never seen or heard before
The first flute carved from the first fauna
Utopia (It's not)
Elsewhere
Let's purify
You assigned me to protect our lantern
To be intentional about the light
Utopia
It isn't elsewhere
It, it's here
My instinct has been shouting at me for years
Saying let's get out of here
Huge toxic tumor bulging underneath the ground here
Purify, purify, purify, purify toxicity
The first flute carved from the first fauna
Utopia (It's not)
Elsewhere
Let's purify
You assigned me to protect our lantern
To be intentional about the light
Utopia
It isn't elsewhere
It, it's here
My instinct has been shouting at me for years
Saying let's get out of here
Huge toxic tumor bulging underneath the ground here
Purify, purify, purify, purify toxicity

Body Memory
First snow of Winter
I'm walking hills and valleys
Adore this mystical fog!
This f*cking mist!
These cliffs are just showing off
Then the body memory kicks in
I mime my whole mountains
The moss that I'm made of
I redeem myself
I've been wrestling my fate
Do I accept this ending?
Will I accept my death?
Or struggle claustrophobic?
Fought like a wolverine
With my destiny
Refuse to accept what was meant to be
Then the body memory kicks in, and I trust the unknown
Unfathomable imagination
Surrender to future
Oh, how to capture all this love
And find a pathway for it
Like threading an ocean through a needle
Ribbon through a keyhole
Can't fathom the grasp
I can't grasp the fathom
Then the body memory kicks in
My limbs and tongue take over
Like the ancestors before me
Show me the flow
My sexual DNA
X-rays of my Kama Sutras
Summons different bodies
Compares spines and buttocks
And back of necks
Then my body memory kicks in
It simply takes over
Beastiality
I redeem my body
I wasn't born urban
Toxic doesn't agree with me
A love lured me here
Into a stagnant state
My myths, my customs, ridiculed
Vacuum-packed molecules
Then my body memory kicks in
On this Brooklyn dance floor
Sweating with these rhythms
Rotate this matrix
I'm trapped in legal harness
Kafka-esque, farce like patriarchy
Avoid it to confront it
Then the body memory kicks in
My warrior awakens
My turn to defend
Urban didn't tame me
Then my body memory kicks in
Bosoms and embraces
Oral, anal entrances
Enjoy the satisfaction
If the other is growing
I'm walking hills and valleys
Adore this mystical fog!
This f*cking mist!
These cliffs are just showing off
Then the body memory kicks in
I mime my whole mountains
The moss that I'm made of
I redeem myself
I've been wrestling my fate
Do I accept this ending?
Will I accept my death?
Or struggle claustrophobic?
Fought like a wolverine
With my destiny
Refuse to accept what was meant to be
Then the body memory kicks in, and I trust the unknown
Unfathomable imagination
Surrender to future
Oh, how to capture all this love
And find a pathway for it
Like threading an ocean through a needle
Ribbon through a keyhole
Can't fathom the grasp
I can't grasp the fathom
Then the body memory kicks in
My limbs and tongue take over
Like the ancestors before me
Show me the flow
My sexual DNA
X-rays of my Kama Sutras
Summons different bodies
Compares spines and buttocks
And back of necks
Then my body memory kicks in
It simply takes over
Beastiality
I redeem my body
I wasn't born urban

Features Creatures
When I spot someone
Who is same height as you
And goes to same record stores
I literally think I am five minutes away from love
When I hear someone
With same accent as yours
Asking directions
With the same beard as yours
I literally think I am five minutes away from love
Isn't it odd?
Isn't it peculiar?
These statistics of my mind
Shuffling your features
Assembling a man
Googling love
Warming my heart on this log-fire of love

Courtship
He turned me down
I then downturned another
Who then downturned her
The paralyzing juice of rejection
His veins full of lead
He's left with loving what he lost
More than what he has
My snakeskin, cold in the dark
But warms up in the light
I then upturned a green-eyed giant
Who upturned and entered me
Will we stop seeing what unites us
But only what differs?
The ghosts of old loves
Hovering around his orifices
His orifices
As you narrate your own heart-tale
You thread souls into one beam
The love you gave and have been given
Weave into your own dream
I trust myself to re-archive
My love historic stream
I then downturned another
Who then downturned her
The paralyzing juice of rejection
His veins full of lead
He's left with loving what he lost
More than what he has
My snakeskin, cold in the dark
But warms up in the light
I then upturned a green-eyed giant
Who upturned and entered me
Will we stop seeing what unites us
But only what differs?
The ghosts of old loves
Hovering around his orifices

As you narrate your own heart-tale

Losss
We all are struggling, just doing our best
We've gone through the grinder, suffered loss
Lost to, to which everything flows, an absence which
Attracts floral blooming softly
Soft is my chest, I didn't allow loss
Loss make me hate, didn't harden from pain
This pain we have will always be there
But the sense of full satisfaction too
I opened my heart for you
Your lower lip so heavy on you
My spine curved erotically
We're finally vulnerable
Loss of love, we all have suffered
How we make up for it defines who we, who we are
It defines us, how we overcome it
Recover, repair from loss
Loss of faith just ignites survivors
They stare doubt straight into the eye
I forgive, the past is bondage
Freedom aphrodisiac (aphrodisiac)
I've opened my heart for you
Tied ribbons on my ankles for you
Drew orchids on my thighs for you
Your lower lip so heavy on you
My spine curved erotically
Tied ribbons on my ankles for you
Drew orchids on my thighs for you
Your lower lip so heavy on you
My spine curved erotically
We're finally vulnerable
We've gone through the grinder, suffered loss
Lost to, to which everything flows, an absence which
Attracts floral blooming softly
Soft is my chest, I didn't allow loss
Loss make me hate, didn't harden from pain
This pain we have will always be there
But the sense of full satisfaction too
I opened my heart for you
Your lower lip so heavy on you
My spine curved erotically
We're finally vulnerable
Loss of love, we all have suffered
How we make up for it defines who we, who we are
It defines us, how we overcome it
Recover, repair from loss
Loss of faith just ignites survivors
They stare doubt straight into the eye
I forgive, the past is bondage
Freedom aphrodisiac (aphrodisiac)

Sue Me
My tear duct clogged
My left eye broken
Medicate with warm compress
Extract hardened tears
Sue me, sue me, sue me, all you want
I won't, I won't denounce her origin
Sue me, sue me, sue me, all you want
I won't, I won't denounce ourorigin
I've ducked and dived
Like the mother in Solomon's Tale
To spare our girl
I won't let her get cut in half ever
But it's time to teach her some dignity
Sue me, sue me, sue me, all you want
I won't, I won't denounce our origin
Sue me, sue me, sue me, sue me
I won't, I won't denounce our origin (no I won't)
Who took it from his father
Who took it from his father
Who took it from his father
Let's break this curse
So it won't fall on our daughter
And her daughter
And her daughter
Won't let this sink into her DNA
Sue me, sue me, sue me, sue me all you want
I won't, I won't let you denounce our origin
Sue me, sue me, sue me
Denounce our origin
No I won't
Can't take her suffer
It's so unfair
The things of the father
They've just f*cked it all up
They've f*cked it all up (We had the best family)
We had it all
We had it all in our hands
He just pulled us through the wringer
Narcissistic
My left eye broken
Medicate with warm compress
Extract hardened tears
Sue me, sue me, sue me, all you want
I won't, I won't denounce her origin
Sue me, sue me, sue me, all you want
I won't, I won't denounce ourorigin
I've ducked and dived
Like the mother in Solomon's Tale
To spare our girl
I won't let her get cut in half ever

Sue me, sue me, sue me, all you want
I won't, I won't denounce our origin
Sue me, sue me, sue me, sue me

Who took it from his father

Tabula Rasa
We are all swollen
From hiding his affairs
Let's put it all on the table
Let it all out
It is time
He mustn't steal our light
Clean plate
Tabula rasa for my children
Clean plate
Not repeating the f*ckups of the fathers
My deepest wish
Is that you're immersed in grace and dignity
But you will have to deal with shit soon enough
I hoped to give you the least amount of luggage
Got the right to make your own fresh mistakes
And not repeat others' failures
Clean plate
Tabula rasa for my children
Let's clean up
Break the chain of the f*ckups of the fathers
It is time
For us women to rise and not just take it lying down
It is time
The world is listening
Oh, how I love you
Embarrassed to pass this mess over to you
But he led two lives
Thought ours was the only one
You are strong
You are strong
You are strong
You're so strong
From hiding his affairs
Let's put it all on the table
Let it all out
It is time
He mustn't steal our light
Clean plate
Tabula rasa for my children
Clean plate
Not repeating the f*ckups of the fathers
My deepest wish

But you will have to deal with shit soon enough

Claimstaker
I walk through this land
Stake a claim
With my sense
With my bark
Mark my nest with song (mark my nest)
Hear the, the echo from (echo from the cliff)
I draw laser line through lake
To take a physicality
I inhale this physicality
This forest is in me
This forest is in me
I immerse me in these hills
This is my home oh oh
This is definitely my home, ooh ooh ooh
All this, all this, all this, this is
Stake a claim
With my sense
With my bark
Mark my nest with song (mark my nest)
Hear the, the echo from (echo from the cliff)
I draw laser line through lake
To take a physicality
I inhale this physicality
This forest is in me
This forest is in me

Saint
She always knows when people need stroking
And is attracted to deathbeds and divorces
I dreamed she cared for my dying grandfather
Lying naked face down on his bed
She insists on total presence
And knows how to get through to the rest of us
She has entered me thousandfold often
And undone knots at my most awkward
She reaches out to orphans and refugees
Embraces them with thermal blankets
Her favourite childhood moments
Were at a hospital for the disabled
I've seen her offer empathy to widows
She attends funerals of strangers
Her strongest memory
Is feeding children with leprosy
Music heals too
I'm here to defend it
And is attracted to deathbeds and divorces
I dreamed she cared for my dying grandfather
Lying naked face down on his bed
She insists on total presence
And knows how to get through to the rest of us
She has entered me thousandfold often
And undone knots at my most awkward
She reaches out to orphans and refugees
Embraces them with thermal blankets
Her favourite childhood moments
Were at a hospital for the disabled
I've seen her offer empathy to widows
She attends funerals of strangers
Her strongest memory
Is feeding children with leprosy
Music heals too

Future Forever
Imagine a future and be in it
Feel this incredible nurture, soak it in
Your past is on a loop, turn it off
See this possible future and be in it
Hold fort, for love, forever
We're just momentary vessels
We're just carrying
Trust your head around
Guide your stare elsewhere
Your love is already waiting
You're already in it
Hold fort for love, forever
Watch me form new nests
Weave a matriarchal dome
Build a musical scaffolding
Between sleep and awake
Day and night (between sleep and awake)
You say I mirror peoples' missions at them
Now you mirror at me who I used to be
What I gave to the world, you're giving back at me
Hold fort for love, forever
Feel this incredible nurture, soak it in
Your past is on a loop, turn it off
See this possible future and be in it
Hold fort, for love, forever
We're just momentary vessels
We're just carrying
Trust your head around
Guide your stare elsewhere
Your love is already waiting
You're already in it
Hold fort for love, forever
Watch me form new nests
Weave a matriarchal dome
Build a musical scaffolding
Between sleep and awake
Day and night (between sleep and awake)
You say I mirror peoples' missions at them
Now you mirror at me who I used to be
What I gave to the world, you're giving back at me
Hold fort for love, forever
