lyrics

I have one hand on the earth
and one hand in the sky
and I'm torn by a greater wisdom
that requires me to be unified

I’ll remedy the seam
with a voice that sings
and bows to every blessing

but what have I done,
I just can’t believe
I knew it all along
a horror lived inside of me

pour gasoline
all on the scene,
so much no water
can save it

the words are unkind,
it's the energy I didn't want to receive
if the house is on fire and you’re asleep
you’ll burn with it

(leave me alone)

the hardest part is steps away
until I'm separated from myself
no barriers can remain
with intentions that are immaterial

after all

the cells inside me were in danger
the cells outside me were endangered
I told myself I don’t own my own body,
the spirit still exists in debris, I'd wager

and when I finally see the earth
above the atmosphere
there will be nothing left
there will be nothing left to fear
because I live here
I am free of fear

there's no oxygen
there's no breathing
only then could I get through
and rightfully value
the preciousness of an earth
able to give life birth

I didn't mean to hurt anything
I was just homesick for the truth

I run, I leave
past the flayed scene
thwarted by
the laws of nature

and when I finally heard
the words I needed,
I wasn’t even able
to speak the language

I could only sense them
I could only forget them
I could only sense them
I could only forget them
I could only sense them
I could only forget them
I could only sense them
I could only forget them

about

Female Pentimento image

Female Pentimento Brooklyn, New York

Brooklyn-based artist Female Pentimento uses sonic poems to recount an artistic practice nourished by biospiritualism and ecological issues. In the work, an inner world of fears, love and desires explode like an open wound: ethereal creatures and spiritual presences inhabit celestial landscapes or more earthly scenarios of devastation.
