"Tabula Rasa" lyrics
"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 fuck-ups 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 fuck-ups 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
Thanks to matt for adding these lyrics.

Fiona Apple - "Slow Like Honey" You moved like honey
In my dream last night
Yeah, some old fires
Were burning
You came near to me
And you endeared to me
But you couldn't
Quite discern me
Does that scare you?
I'll let you run away...
Jeff Buckley - "Lilac Wine" I lost myself on a cool damp night
Gave myself in that misty light
Was hypnotized by a strange delight
Under a lilac tree
I made wine from the lilac tree
Put my heart in its recipe
It makes me...
Angel Olsen - "Unfucktheworld" I quit my dreaming the moment that I found you
I started dancing just to be around you
Here's to thinking that it all meant so much more
I kept my mouth shut and opened up the door
I wanted nothing...
St. Vincent - "Masseduction" Black saint, sinner lady
Playin' knockoff soul
A punk rock romantic
Slumped on the kitchen floor
Nuns in stress position
Smokin' Marlboros
Lolita is weeping
The bride is beautiful
Masseduction...
Thom Yorke - "Dawn Chorus" Back up the cul-de-sac
Come on, do your worst
You quit your job again
And your train of thought
If you could do it all again
A little fairy dust
A thousand tiny birds singing
If you must, you must...
