"Sing Myself Whole" lyrics

When I had my first born son
I couldn't tell no one
And so I told the drum
And on the day he left my home
I felt so all alone
I rocked and moaned
And on the night my mother died
I couldn't even cry
I held it all inside
Until I climbed up on the stage
And let the music play
And sang the pain away

I sing myself whole
My body and my soul
I let it all unfold
I dream in somber tones
And hear them in my bones
They echo around the globe

When it all just got too real
And my baby took those pills
I can't say how it feels
And when I said my last farewell
And I checked in that hotel
All I could do is wail
And when my heart is not so strong
And I feel I don't belong
And someone sings along
And when we're standing in that space
And tears roll down our face
I know I found my place

I sing myself whole
My body and my soul
I let it all unfold
I dream in somber tones
And hear them in my bones
They echo around the globe

And on the day I pass away
Ain't too much you should say
Just let the music play
