"Night (DEMO)" lyrics

"Night (DEMO)"

My womanhood is breaking up under all the shame and anger buried under
This path of life is avoiding all advice and others' footsteps fighting on the way
I am still that little girl, looking up my mother's skirt
I see her big dark mystery but get no answers, just embarrassment and shame for asking

Go on, depression, night is long

So when my own dark mystery flowers
I feel the shame of generations' mothers
There is a rage that cannot be explained, to be a woman is to be more like a thing
We never talk about it
And the world is hungry for it
I walk away from family, I give myself away too easily, I fall flat on my face

Go on, depression, night is long
Go through depression, night is long
Darkness, nekyia, night is long
Can't go deeper than I've gone
Darkest before dawn, night is long
I feel so close to the One

Go on, go on, go on
Go on, go on, go on
Go on, go on, go on
Go on, go on, go on
Go on, go on, go on
Go on, go on, go on
Go on, go on, go on

The roots that dare to go so deep into the ground will grow the highest to the sky
