Quicksand
BJORK · Vulnicura 2015 · Track 09 of 09
Define her abyss Show it respect Then a celestial nest Will grow above
When I'm broken I am whole And when I'm whole I'm broken
Our mother's philosophy It feels like quicksand And if she sinks I'm going down with her
Locate her black lake The steam from this pit Will form a cloud For her to live on
When she's broken she is whole And when she's whole she's broken
Our mother's philosophy It feels like quicksand And if she sinks I'm going down with her
Hackle this darkness Up to the light Where choreographed oxygen Embroiders the air
When we're broken we are whole And when we're whole we're broken
We are the siblings of the sun Lets step into this beam Every time you give up You take away our future And my continuity and my daughter's And her daughters And her daughters...
