lyrics

come through
come through
won’t you?
crack my door open
to the truth, ya
then gimme more of it
all this shame I’ve carried
all the pain I’ve buried
oh and my body oh gets scared
ya my body oh gets scared
so slow it down
turn the dial down
feel the ground
and breathe with me
call them around
ohh
can you feel them now?
the sky surrounds
the earth beneath
ohh

all our little ones
each generation can
so dear
we need to grow them up
expand beyond
it’s cuz of us they’re here
how far we’ve come
will we teach them fear or love?
still trying to find home

teach them fear or love
do we teach them fear or love?

in our touch
teach them fear or love
in our gaze
teach them fear or love
our Bodies
teach them fear or love
how we play
teach them fear or love
it’s in our touch
teach them fear or love
in our gaze
teach them fear or love

what do you see?
what do I see?
what do we see?

I shake and shake
as my bottom lip begins to tremble
then I break down
before I reassemble
weaving streaming of light
through the fabric of life
who comes through?
as I rise
new
before your eyes
bew
before your eyes

all our little ones
each generation can
so dear
we need to grow them up
expand beyond
it’s cuz of us they’re here
how far we’ve come
will we teach them fear or love?
still trying to find home

teach them fear or love
do we teach them fear or love?

in our touch
teach them fear or love
in our gaze
teach them fear or love
our Bodies
teach them fear or love
how we play
teach them fear or love
it’s in our touch
teach them fear or love
in our gaze
teach them fear or love

what do you see?
what do I see?
what do we see?

come through
come through
won’t you?
crack my door open
to the truth, ya
then gimme more of it
all this shame I’ve carried
all the pain I’ve buried
oh and my body oh gets scared
ya my body oh gets scared

about

Scinnlaece image

Scinnlaece Minneapolis, Minnesota

Scinnlæce means "witch", or "veiled healer", in Old English.
I chose this name for my artistic project, because I am a witchy healer person of northwestern European descent, connected to the unseen worlds.
