• Somptin Hapnin (Water in Me)

I wish I were as strong and as flexible as an ancient tree
So I could stand up tall feeling the wind and the... and the...
Water in me
I am all alone here
Evening-- the lunar light lies behind the clouds
Darkness and night come, wishes, fear, to push my voice
Down behind the outline of my breath, stark against the wind
Drops of sharp reminders of the sadness I hold up... and shame...
Shame for all the moments I have head-tripped the ones I loved most
But I'm mending now towards a peaceful exit of that ghost
I'm mending now towards a peaceful exit of that ghost
I'm mending now
I wish I were as strong and as flexible as an ancient tree
So I could stand up tall, feeling the wind and the...
Water in me
The water in me, the water in me (water in me...) water...

If I could go back, well, I would do it all differently,
Replacing the sore spots with generosity and dignity
If I could go back, I would do it all differently,
Replacing the sore spots with generosity and dignity
Go back to all my times of underhanded savvy and
Swear on the silhouette of the strongest tree
Swear on the silhouette of the strongest tree
Swear on the silhouette of the strongest tree
I would be kinder, more forgiving, and more humble
I'll be kinder, more forgiving, and more humble
I'll be kinder, more forgiving, and more humble
Forgiving myself as well
'cause I, too, am fumbling
As I stumble... to the eye of the storm
When I am naked, I surrender my strength
Because I am so small and irrelevant
I surrender my pride because I am so small and irrelevant
I surrender my name because I am so small and irrelevant
Surrender my pride because I am so small and irrelevant
I surrender my name because I am so small and irrelevant
So small and irrelevant
So small and irrelevant
But the storm sings on, and I am open to a sweetening
I am freezing, and screaming, and there is no one here for questioning
And if I'm chanting and undoing
Chanting and undoing (la la lo lo lo the water)
Chanting and undoing (la la la lo lo the water in me)
(oooh heyyy) (heyyy I...) (I...)

This storm is my greatest grandmother
She is my truth-teller
Nothing stops her from delivering the secrets she uncovers
She gives me warmth of sunray, rain daggers against my skin
Heavy storm pierce me, wind howl against my offering
Wind howl against my offering
Wind howl against my offering
Drown me out so I can forget
Through the softening
Drown me out so my thoughts come through, this time redeeming
Give me the strength and flexibility of an ancient tree
So I can stand up tall, feeling the wind and the
Water in me (the... the... water in me)
This storm is my greatest grandmother
She is my truth-teller
Nothing stops her from delivering the secrets she uncovers
Example: she gives me warmth of sunray, rain daggers against my skin
Heavy storm pierce me, and wind howl against my offering
Wind howl against my offering
Drown me out so I can force through the softening
Drown me out so my thoughts come through this time
Give me the strength and flexibility of an ancient tree
So i can stand up tall, feeling the wind and
Water in me
Water in me
Water in me
Water in me...
