speak loud and then hang up the phone. hang up the phone. hang up
the phone. speak loud and then hang up the phone. i trust that you
heard what i said.

quiet your mind and open your heart. open your heart.
open your heart.
calm your mind down so you can open your heart
i’m not going to say it again.

dance well so you can leave it all there. leave it all there.
leave it all there.
dance hard so you can leave it all there.
soft with yourself and the pain.

wash clean so you can swim in your skin. shrug off the sin.
be born again.
wash clean so the day can begin. i’m not going to say it again.
