Noe Venable - Juniper lyrics

rate me

Mama oh mama I don't wanna come down

Not if it's all like it was on the ground

Hiding my feet ‘cause I'm too shy to dance

Hiding my face behind both of my hands

Mama oh mama don't make me come down

‘cause I don't know what will come out of my mouth

People will hear they won't know who I am

People will hear and they won't understand

Mama i've seen them the others like me

Once I could see it was all I could see

The silent procession that crosses the snow

In which skeleton ladies like skeletons go

Mama oh mama up here where I'm free

I have seen beauty you wouldn't believe

Juniper's ledges and Juniper's birds

Where Juniper's edges and mine become blurred

Mama oh mama if you only heard

The reasons for living the freedom of words

The blooming balloon of a thought being born

Safe in the branches of Juniper's arms

Mama oh mama I'm not like you think

Some harrowing walker down narrowing streets

If I had my way I would bring the whole world

Every sleepwalker and each hungry girl

Mama oh mama and old uncle tom

My father the thinker my daughter the song

Tell every bell to just wake up and ring

Tell this whole choir to just shut up and sing

Mama oh mama I'm holding your hand

In these glorious dreams in which you understand

Mama oh mama we're spinning around

Mama oh mama don't make me come down
