A Message from My Mothers Passed Songtext

von The Jezabels

A message came for me today
The voice was soft and wise
If you go out alone tonight
Just watch your back my child

Something's happening
Something strong

Someone's tapping
At the door

You know that funny feeling
At moments of this type
The senses become keener
We see through other eyes

I walked along the underpass
Cute little rats scattered
In the pale moonlight
And when the moment came to pass
I told them
No
Not me
Not this time

Something's happening
But not what you thought

Someone's tapping
I hope you find
Some safety soon
Or a middle ground

A message came for me again
When I was twenty-two
That's going back in time, you say
Well, that's just what I'll do

For those collecting bodies
In any age
Are looking for a type
Whatever you do, little girl
Just hold your head up high

I said
Higher
Higher
Higher
Reach the sun

You appear
Younger
Younger
Younger
But not too young

Something's happening
Oh no, oh no
It won't be long

You wanna be
Stronger
Stronger
Stronger
But not too strong

Lie safely in the middle ground
The middle ground
The middle ground
