Lyrics

Ripped raw from my father’s head,
My father’s thoughts, left with my nature,
In my nature to bleed, to weave, to dream,
Feed me from the branches of the olive trees,
When my armor’s thin,
And my heart’s grown heavy.

Soothe me with the sound of night falling,
Soothe me with the sound of night falling,
Soothe me with the sound of night falling free.

Let me be small, invisible even,
And go where the sun goes when it’s going down.
I didn’t ask for this, I didn’t ask to be your goddess,
Don’t wanna wear your crown.
I don’t wanna hold love and hate in the same hand,
Don’t want to be your fight or your medicine.
Let me be, let me be small.

No more than a seed in hand,
I see your mind, seeds on the wind fly,
Bearing your burdened name,
Seed of truth, borne in my eye,
Buried in the stream run between us now,
Shed the metal from my skin.

Soothe me with the sound of night falling,
Soothe me with the sound of night falling,
Soothe me with the sound of night falling free.

Let me be small, invisible even,
And go where the sun goes when it’s going down,
I didn’t ask for this, I didn’t ask to be your goddess,
Don’t wanna wear your crown.
I don’t wanna hold love and hate in the same hand,
Don’t want to be your fight or your medicine.
Let me be, let me be small.

Let me be, let’s be small again,
Let me be nothing at all again,
Let me be oh so small again,
All that could be in the blink of an eye,
All that could be in the blink of an eye,
All that could be in the blink of an eye.

Soothe me with the sound of night falling,
Soothe me with the sound of night falling,
Soothe me with the sound of night falling free, oh

Let me be small, invisible even,
And go where the sun goes when it’s going down.
I didn’t ask for this, I didn’t ask to be your goddess,
Don’t wanna wear your crown.
I don’t wanna hold love and hate in the same hand,
Don’t want to be your fight or your medicine.
Oh, let me be, let me be small.

Let me be, let me be, let me be,
Let me be, let me be,
Soothe me, fall free, let me be small.
Let me be, let me be small.
