From Morning Made to Evening Laid - Siv Jakobsen

Blurring vision

A brain in bits

I need escape from this mess I’ve made inside my brain

‘Cause I am frightened all the time

Of losing life, limbs, love, life, limbs, love

Of losing my mind

We’re all sown from splitting bones

With the frailest of fabrics to keep us whole

So it’s no wonder

Our brains are failing

When there’s a constant hum, a dance, a drum inside

Anxiety keeps the frailest bits of me locked in a tin

Shakes them about and brings me an all-consuming fright

It is wild

How we grow

Fraying our seams apart for show

Sown back together in the dark

So we don’t know what’s in or up or down or out

Anxiety keeps the frailest bits of me locked in a tin

Shakes them about and brings me an all-consuming fright
