Noe Venable - Juniper lyrics

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
