Emily Jane White - Womankind lyrics

[Emily Jane White - Womankind lyrics]

Under the shadowed covering
Hold this body as it's shattering
Nerves and hearts lie quivering
Your traumas, how they go unseen

A lifting of the covered dark
The silence there it breaks your heart
Buried sounds I believe you
I tell you now, I always knew

That this happens to women
Oh oh oh and women-kind
Maimed bodies make the longest of lines

So the voices sink deep down
Ropes they pull at buried sounds
Reigning hands they threaten us
To carry inside a silent dust

Our body's not a public space
A corporal autonomous space


Hands that enter your space
They violate the whole human race

Take your body back for you
In sacred flesh held in sacred view
Women girls, all genders align
Survivor's blood, survivors mind

And everyone who cares for others lives
It's time, this silence comes alive
Before it breaks the night
And there are no stars left in our eyes

I hear your silence I always knew
I tell you now i believe you
