[The Jezabels - A Message from My Mothers Passed lyrics]
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
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
