From the recording I Am My Own
Lyrics
Getting back to me
Riding the winds
Of sometimes dusty seasons
Adding up all of the reasons that I need to change
To grow, to go the places I would go
It’s time to grow a thicker skin
And it’s time to love the skin that I’m in
(Chorus)
I’m gonna wrap my arms…
Around my own neck
I’m gonna stroke my own hair
And next time there’s no one and it all looks bleak
I can tell you that I’m gonna be there
All that I really need
Is the earth under my feet
And the water can take all of my weight
Won’t you wash away, wash away
All of this hate
(chorus)
