Seatbelts On- Claire P. Berrigan

 Mama's crying 

Is he lying? 

Is this true love

I pray on a dove


We wing it 

Time to sing it

Or should I not

Stomach in a knott


A little bit lost

Let's go home

Talking to dad

on nature's phone

Isn't the same

Since we said so long


Winter is closing in

 darker in the mornin'

Depression season

Come say hello

To autumn sorrow


Money in a jar

Life's the car

begin a new

Sea

tbelts on 

time to groove

Inner

Come here darling I’m talking to you now Its your turn to be consoled After the hell you’ve been dished and sold She’s alive inside Alive inside for the first time In a long while Can’t you see her heart is running wild Child at heart From the crowd you’ve been set apart They will never, understand you Just accept who you are now love Its all you can do Oh oh oh Wooah They keep trying to underestimate you But know that you are more mystical You’re more magnetic and metaphysical Than they could ever hope to be (Bridge) Its your time to smile She takes a chance She let’s her heart dance She is strong She needs to believe that she has been all along But she didn’t know it Then before long She woke up to the strength, the light, the fight That ripples in her veins Reconcile with any of your past, present and future pains Then let life ignite (Chorus) One day she woke up and now she say’s For I’m alive inside I’m al...
