Mouth Mantra
Björk / Oddný Eir
My throat was stuffed
My mouth was sewn up
Banned from making noise
I was not heard
Remove this hindrance
My throat feels stuck
I was not allowed
I was not heard
There is vocal sadness
I was separated
From what I can do
What I'm capable of
Need to break up
Vicious habits
Do something
I haven't done before
In vow of silence
Explore the negative space
Around my mouth
It implodes, black hole
With jaw fallen in
In fallen jaw, jaw fallen in
I am not hurt, I am not hurt
This tunnel has enabled
Thousands of sounds
I thank this trunk
Noise pipe
I have followed a path
That took sacrifices
Now I sacrifice this scar
Can you cut it off?
