To the Tune of Strong Enough by Sheryl Crow

.

Cast your shadow long tonight

Hollow as the wind is high

I said let down your hair at Babel’s end

Are you strong enough to be my man?

My man

.

Nothing’s true and nothing’s right

That so well all I know is fight

‘Cause you can’t change the way I am

Are you strong enough to be my man?

.

Cry to me

I’m here until you sleep

Cry to me

But please don’t leave

Don’t leave

.

I have a face I cannot show

I make the rules up as I go

Just try to love me if you can

Are you strong enough to be my man?

My man

.

When I’ve shown you that I just don’t care

When it’s real don’t mean it’s always there

When you’ve tumbled down you’ll understand

Would you be man enough to be my man?

.

Cry to me

I’m here until you sleep

Cry to me

But please don’t leave

Don’t leave

To the Tune of Who Will Save Your Soul by Jewel

.

People losing what’s left of life through a screen

They say just gotta hustle, and you agree

He says, “Bring those girls in short shorts thirteen years old”

Says, “Stay sweet to me and a star is born”

Another check another tip if you just lick boots and kiss ass

So heaven blessed for that Puritan work ethic but

.

Who will save your souls?

When God went where the bees gone

Who will save your souls?

After all those lies that you told, boy

Now, who will save your souls?

If you won’t save your own?

.

We try to cleanse and manifest and nonviolently protest

The cops get off and off if you’ve got a thousand cameras

Another day, another dollar, another sign, a fist is power

Drain the grid just use wind and solar

Starve as many gods as there are flowers so we don’t feel change

And think religion growth benign

Done no wrong ain’t the same as doin’ right

There’s no better place without sting of sacrifice

.

Who will save your souls?

When it comes to the Johns now

Who will save your souls?

After all those lies that you told, boy?

And who will save your souls?

If you won’t save your own?

.

Some are walkin’, some are talkin’, some are influencers

Silver tongue enough followers and it might pay your bills

There are subscriptions to feed and there are mouths to pay

Ballot box of Devils so long as you’re okay for today

Says he loves you but where’s all the fun all

“Hun I’m polyamorous

HPV but it’s all love

More sex means more empowerment

My dick has profit margins so”

Just get out on the streets girls, and bust your butts

.

Who will save your soul?

When you’re just a featherweight?

Who will save your souls?

After all those lies that you told, boy?

And who will save your soul?

If you won’t save your own?

Try this new supplement yeah just

Buy your time, just buy your time

To the Tune of Possession by Sarah McLachlan

.

Listen through the leaves love

There’s no distance can divide

Timber creaks in yearning

Ripples back in time

The night is my companion

And solitude my guide

Would I spend forever here

And not be satisfied

.

And I would be the one

To hold you down

Kiss you so hard

I’ll take your breath away

And after I’d, wipe away the tears

Just close your eyes dear

.

Through this world I’ve hungered

For someone unafraid

Trying to do a Mother’s work

To find the Earth enslaved

Oh you speak to me in riddles

You speak to me in rhymes

Your body aches to breathe my breath

My words keep you alive

.

Beneath these stars you wander

It’s morning that you dread

Another day of holding on

This path they warn against

Oh into the sea of waking dreams

I’m waiting just outside

Nothing stands between us here

And I won’t be denied

.

And I would be the one

To hold you down

Kiss you so hard

I’ll take your breath away

And after I’d, wipe away the tears

Just close your eyes dear

.

I’ll hold you down

Kiss you so hard

I’ll take your breath away

And after I’d, wipe away the tears

Just close your eyes

.

Listen, ever since I was a little girl I knew I needed to be the terrifying Older woman in a gothic romance. Like oh nooooo, does your oddly fair and slender son have a Touch of the Melancholy? Does he…Commune with Spirits? Exhibit Fits of Divine Madness? Might I suggest he Take the Airs of my Sprawling Forest Estate and assume residence in my Very Normal Perfectly Safe Ancient Castle Covered in Moss? I merely wish to…watch him traipse about in the night scurring him own self like… a beautiful deer in a white dress shirt. No, that is not my tummy rumbling. Those are sounds of pure contentment. Nothing but honorable intentions I assure you.
