Mother Tongue

>From Album: Veiled

Intro:    


Mother tongue

I speak that language

There are no words

But there is meaning

My secret love song

My eyes swell
       
I'm free


Mother tongue

Never betrayed me

Inhale your life

One more breath

I'm dancing

Lacking wings still
                         
I can fly from you


I could lose everything
                         
Surrendering to you
         
Like praying to a god above
                             
Who doesn't even want to know you


Mother tongue

Today I curse you

Where's my voice

Have I lost my virtue
                                                 
How much more can I sacrifice for you


I could lose everything
                         
Surrendering to you
         
Like praying to a god above
                             			
Who doesn't even want to know you


Down on my knees for you

Your hands crawling through my hair
                     
I forgot to be cautious here
                  
Finally I cry I cry


I could lose everything

Surrendering
         
Like praying to a god
                             
Who doesn't even want to know you
