Before the Words Get There

[VERSE 1] — no music - whispered spoken female voice echo The body knows it first Long before the mind agrees A tightness or a softening A quiet in the knees [pause] It doesn't wait for language It doesn't need to explain It's already answered something Before I've asked again [HOOK] Before the words get there Before I understand The body's already holding What I haven't planned [VERSE 2] Not thinking my way through it Not solving what I feel Just noticing the weather Moving through what's real [pause] A breath that drops the shoulders A softening in the chest The body always tells me Long before the rest [HOOK] Before the words get there Before I understand The body's already holding What I haven't planned [BRIDGE] Just feel it Don't fix it Just feel it [OUTRO - instrumental fade]
