Give It to the Ground | Dune Transmission

...Intro... Dragonflies above the highway Silver flashes in the heat Then a broken wing came falling And landed somewhere near my feet You looked at me like you already knew Something had begun You said “Go…” So I walked toward the sun ...1st Verse... I followed nothing but a feeling Through the grass and through the green Then the path pulled open slowly Like a doorway I hadn’t seen One more step And there they were Miles of moving gold I forgot the thing I came there carrying For one breath… I just looked ...Pre-Chorus… Then something in me whispered Don’t move Don’t run Let this come ...Chorus… Give it to the ground You don’t have to hold it all Let the wind take what it can Let the rest of it fall You survived by carrying What you couldn’t put down You don’t need it in your hands now Give it to the ground ...Post-Chorus… Let it go Let it move Let the earth Carry you ...2nd Verse... I watched the ridge against the thunder And the first tear found my face Then the wind came hard behind it Like the sky had joined the ache Every breath pulled something deeper Every memory found a name When I softened So did the weather When I broke It rose again ...2nd Pre-Chorus... I tried standing through the pressure Till my knees said That’s enough So I put both hands beneath me And stopped pretending I was tough ...Chorus… Give it to the ground You don’t have to hold it all Let the wind take what it can Let the rest of it fall You survived by carrying What you couldn’t put down You don’t need it in your hands now Give it to the ground ...Breakdown… No lesson No explanation No reason I could name Just hands disappearing into sand And years leaving my frame I cried until the crying Wasn’t asking to be fixed I let the earth be stronger Than the grip I had on it And somewhere through the wind… I heard: Give it back. ...Bridge… Give back the anger Give back the fear Give back the voice That says you disappear Give back the story That kept you small You can remember Without carrying it all A black wing crossed the sunlight And everything went still Not empty Not finished Just quiet enough to feel ...Final Chorus… I gave it to the ground I didn’t have to hold it all Let the wind take what it could Let the rest of it fall I survived by carrying Now I know how to put it down There is strength inside surrender I gave it to the ground ...Post-Chorus… Let it go Let it move Let the earth Carry you I am safe I am calm I am patient I am present I am loving I am kind … … I can stay here In this life I am safe I am calm I am here ...Outro… Same path through the grass Different weight in my hands…
