Untie the braids in your hair, now run your fingers through
This is not me speaking this is you
Hold one hand over your heart, now sleep
This is your overnight religion
Wake, but not outside of yourself
Leave one eye open and shut the other
Know the light by knowing also the dark
Do not stand in your shadow and wonder why it's night
The moon will rise in the east and set in the west
When it is full you will hunger, let it feed on you this time
Learn to give yourself
This is not me speaking this is you
Hold one hand over your heart, now sleep
This is your overnight religion
Wake, but not outside of yourself
Leave one eye open and shut the other
Know the light by knowing also the dark
Do not stand in your shadow and wonder why it's night
The moon will rise in the east and set in the west
When it is full you will hunger, let it feed on you this time
Learn to give yourself
