Swaddling Me 03:10
I have felt me I have become a thing in the grass a thing in the grass I have felt peace swaddling me I have felt you Oh, the dark feeble night I have felt you swaddling me, the wind brings me back again I have felt love afforded by all I’m the thing laying in the grass Breathing in air breathing in all I see all that surrounds me
2.
I'll wake up all whistling loud I'll make this day proud and do all I can to love all and feel all I can I've been what I've been before life began Oh, this endless bounty Oh, our harvest's plenty I'll grow up like fertile seed and learn all I need to be who I am and hold on to family and friends to see all their dreams come true in the end Oh, this endless bounty Oh, our harvest's plenty

I've Learned 09:56
I’ve learned the strength inside me I’ve learned there’s nothing to fear now Oh, the strength to be brave, to be eternal to be a wave in a tide receding To follow the moon beneath the sun, swaddled in hope surrounded by all, oh oh oh I’ve learned the foundation beneath me is built out of starry nights Oh to be strong enough to be eternal Oh to be brave enough to be in it for all to see I’ll grow my wings I’ll make this day perfect Unified by love, unified by hope bravely in my love cuz I have found you in myself I’ve been given many strengths I am full of ignorance but I’m growing faster than I thought Oh, won’t you be my maker, won’t you be my nest? Oh, won’t you be my lover? I will make this day perfect I will make this day sanctified I will make all my friends my lovers I will make my home what surrounds me I am evil inside but I’m getting stronger I am full of pride, but I have found my strength in you Lord I am bringing you home to me with everything I am bringing you home a gift from the gods my faith

about

Recorded live at Visual Arts Collective on August 18th, 2009, three days after returning home from the hospital following the tragic accident that took the life of my mother and left me with a broken face and body. With my jaw wired shut, still in shock, grateful to be alive, deeply saddened and in a cloud, I played my music. I suppose the show must go on.

Dedicated to the delicate, mindful life of my dear sweet mother, Karen Kristine Lindsey Jensen. All the utmost love and remembrance.
