Quicksand - Björk

Define her abyss

Show it respect

Then a celestial nest

Will grow above

When I’m broken I am whole

And when I’m whole I’m broken

Our mother’s philosophy

It feels like quicksand

And if she sinks

I’m going down with her

Locate her black lake

The steam from this pit

Will form a cloud

For her to live on

When she’s broken she is whole

And when she’s whole she’s broken

Our mother’s philosophy

It feels like quicksand

And if she sinks

I’m going down with her

Hackle this darkness

Up to the light

Where choreographed oxygen

Embroiders the air

When we’re broken we are whole

And when we’re whole we’re broken

We are the siblings of the sun

Lets step into this beam

Every time you give up

You take away our future

And my continuity

And my daughter’s

And her daughters

And her daughters…
