Hanged Woman - Folk from the Boat - Episode 146

This week I've written a new song! Hanged Woman for voice, cello and frame drum is based on ideas about suffering to gain wisdom. Lyrics below.

Water flow under me
Cold mirror take my grief
But leave me some

Hanging from this tree
Nine days and nine nights
Seeking wisdom

Looking through a lens
At a place that formed just before shame

I will go through hell for you
But know I won’t come back the same
Come back the same

Make a wound with this spear
Clear emotion flows from me
It forms a pool

Come and drink from this storm
I cannot hold it in
Within this fool

Gazing through a lens
At a place that formed just before blame

I will go through hell for you
But know I won’t come back quite tame
Come back quite tame

Let it go, make some space
And see what enters in
Hold a stake

Every path takes a toll (skål!)
And this one’s on the edge
Of what I can take

Look through my own eye
At a world that just turned upside down

I’ll bring all this back for you
But bring me back before I drown
Before I drown
