about

1st single of Celeste Krishna & Monarchs forthcoming LP, 'My Blue House'

lyrics

Woke up to a day that was my nightmare
Couldn’t see where
To put my foot down
I couldn’t take a step
All I saw was fear

I don’t wanna live this way
Feel trapped in my own body
I don’t wanna think this way
My mind’s not
My mind’s not safe

I don’t wanna be myself no more
Break me from the cage that holds me
I don’t wanna be this house no more
Get off me, get this off me!

Quicksand
Moving takes me deeper
Deeper deeper down and down

Cool breeze
I can’t feel it
All I see and feel’s the cloud I’m in

Analysis paralysis
My own mind
Ties knots that it cannot untie

I try to run
I try to get outside
But where I go
There am I

I don’t wanna be myself no more
Break me from the cage that holds me
I don’t wanna be this house no more
Get off me, get this off me!

Though I can’t see out I am made of will
And I know I have the desire to live
Look at all the branches are offering
Getting off my mat and I’m going

When I feel the magnet pull me backwards
Don’t feel better
Just might feel worse

I step forward
I take action
I plant seed inside my garden

Oh god I’m overly overwhelmed
From this tragic fear more tragedy
Then I close my
Eyes and imagine
Where I’m at peace
Where I’m happy

I just wanna be at home
My joy
Is to stay in and tend my garden
Dance around the room with my favorite song on
Take care of all the space within

I just wanna be at home
My joy
Is to stay in and tend my garden
Dance around the room with my favorite song on
Take care of all the space within

I love my house
I love my self
Give thanks for my life
And my well

I love my house
I love my self
Give thanks for my life
And my well
