Juniper Lyrics - Noe Venable

Mama oh mama I don't wanna come down 

Not if it's all like it was on the ground 

Hiding my feet 'cause I'm too shy to dance 

Hiding my face behind both of my hands 

Mama oh mama don't make me come down 

'cause I don't know what will come out of my mouth 

People will hear they won't know who I am 

People will hear and they won't understand 

Mama i've seen them the others like me 

Once I could see it was all I could see 

The silent procession that crosses the snow 

In which skeleton ladies like skeletons go 

Mama oh mama up here where I'm free 

I have seen beauty you wouldn't believe 

Juniper's ledges and Juniper's birds 

Where Juniper's edges and mine become blurred 

Mama oh mama if you only heard 

The reasons for living the freedom of words 

The blooming balloon of a thought being born 

Safe in the branches of Juniper's arms 

Mama oh mama I'm not like you think 

Some harrowing walker down narrowing streets 

If I had my way I would bring the whole world 

Every sleepwalker and each hungry girl 

Mama oh mama and old uncle tom 

My father the thinker my daughter the song 

Tell every bell to just wake up and ring 

Tell this whole choir to just shut up and sing 

Mama oh mama I'm holding your hand 

In these glorious dreams in which you understand 

Mama oh mama we're spinning around 

Mama oh mama don't make me come down
