A kind of carelessly performed ballad, recorded while I had a flu and my throat was feeling scratchy...but I quite like the imperfections so here it is.
‹ Lyrics
I'm just a voice
In your ears
Nowhere near you
But also right here
Which makes this intimate
But also distant
You can turn it up
Or turn it off
You can shut me up
Or you can listen
Which leads to this
The Permission Slip
Do what you want
Do what feels good
But if you're open
Here's my suggestion
Do what feels good
After having done it
That's what sustains you
As time goes on
Do what feels good
After having done it
It's not always the same as
What feels good right now
Do what feels good in imagining
Do what feels good in doing it
Do what feels after having done it
That's what sustains you as you go on
But I'm just a voice
In your ears
Nowhere near you
But also here
You can shut me up
Or you can listen
Which leads to this
A Permission Slip
I have permission
To share my mission
If you listen
Then you can hear it
You don't need to
Listen
But since you're here
I might as well share it
Do what you want, my dear
But, also consider
How does it feel after you've done it
How will it feel as time goes on
Do what you want
Do what feels good
What feels good right now
And after it's done
Do what feels good in imagining
Do what feels great in doing
Do what feels good after having done it
That's what sustains you - what sustains you
That's what sustains you as you go on
