a personal blog this week…..please let me know what you think? What kinds of changes are you facing this Spring?
There’s something massive
And circular
And bigger than me
Bearing and tearing through March
Into spring
Something loping
A flock
A need
A despair
And no lover or mother or father or brother can share
In the change
That is coming
Or the things it will spawn
It is mine for the hunting
It is mine to take on
No telling
What kind of mischief
Or electric sting
But the needle is dropping
And the bells gonna ring
Only I can keep running
Get lost in the cloud
Might never come out
If I come out a princess
If I come out a serpent
Well that’s what we’ll work with
And its possible
I’m leaving the wrong things behind
But my belly’s hot fury is burning
In its own crazy light

Thank you Nate and Yvonne!!!! You two should have seen how excited I got when your comments came through! I’ve never had such quick comments on a song. Its a little scary getting personal on this blog. But this is where I am at.
The music is more optimistic and excited than I imagined it when I read the lyrics – I was imagining it as this wrenching thing, but now it’s more like, “Bring it!”
Yup. Bring it! Thank you for your help on the song Jody. xoxo
I love it too! Full of hope and promise!
I really like that lyric in the chorus<"No telling what kind of mischief or electric sting, but the needle is dropping and the bell's gonna ring".
Nice work, Camille. and I like the sparse recording…it's charming. especially with the "bah bah bah's". : )
Denise! I am so excited to have you commenting here. Thank you so much. I actually thought of you when I was “bah bah bahing!”
You you should edit the blog subject title Bells Gonna Ring | BlogInSong to more specific for your blog post you make. I enjoyed the the writing all the same.
