I wrote this song with the humming of my dying freezer, it was leaking freon the entire time, I had no idea.
There have been moments in my life that felt like actual hell, and in my memory they could either burn me forever, or I could wrap myself in a ring of white light, of protection, of love, and go back in time in my head and wrap that loving light around me, around her, and I begin to heal.
I hope this song helps someone else remember to breathe, and wrap themselves with love. We are such godlike creatures, full of grace and might. We are also human, full of mistakes and mortality. We operate in a realm of strange, and I find the only way to stay grounded is to stay connected to that white light, that energy you emit full of goodness and love. Full of all of the love that anyone's ever given to you, or felt for you.
Heal.
lyrics
When I do my healing
I imagine a white light
wrapped around me
and in that white light it's all my love and all my strength and every kind word ever spoken to or about me
just all in there loving me
and holding me safely
White light in a ring around me
my former self looking in at all that hell
white light, in a ring around me
a different life it feels like
a different person
but still it's me all the same
white light in a ring around me
taking all my shame
white light forgiving all the uncomfortable feelings
and seeing them as what they are
white light in ring around me
calling me back into existence here and now
white light in ring around me
in the darkest time it's whispering
all the kind words ever said to or about me
and it's all singing all the sweetest songs that have ever lulled my raging heart
white light in a ring around me
in my memories protecting her
forgiving her
creating her
accepting her
white light.
in a ring around me.
