Umbilical - Mazzy Star

She should have seen the thing in mother’s belly

Grew up alongside her sister’s…

She reached out for nourishment

And falls from her mother’s umbilical cord

With her sister in the womb

One day she opens her mouth wide and swallows (her surroundings)

The red, and orange and the sounds all around her

Now she was (in her corner)

Now she was (in her corner)

Her eyes closed with some kind of complete

Happiness

Some kind of complete

Happiness

Now she can walk in the sunlight

(With a quiet sense of relief inside)

Now she walks in the sunlight

An extra feeling inside her soul, makes her cry

In her mama’s belly… opens her… sisters

One day she opens her mouth wide and swallows (her surroundings)

The red, and orange and the sounds all around her

(In the) sunlight… makes it (go away)

Now she was (in her corner)

In the sunlight

Now she was (in her corner)…she has…

Her eyes closed with some kind of complete

Happiness

Some kind of complete

Happiness

(And now) she walks in the sunlight

(With the extra feeling, inside her)

Now she walks in the sunlight

With the extra feeling (inside her)

(inside her???)
