overcoming trauma, your own and the trauma you inherit and how your ancestry is seeped within you.
lyrics
Katie was the mother of Penelope
Her grandmother was Sofia and her mother was Stefani
They all hated lying and gritted their teeth
Through long Sunday services
Generational trauma
Healing throughout time
I believe in you
To see this through
Holiness is fragile and policed
Through eloquent banquets and ageing male priests
Who memorise your names and affairs
And stares whenever you’re not there
Your heart holds them within
Guiding through everything
Your mother is holding your hand
If only you could understand
You never met your Great-Great Grandmother
But she laughed like you
And her eyes always lit up
When she saw the sea glistening in the evening
And she had to deal with the same sort of grieving
By screaming, screaming as loud as you can
