Play It Out

When my body can no longer make a mother of me
Will I change my notion of time?
And will you change your mind?
On me and I′ll be something to leave behind
When I scatter ashes in the river’s water
Will I change my notion of family?
How long before I′m happy again?
And I see those who still surround me

I will rule the world
Rock the cradle with a babeless hand
Just watch me build castles in the hourglass sand
Mind still hear screaming in the hallway from the empty pram
In my mind, I didn’t put it there
Was some motherfucker’s plan

I wanna age with excitement
Feel my world expand
Go grey and feel delighted
Don′t just look sexy on a man
Just let me play it out
Just let me play it out

When I get there
A place in time where life brings me elsewhere
Will I change my notion of self?
In sickness and good health
I promise to love and cherish myself

I will rule the world
Rock the cradle with a babeless hand
Just watch me build castles in the hourglass sand
Mind still hear screaming in the hallway from the empty pram
In my mind, I didn′t put it there
Was some motherfucker’s plan
I wanna age with excitement
Feel my world expand
Go grey and feel delighted
Don′t just look sexy on a man
Just let me play it out
Just let me play it out
