[Verse 1]
Took the mother road
Down to goddess flesh
I swallowed the key
I want to learn to swallow my pain
Hallowed the fruit, hallowed thy name
[Chorus]
Guess I needed something to break me
Guess I needed something to shake me up
Guess I needed someone to break me
Guess I needed someone to shake me out
[Verse 2]
Afraid to live, afraid to die
Building a broken but precious web
Like a spider in Chernobyl
And when the cattle low
Something is on the horizon
[Pre-Chorus]
I do not have a child
But I'm old enough to know some pain
And I'm hell-bent on loving you
Women know what it is to endure
Took the mother road
Down to goddess flesh
I swallowed the key
I want to learn to swallow my pain
Hallowed the fruit, hallowed thy name
[Chorus]
Guess I needed something to break me
Guess I needed something to shake me up
Guess I needed someone to break me
Guess I needed someone to shake me out
[Verse 2]
Afraid to live, afraid to die
Building a broken but precious web
Like a spider in Chernobyl
And when the cattle low
Something is on the horizon
[Pre-Chorus]
I do not have a child
But I'm old enough to know some pain
And I'm hell-bent on loving you
Women know what it is to endure
