Lirieke: Leah Andreone. Veiled. Mother Tongue.

Mother tongue, I speak that language
There are no words but there is meaning
My secret love song, my eyes swell
I'm free

Mother tongue never betrayed me
Inhale your life, one more breath
I'm dancing, lacking wings still
I can fly from you

I could lose everything
Surrendering to you
Like Praying to a God above
Who doesn't even want to know you?

Mother tongue, today, I curse you
Where's my voice
Have I lost my virtue?
How much more can I sacrifice for you?

I could lose everything
Surrendering to you
Like Praying to a God
Who doesn't even want to know you?

Down on my knees for you
Your hands crawling through my hair
I forgot to be cautious here
Finally, I cry, I cry

I could lose everything
Surrendering to you
Like Praying to a God
Who doesn't even want to know you?
