Deeper Than Bones

I can hear the river singing
I can hear her call my name
I can feel the river flowing
flowing deep within my veins
Let the crystal waters lead me to my home
In the ocean of perfection
That lives deeper than my bones
It lives deeper than my bones
Can you hear the river singing
Can you hear her call your name
Can you feel the river flowing
Flowing deep within your veins
Let the crystal waters lead you to your home
In the ocean of perfection
That lives deeper than your bones
It lives deeper than your bones
Will you meet me in the water
Will you leave fear on the shore
Will you come and swim beside me
And we'll live in pain no more
Let the crystal waters lead us to our home
In the ocean of perfection
That lives deeper than our bones
It lives deeper than our bones
It lives deeper than our bones
It lives deeper than our bones

Ocean Song
04:23
|

Oh take from me this suffering
And take from me this yearning
For life without death
For light without dark
For knowledge without the learning
Lead me to the ocean's edge
To the tides of holy water
Baptize me in the cool moonlight
And take me down
Mother, take me down
To the place beneath the water
And wash away this suffering
And wash away this yearning
For life without death
For light without dark
For knowledge without the learning
I knock on the door of the one who knows
She opens the ancient castle
I meet her gaze eyes open wide
And I follow her down
Yes I follow her down
Past the depths of my unknowing
Please take from me this suffering
Please take from me this yearning
For life without death
For light without dark
For knowledge without the learning
I dance with her on the ocean's floor
In a current always churning
I learn the ancient waltz of time
What is born must die
What is dead must rise
What is lost is still returning

Purify me
Purify me

Take from me what is not free
Purify me
Wash away what hinders me

Purify my eyes so I can see the beauty all around me
Purify my ears so I can hear the music singing through me
Purify me

Purify me
Purify me
I surrender
I surrender
I surrender all of me
I surrender
I surrender
I surrender my careful plans
Let them fly free
Trust their wings to carry them with more grace than I can comprehend
I surrender
I surrender
Everything I think I am
Purify me
Purify me
Purify me
Purify me
Purify my voice so I can speak the simple truth with clarity
Purify my heart so I can love with strength and vulnerability
Purify me
Purify me
Purify me
Purify me
I surrender
I surrender
I surrender all of me
I surrender
I surrender
I surrender my deepest prayers
Let them fly free
Trust their wings to carry them with more grace than I can comprehend

I surrender
I surrender all of them
I surrender
I surrender
I surrender all I am

Holy Work

Let no one distract you from the holy work of pleasure
Let no one dissuade you of the holiness of pleasure
Hold it for those who cannot
Send it to those who dare not
Let no fear distract you from the holy work of pleasure
Let no pain dissuade you of the holiness of pleasure
Let no shame distract you from the holy work of pleasure
Let no hate dissuade you of the holiness of pleasure
Hold it for those who cannot
Send it to those who dare not
Cast your fear
Cast your pain
Cast your shame
Cast your hate
To the alchemical fire of pleasure
Let go
Surrender it to the flame
Let go
Surrender it to the flame
Let go
Surrender it to the flame
Hope is born
Peace is born
Love is born
You were born
From a spark of holy pleasure
Surrender
Surrender to who you are
Your own love is the alchemical gold of pleasure
Your own love is the alchemical gold of pleasure
Your love is the gold of pleasure
Your love
Your love is the gold of pleasure
Your love is the gold
Your love is the gold of pleasure

Give the lady everything she wants
Give her what she wants
Everything she wants
Give the lady everything she wants
Then give her what she wants some more
Then give her what she wants even more
She will give you more than you imagine
She will give you more than you know
She will give you more than you hoped for
Everything you dreamed of and more
Everything you dreamed of and more
Give yourself the gift of being honest
Give yourself the gift of being true
Listen to the wisdom of your body
Have faith in where she's leading you
Have faith in where she's leading you
Give the lady everything she wants
Give her what she wants
Everything she wants
Give the lady everything she wants
Then give her what she wants some more
Then give her what she wants even more
She will give you more than you imagine
She will give you more than you know
She will give you more than you hoped for
Everything you dreamed of and more
Everything you dreamed of and more
Give your love without expectation
Give your love without keeping score
Let her guide you beyond your limitations
To everything you dreamed of and more
To everything you dreamed of and more
Give the lady everything she wants
Give her what she wants
Everything she wants
Give the lady everything she wants
Then give her what she wants some more
Then give her what she wants even more
She will give you more than you imagine
She will give you more than you know
She will give you more than you hoped for
Everything you dreamed of and more
Everything you dreamed of and more

When I Rise
04:11
|

When I rise, let me rise
Like a bird, joyfully
When I fall, let me fall
like a leaf, gracefully
When I live, let me live
Like a river running free
When I move on to the next place
My love will be eternally
When I rise, let me rise
Like a bird, joyfully
When I fall, let me fall
like a leaf, gracefully
When I live, let me live
Like a river running free
When I move on to the next place
My love will be eternally
When there's sorrow in my heart may it be transformed
To the rays of sun that shine after a storm
When there's laughter in my spirit set it free
Let it rise like a bird, joyfully
When I rise, let me rise
Like a bird, joyfully
When I fall, let me fall
like a leaf, gracefully
When I live, let me live
Like a river running free
When I move on to the next place
My love will be eternally
Eternally
Eternally

Come Home

Oh fly to me on soft wings
Oh fly to me
Come home
Come home to me
Come home
Calling to the ones I left behind
Calling to the ones long stolen
Calling to the ones I sold not knowing they were golden
I am calling you back to me
I am calling you home
I am calling all my broken pieces to come home
Oh, fly to me on soft wings
Oh fly to me
Come home
Come home to me
Come home
Calling to the ones I left behind
Calling to the ones long stolen
Calling to the ones I sold not knowing they were golden
I have cleared a space for you
I have cleared your home
I have a cleared a space for you to return
Return, come home
Return
Return
Come home

Already Know
05:17
|

My life is mine alone to live
I've come this far to learn to give
Myself the space to take it slow
And trust my soul's desire to grow
Oh hear my prayers wash over my soul
Remind me what I already know
My heart is mine alone to take
Out of its shell though it may break
Oh take me on a journey of
Surrender through the grace of love
Oh hear my prayers wash over my soul
Remind me what I already know
My mind is mine alone to fill
With thoughts, ideas, cares, and will
I watch them as they fade away
Inviting in the space to pray
Oh hear my prayers wash over my soul
Remind me what I already know
My breath is mine alone to send throughout my body end to end
Oh move through me and gently heal
The wounds that left me scared to feel
Oh hear my prayers wash over my soul
Remind me what I already know
My voice is mine alone to give
Expression to the song that lives
Inside my heart, I let it flow
And trust it knows just where to go
Oh hear my prayers wash over my soul
Remind me what I already know
My story is mine alone to tell
The pleasure and pain on which I dwell
Depend on how I choose to see
My own responsibility
Oh hear my prayers wash over my soul
Remind me what I already know
My life is mine alone to live
I've come this far to learn to give
Myself the space to take it slow
And trust my soul's desire to grow
Oh hear my prayers wash over my soul
Remind me what I already know
Oh hear my prayers wash over my soul
Remind me that I already know

Carrie Firestone New York
Carrie Firestone's music was born from a vision of a tree that appeared in a moment of hardship and said, "You must sing your way out of this." With the support of a circle of musical friends she did just that. Her debut album, Deeper Than Bones, is a deeply personal collection of songs that double as prayers unbound from dogma, unabashed in their celebration of womanhood in its myriad forms. ... more
