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

Might still hear screaming in the hallway from the empty pram

In my mind, I didn't put it there, it was some other fucker'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

Might still hear screaming in the hallway from the empty pram

In my mind, I didn't put it there, it was some other fucker'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.
