Music: Elephant, 'Calling' (from Album 'Big Thing' 2022) here
"Well I don't mind if the money's no good
I don't mind if I'm misunderstood
Well I can't be sure that I know what it takes
But I'll take the shot and take my foot off the brakes
Sure, I'll work as hard as I can in this life
For a house, a car, a kid and a wife
But I'll try to build something, out on my own
That can't be torn down, after I'm gone
I think that I have found my calling
I tried to make it disappear
You fear it only leaves me falling
But I don't want to get away from here
Sure, I'll work as hard as I can in this life
For a house, a car, a kid and a wife
But I'll try to build something, out on my own
That can't be torn down, after I'm gone
I think that I have found my calling
I tried to make it disappear
You fear it only leaves me falling
But I don't want to get away from here
I think that I have found my calling
I tried to make it disappear
You fear it only leaves me falling
But I don't want to get away from here
I think that I have found my calling
I tried to make it disappear
You fear it only leaves me falling
But I don't want to get away from here
I think that I have found my calling
I tried to make it disappear
You fear it only leaves me falling
But I don't want to get away from here"

Take your time to read the quote below and put your prejudices on pause. Skip lesbian. Pause on womon and womyn. Skip the last name of the author. She claims that all individual homo sapiens of the female gender have a secret belief. The belief that she is on the edge of madness and is losing control. Almost every woman!
