Tina Dickow - Count to ten (2007)

There are faces, there are smiles
So many teeth, too many arms and legs and ass and flashing buttons all around me

I’m watching, I’m breathing, I’m pushing, I’m wishing that these walls would not be talking quite so loudly

I have burnt down once before
Pulled myself up from the floor
And I’m looking for a reason to stay standing

But sometimes it’s just too much, it’s not enough, it’s something else,
It’s so much bigger than my head, it’s too demanding

Sometimes, the fastest way to get there is to go slow
And sometimes, if you want to hold on, you’ve got to let go

I’m going to close my eyes and count to ten
I’m going to close my eyes and when I open them again
Everything will make sense to me then
