Shall I Be a Saint

from Silence Is Kind - EP by Johanna Glaza

/

lyrics

SHALL I BE A SAINT

Shall I be a saint and live in the mountains
Gather my desires into a treasure box
Throw it from a mountain into the sea
Shall I learn kindness from the trees

Shall I become a gypsy man
Stroke your heart instead of a fiddle
Shall I travel to New York City
And write you letters from there

Shall I wear no crown if I’ll be the Queen
Shall I ban computers and then TV
Shall I unite all my demons
Shall I set them free

Given so much choice we cannot choose

Shall I be a man and make love to the mermaids
Finish all the wars someone started for me
Shall I finally become a woman
Out of our bodies make a nest

Shall I become old and beautiful
With the Moon map on my face
Shall I waste no time and just go to Hollywood
Like that Scottish man used to shout for me

Given so much choice we cannot choose
