I have been thinking a lot about Natalie Merchant/10,000 Maniacs for the past few days. My mom was really into them when I was growing up, and I listened to them a lot as well. They are very comforting to me right now, and I wish I had all their albums right now to listen to. So inspiring and beautiful.
"Take me now, baby, here as I am
Hold me close, try and understand
Desire is hunger is the fire I breathe
Love is a banquet on which we feed
Come on now, try and understand
The way I feel under your command
Take my hand, come under cover
They can't hurt you now"
