Grace VanderWaal - Brand New (Performance Video)

Grace VanderWaal - Brand New (Performance Video) Co-Choreographed and Co-Directed by Grace VanderWaal ☆ CHILDSTAR: Out Now https://gracevanderwaal.ffm.to/childstar I co-choreographed and co-directed this very vulnerable performance piece with Luca Renzi to tell the story of Brand New through physical storytelling. This video is part of a 5 song, 18 minute performance piece that I created for CHILDSTAR. Hope you enjoy . -Grace LYRICS Cold room Can you hear me? Blood is on my hands Am I filthy? Define the guilt that I’m supposed to hold Lights out Do you fear me? Against the law of nature Would you bless me? To keep all that I have, do nothing wrong. I’m the woman I’m the sin A blemish burned Into your skin I’m not the mother of your loss I’m not the sister of your lust Desperate I pray Run the bath in the water I’ll bathe I’ll do anything that you say If I can be brand new An apple to taste Burn me up as I’m tied to the stake And my skin will rot I’m staring at my grave Just hoping to be brand new What if I want to be pretty? What if I want to perform? I don’t want to be nothing What’s my voice without your words So I’ll speak the language But it’s a one sided design It cuts my tongue when I speak it Because it’s yours no it’s not mine Cause I’m the woman I’m the sin A blemish burned Into your skin I’m not the mother of your loss I’m not the sister of your lust Desperate I pray Run the bath in the water I’ll bathe I’ll do anything that you say If I can be brand new An apple to taste Burn me up as I’m tied to the stake And my skin will rot I’m staring at my grave Just hoping to be brand new Desperate I pray Run the bath in the water I’ll bathe I’ll do anything that you say If I can be brand new An apple to taste Put me up as I’m tied to the stake Rotting skin I stare at my grave Just hoping to be brand new ☆☆☆ Follow Grace VanderWaal: Instagram:   / gracevanderwaal   Facebook:   / gracevanderwaalmusic   TikTok:   / gracevanderpeepee   #GraceVanderwaal #Proud #CHILDSTAR
