Calling Magdalene
[Verse 1]
You know, there’s something
I’ve been calling Magdalene
She lives behind the mirror
Somewhere no one else can see
She wears my old confessions
Like a dress of faded green
And every night at midnight
She starts whispering to me
[Pre-Chorus]
She says, You don’t have to carry
Every name they made you wear
You don’t have to keep pretending
That you disappeared
[Chorus]
So I’m calling Magdalene
Calling through the dark
Calling for the woman
Who remembers who we are
I can hear her in the silence
I can feel her underneath
Maybe I’ve been calling Magdalene
Maybe Magdalene is me
[Verse 2]
She knows where I was broken
She knows everything I lost
She kept every little piece of me
No matter what it cost
I thought she was a stranger
Or a ghost inside a dream
But every time I call her
She sounds a little more like me
[Pre-Chorus]
She says, You don’t need forgiveness
For becoming something new
You were never really missing
I was always here with you
[Chorus]
So I’m calling Magdalene
Calling through the dark
Calling for the woman
Who remembers who we are
I can hear her in the silence
I can feel her underneath
Maybe I’ve been calling Magdalene
Maybe Magdalene is me
[Bridge]
Magdalene, Magdalene
Were you waiting all this time?
Magdalene, Magdalene
Were your memories always mine?
I was searching for a savior
But the voice that answered me
Was the woman in the mirror
Saying, You already set us free
[Final Chorus]
Now I’m calling Magdalene
Calling her by name
Calling back the pieces
I was told to hide away
She’s no longer in the shadows
She’s no longer underneath
I was calling for Magdalene
And Magdalene was calling me
[Outro]
You know, there’s something
I’ve been calling Magdalene
I thought that she was someone else—
But she was always me.
