lyrics from âsecond doorâ
to be comfortable
when itâs uncomfortable
#nostalgiaiskillingus
âWe do not grow absolutely, chronologically. We grow sometimes in one dimension, and not in another; unevenly. We grow partially. We are relative. We are mature in one realm, childish in another. The past, present, and future mingle and pull us backward, forward, or fix us in the present. We are made up of layers, cells, constellations.â

(via Doe Paoro's "Guilty" Gives Voice To Being A Woman In Today's World)
I get asked every once in a while what âDoe Paoroâ means. Doe Paoro is my mission statement to myself â itâs the combination of a few different creation myths involving women, and the intention was to give myself space and  permission to rewrite the story I have about myself as a woman, to rewrite the mythology we have about women.Â
Truthfully, it has always been a struggle for me to embrace the feminine in myself. I am still learning. For a long time, I resented my femininity; somehow internalized it as weak because thats the message I absorbed from society as a child, and children are so perceptive. I was extremely aggressive then, and I know itâs because I was somehow aware of that conflict inside of me from a young age. How to be as strong as I wanted to be and how to be a woman.
My reprogramming has been tuning in with the mystical power of being a woman, of all the epics ways we create, dream, manifest, birth, heal, emote, intuit. Finding inspiration from other female artists. Making amazing female friendships has been a part of my healing. This year I started playing with an all-female band which feels right and safe. Â Happy International Womenâs Day. Hereâs to all of us, rewriting what it means to be woman every day, opening to possibility.

GUILTY
Your boys met me at the gates
Dangled keys and hazed
with promised fates.
I wish I could unknow what it's like to have my body made a battlefield.
They paid until I owed,
felt so trapped
like I'd been bought and sold.
While they played power games, got stoned,
I blamed myself and forgot who was in control.
I've walked too deep inside a man's world,
Lost my strength
Forgotten what I came for
And I know I'm not the first,
that you've made defend her word.
When I refuse to be coerced,
somehow I'm subversive?
I'll take the blacklist, I'll do time
but I'm not guilty.
So why do I feel guilty?
As the gavel pounds,
touch my navel and I know deep down:
came all this way to see the shape your silhouette makes
when you turn from me.
I've walked too deep inside a man's world,
Lost my strength
Forgotten what I came for
And I know I'm not the first,
that you've made defend her word.
When I refuse to be coerced,
somehow I'm subversive?
I'll take the blacklist, I'll do time
but I'm not guilty.
So why do I feel guilty?
Can I forgive myself, for myself? Too heavy to carry.
Can I forgive myself, for myself? Too heavy to carry.
Heading out to play a few California shows this week with The Mynabirds.

San Francisco at Cafe du Nord on 1/25

New song out today --Â GUILTY --
If you have seen me perform in the last 6 months, youâve probably heard me talk about this song, because itâs one that is deeply personal and important to me. I composed "Guilty" in October 2016, in London â it was the final song that I wrote for my upcoming record, and that wasnât a coincidence. I waited until the last minute (we were going into production three days later) because of the resistance, fear, and overall heaviness that I faced within myself when considering putting words to an experience that had left me feeling, quite honestly, voiceless.
Of course, this was all before the #metoo activation began. Time has been both cruel and kind in showing me that I am not alone in my experience. Itâs so hard to speak up sometimes.Â
In most places where you find a dominant male culture, you can assume that a female voice has been suppressed somewhere in the mix. It's never a matter of women not being present, interested, or skilled enough to rise to the occasion of participating in certain fields. "Guilty" is about the internalized blame, self-hatred, and guilt that victims often must contend with (sometimes, for years) following a perplexing, undermining, often shameful encounter involving an abuse of power. It happens in Hollywood, and it happens in indie music. This song is my story.
