Lyrics for Small World by Ani Difranco:
| | | Artist: | Ani Difranco |
| | Album: | Not So Soft | | Track: | Small World | | | | Date Added: | 24/10/2007 | | Views: | 57 | | | | Lyrics: | she was shaking and talking
louder and louder
each sentence was sifted
to a
very fine powder
her face was wet and tight
her grip was cold and light
a
strong wind could blow you down
I heard myself say
word up sister
a strong
wind
could take me away
I said how long have
you been at large
/>
they told me you were stashed
last time I asked
she said I've been out now
/>
for all of three hours
I just resurfaced
and here you are
I must admit
/>
that it has been hard
so far
I said skeletons are fine
your closet
or mine
and we took turns recounting
the details of lost time
and when we had
both
admitted it all
we threw our heads back
and laughed until we cried
/>
we laughed because the world
is absurd and beautiful and small
there we
were
washed up on the curb
as the rush hour traffic
went out with the tide
/>
and I was aware that
with every word spoken and shared
I could see her shaking
subside
I said sister looks to me
like you're going to be fine | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
