[00:00.00] ani difranco - studying stones
[00:35.64]
[00:37.64]
[00:39.64] i am out here studying stones
[00:42.96] trying to learn to be less alive
[00:46.23] using all of my will
[00:48.03] to keep very still
[00:49.69] still even on the inside
[00:52.65] i’ve cut all of the pertinent wires
[00:56.01] so my eyes can’t make that connection
[00:59.07] i am holding my breath
[01:00.84] i am feigning my death
[01:02.41] when i’m looking in your direction
[01:05.37]
[01:06.01] ’course numb is an old hat
[01:08.94] old as my oldest memories
[01:12.56] see that one’s my mother
[01:14.43] and that one’s my father
[01:16.04] and that one in the hat, that’s me
[01:18.87] it’s a skill i’d hoped to abandon
[01:22.19] when i got out on the open road
[01:25.42] but any more pent up emotion
[01:27.71] and i think i’m gonna explode
[01:30.96]
[01:59.45] there’s never been an endeavor so strange
[02:02.85] as trying to slow the blood in my veins
[02:06.55] to keep my face blank
[02:07.82] as a stone that just sank
[02:09.51] until not a ripple remains
[02:12.83] i am high above the tree line
[02:16.52] sitting cross legged on the ground
[02:20.08] when all of the forbidden fruit has fallen and rotted
[02:23.23] that’s when i’m gonna come down
[02:26.33]
[02:26.79] ’course numb is an old hat
[02:29.74] old as my oldest memories
[02:33.32] see that one’s my mother
[02:35.25] and that one’s my father
[02:36.86] and that one in the hat, that’s me
[02:39.73] it’s a skill i’d hoped to abandon
[02:43.02] when i got out on the open road
[02:46.31] but any more pent up emotion
[02:48.78] and i think i’m gonna explode
