Manhole

Ani DiFranco

I'm holding here a book Notable, but not the greatest Stolen for me by the latest in a long line of thieves And I'm just about to drop it down that man hole of memories But I realized it doesn't bother me like loves mementos usually do And I look up to see who's different here, the latest me or the latest you Course you're the kind of guy who doesn't lie he just doctors everything Who chooses some unassuming finger and quietly moves his wedding ring Who rewrites his autobiography for any pretty girl who will sing But you can't fool the queen baby cause I married the king It was I who betrayed his majesty though opposite reality Like a puddle with no reflection of the sky, of the trees But after my dreaded beheadding and I tied that sucker back on with a string And I guess I'm pretty different now, considering. I kissed you on the street that night on the far side of for ? I didn't like taste in my mouth or yours And ignoring the persona you wore for my benefit For once I had balls, to call it, just call it The lesson must be lived, in order to be learned And the clarity to see and stop this now That is what I earned. It was I who betrayed his majesty though opposite reality ? Like a puddle with no reflection of the sky, of the trees But after my dreaded beheading and I tied that sucker back on with a string And I guess I'm pretty different now, considering I'm holding here a book, notable and not the greatest. Stolen for me by the latest in a long line of thieves And I'm just about to drop it down the man hole of memories When I realize it doesn't bother me, a heartache not so dire And I look up to see integrity and finally won over desire --- Manhole - Ani DiFranco
