作词 : DiFranco | |
The slant, a building settling around me | |
My figure female framed crookedly | |
In the threshold of the room | |
Door scraping floorboards with every opening | |
Carving a rough history of bedroom scenes | |
The plot hard to follow | |
The text obscured in the fields of sheets | |
Slowly gathering the stains of seasons spent lying there | |
Red and brown like leaves fallen | |
The colors of an eternal cycle | |
Fading with the wash cycle | |
And the rinse cycle | |
Again an unfamiliar smell | |
Like my name misspelled or misspoken | |
A cycle broken | |
The sound of them strong | |
Stalking, talking about their prey | |
Like the way hammer meets nail | |
Pounding, they say | |
Pounding out the rhythms of attraction | |
Like a woman was a drum like a body was a weapon | |
Like there was something more they wanted than the journey | |
Like it was owed to them | |
Steel toed they walk | |
And I'm wondering why this fear of men | |
Maybe it's because | |
I'm hungry | |
And like a baby | |
I'm dependent on them | |
To feed me | |
I am a work in progress | |
Dressed in the fabric of a world unfolding | |
Offering me intricate patterns of questions | |
Rhythms that never come clean |
