Ani Difranco - Bodily Lyrics






You broke me bodily
The heart ain't the half of it
And I'll never learn to laugh at it
In my good natured way
In fact I'm laughing less in general
But I learned a lot at my own funeral
And I knew you'd be the death of me
So I guess that's the price I pay

I'm trying to make new memories
In cities where we fell in love
My head just barely above
The darkest water I've ever known
You had me in that cage
You had me jumpin through those hoops for you
Still, I think I'd stoop for you
Stoop for your eyes alone

From that bomb shell moon in yet another lovely dress
To the deep mahogany sheen of a roach
I am trying to take an appreciative approach
To life in your wake
I focus on the quiet now
And occasionally I'll fall asleep somehow
And emptiness has its solace
In that there's nothing left to take

    Bodily

    Ani DiFranco

    You broke me bodily
    The heart ain't the half of it
    And I'll never learn to laugh at it
    In my good natured way
    In fact I'm laughing less in general
    But I learned a lot at my own funeral
    And I knew you'd be the death of me
    So I guess that's the price I pay

    I'm trying to make new memories
    In cities where we fell in love
    My head just barely above
    The darkest water I've ever known
    You had me in that cage
    You had me jumpin through those hoops for you
    Still, I think I'd stoop for you
    Stoop for your eyes alone

    From that bomb shell moon in yet another lovely dress
    To the deep mahogany sheen of a roach
    I am trying to take an appreciative approach
    To life in your wake
    I focus on the quiet now
    And occasionally I'll fall asleep somehow
    And emptiness has its solace
    In that there's nothing left to take

    I saw her play this live, when it was new, when she was going through her divorce and was doing concerts in a chair because of a knee injury. I cried for her as she sang so raw and broken and real that night... it is one of my most haunting / beautiful memories.

    L.... N....

    do you happen to remember when that tour was? I also saw her when she was chair bound but can't remember what year it was. I'm thinking part of 2002/2003, but solo.

  5. l.... m....

    pada malam itu, naik lah dua doa permohonan gaib ;
    sedang engkau terisak meminta aku agar hilang dari hatimu,
    dan aku hanya meminta kamu padaNYA dengan sisa cahaya yang redup disana.
    Lalu tuhan pun menertawakan..
