Versuri Ani DiFranco - Swandive
cradling the softest, warmest part of you in my hand
feels like a little baby bird fallen from the nest
i think that your body is something i understand
i think that i-m happy, i think that i-m blessed
i-ve got a lack of inhibition
i-ve got a loss of perspective
i-ve had a little bit to drink
and it-s making me think
that i can jump ship and swim
that the ocean will hold me
that there-s got to be more
than this boat i-m in
-cuz they can call me crazy if i fail
all the chance that i need
is one-in-a-million
and they can call me brilliant
if i succeed
gravity is nothing to me, moving at the speed of sound
i-m just going to get my feet wet
until i drown
and i teeter between tired
and really, really tired
im wiped and im wired but i guess its just as well
because i built my own empire
out of car tires and chicken wire
and i-m queen of my own compost heap
and i-m getting used to the smell
and i-ve got a lack of information
but i got a little revelation
and i-m climbing up on the railing
trying not to look down
i-m going to do my best swan dive
in the shark-infested waters
i-m gonna pull out my tampon
and start splashing around
-cuz i don-t care if they eat me alive
i-ve got better thing to do than survive
i-ve got a memory of your warm skin in my hand
and i-ve got a vision of blue sky and dry land
i-m cradling the hardest, heaviest part of me in my hand
the ship is pitching and heaving, my limbs are bobbing and weaving
and i think this is what i understand
i just need a little vaccination for my far-away vacation
i-m going to go ahead boldly because a little bird told me
that jumping is easy, that falling is fun
up until you hit the sidewalk, shivering, stunned
and they can call me crazy if i fail
all the chance that i need
is one-in-a-million
and they can call me brilliant
if i succeed
gravity is nothing to me
moving at the speed of sound
i-m just gonna get my feet wet
until ï drown...
