Out Of Range - Lyrics by Difranco Ani


Lyrics
just the thoughtof our bedmakes me crumble like the plasterwhere you punched the wall beside my bedand I tryto draw the linebut it ends up running down the middle of memost of the timeboys get locked up in some prisongirls get locked up in some houseand it don't matter if it's a wardenor a loveror a spouseyou just can't talk to 'emyou just can't reasonyou just can't leaveand you just can't please 'em
I was lockedinto being my mother's daughter
I was just eating bread and waterthinkingnothing ever changesand I was shockedto see the mistakes of each generationwill just fade like a radio stationif you drive out of range
If you're not angryyou're just stupidor you don't carehow else can you reactwhen you knowsomething's so unfairthe men of the hourcan kill half the world in warmake them slaves to a super powerand let them die poor
I was lockedinto being my mother's daughter
I was just eating bread and waterthinkingnothing ever changesand I was shockedto see the mistakes of each generationwill just fade like a radio stationif you drive out of rangejust the thoughtof our bedmakes me crumble like the plasterwhere you punched the wall beside my bedand I tryto draw the linebut it ends up running down the middle of memost of the timebaby I love youthat's why I'm leavingthere's no talking to youand there's no pleasing youand I care enoughthat I'm madthat half the world don't even knowwhat they could have had
I was lockedinto being my mother's daughter
I was just eating bread and waterthinkingnothing ever changesand I was shockedto see the mistakes of each generationwill just fade like a radio stationif you drive out of range
