Ani Difranco - Angry Anymore Lyrics
Growing up it was just me and my momAgainst the worldAnd all my sympathies were with herWhen I was a little girlBut now Ive seen both my parentsPlay out the hands they were dealtAnd as each year goes byI know more about how my father must have feltI just want you to understandThat I know what all the fighting was forAnd I just want you to understandThat Im not angry anymoreIm not angry anymoreShe taught me how to wage a cold warWith quiet charmBut I just want to walkThrough my life unarmedTo accept and just get byLike my father learned to doBut without all the acceptance and getting byThat got my father throughNight falls like people into loveWe generate our own lightTo compensateFor the lack of light from aboveEvery time we fightA cold wind blows our wayBut we learn like the treesHow to bendHow to sway and sayI, I think I understandWhat all this fighting is forAnd baby, I just want you to understandThat Im not angry anymoreNo, Im not angry anymore
