Ani Difranco - Letting The Telephone Ring Lyrics
I am letting the telephone ringCause I dont want to know whyI dont want to hear you explainI dont want to hear you cryI have written so much about youSo much I thought I knewWords like water used to flowNow what could I possibly have to say?She is someone I dont even knowAnd all the things that youve given to meI see now were simply reparationsThey were gifts of your guiltThey were my preparationI know I should be matureKeep my feet on the floorBut for some reason,I just dont want them anymoreI know this shouldnt be importantCompared to you and iBut I can still hear my questionsAnd I can still hear youI can still hear youLieNow vicariously I have her in meI want to peel off my skinLet the water wash inYou always said that I was hidingThat I was hiding from youBut you are capable of things I could not doYou are capable of things I could not doI remember how you pretendedHow you pretended to touch meI remember how I couldnt bring myself to believeI remember wondering,What was wrongWhat was wrongHow could I be so naiveHow could I be so naive?
