Hour follows hour

[vivianmari]

"and dont fool yourself into thinking things are simple,

nobody's lying still the storys dont line up,

why do you try to hold on to what youll never get a hold on?

you wouldnt try to put the ocean in a papercup"

[chelseaarocks]

i quoted this song for my national honor society essay

[vivianmari]

my favorite part is where she sings

"and ive got nothing to prove this time just something to show ya,

guess i just wanted you to see

that it was all worth it to me.." and then she has this intake of breath where i think shes about to sing another chorus, but as if she's deciding against it at the last moment- ive no idea why that little detail kinda sticks with me, i find it so emotional - love that she leaves that refrain open and bare like that.

This work pulled me through the darkest time in my life so far, I appreciate the post.

[ghettiegirl]

i've been listening to ani difranco for fifteen years and love her so much i think i would die if something happened to her. is she still into lesbians? give me a call if so. j/k *S*

"... hour follows hour like water in a river, and from one to the next we don't know what each hour will deliver ..." this is maybe the most beautiful of all her songs - me too, it makes me cry, still, more than ten years after I used to listen to it - knowing even more how true the lyrics are.

This song makes me cry. I don't know why. She's incredible.

"and maybe the most we can do is just to see each other through"
