[00:00.00]	作词 : DiFranco
[00:00.00]	he light blue flickering rhythm of the neighbor's big console T.V.
[00:04.38]	Is basking on the ceiling of another insomniac spree
[00:08.16]	And outside sleep's open window
[00:10.27]	Between the drops of rain
[00:12.21]	History is writing a recipe book
[00:14.08]	For every earthly pain
[00:16.78]	Oh to clean up the clutter of echoes
[00:18.85]	Coming in and out of focus
[00:20.25]	Words spoken
[00:21.17]	Like locusts
[00:21.97]	Sing and sing
[00:22.91]	In my head
[00:24.67]	And thing is
[00:26.11]	They often seem
[00:27.23]	In my memory's long dream
[00:29.10]	To be superfluous to the true story of what was
[00:34.81]	Cuz
[00:35.58]	Real is real regardless
[00:37.23]	Of what you try to say
[00:38.21]	Or say away
[00:39.62]	Real is real relentless
[00:41.09]	While words distract and dismay
[00:43.71]	Words that change their tune
[00:45.08]	Though the story remains the same
[00:47.28]	Words that fill me quickly
[00:48.56]	And then are slow to drain
[00:50.65]	Dialogues that dither down reminiscent
[00:52.72]	Of the way it likes to rain
[00:54.96]	Every screen
[00:55.76]	A smoke screen
[00:57.25]	Oh to dream
[00:58.70]	Just for a moment
[00:59.80]	The picture
[01:01.32]	Outside the frame
[01:04.13]	Then in a flash
[01:05.05]	The light blue horizon
[01:06.29]	Spanning a sudden black
[01:07.84]	Is sucked into the vanishing point
[01:09.92]	And quiet rushes back
[01:11.86]	To search for the downbeat
[01:13.18]	In a tabla symphony
[01:14.88]	To search in the darkness
[01:16.11]	For someone who looks like me
[01:18.93]	(Though I'm not really who I said I was or who I thought I'd be)
[01:25.05]	Just a collection of recollections
[01:26.93]	Conversations consisting
[01:28.45]	Of the kind of marks we make
[01:30.61]	When we're trying to get a pen to work again
[01:33.96]	A lifetime of them!
[01:38.10]	I say to me
[01:39.46]	Now here listening
[01:41.40]	I say to the locusts
[01:42.62]	That sing and sing to me sitting
[01:44.99]	Now here on the front porch swing of my eyes:
[01:48.09]	I hereby amend
[01:49.75]	Whatever I've ever said
[01:52.45]	With this sigh
