Circle Of Light Lyrics by Ani DiFranco

Circle Of Light Lyrics

    standing just outside
    the circle of light
    avoiding the pool cues
    watching the game
    waiting for you
    hanging in the doorway
    like smoke
    like mistletoe
    this is where I'll be
    whenever you come or go

    I'm gonna roll you over
    gonna peel you back
    expose your tender center
    watch the juices flow from the crack
    gonna peel you out
    of your protective shell
    or I might have to break right in there
    and raise some hell

    I don't have no grand plan
    for you and me
    just nothing is impossible
    nothing is unlikely
    I'm just riding the tide
    nothing more
    and it's bound to take me out some
    before it brings me back to shore

    when you look in the mirror
    do you see visions of your past
    I ain't got time for halfway
    I ain't got time for halfassed
    when I look in the mirror
    I see my days to come
    and my face is just a trace
    of where I'm coming from

    just outside the circle of light
    is where you've been living
    your whole life
    you've got to jump into the center
    and launch your attack
    and then you've got to crawl back
    in the corners
    where it's really black
