Ani Difranco - Welcome To Lyrics

welcome to
no amount of stoned makes you feel okay
and welcome to
this year's alone - brought to you by christmas day
and welcome to
the darkness into which praying people pray

yeah it's quiet here except for this song
now that everybody's gone
but hey
at least you don't have to play along today

and welcome to
something like elation when you first open your eyes
just cuz it means that you must finally got to sleep last night
and welcome to
the precipice between groundlessness and flight

yeah it's quiet here except for this song
now that everybody's gone
but hey
at least you don't have to play along today

besides which, welcome to
taking the good stuff down off of the shelf
and welcome to
the art of conversation with yourself
welcome to
humming half of a broken tune all day long
and it's quiet here
but hey
least you don't have to play along today
no you don't have to play along
