Ani Difranco - Woe Be Gone lyrics

Woe be gone The madness and the suffering of the human race The history of the world is such a losing place The alphabet took us on a wild goose chase And still Still there’s swiftly shifting sands Beneath our feet And an unexplored hemisphere Lying underneath Enter the goddesses Fresh from their long sleep We get so off track sometimes We get so off track sometimes I mean what the hell? Raise your hand if you’re at peace right now In fact just stand up and take a bow Everywhere you look just see damaged goods And still Still there’s swiftly shifting sands Beneath our feet And an unexplored hemisphere Lying underneath Enter the goddesses Fresh from their long sleep We get so off track sometimes We get so off track sometimes… Woe be gone Madness and suffering I am just like you The bottoms of my crutches look like old worn shoes Me and my addictions got a lot to lose And still Still there’s swiftly shifting sands Beneath our feet And an unexplored hemisphere Lying underneath Enter the goddesses Fresh from their long sleep We get so off track sometimes We get so off track sometimes… Woe be gone The madness and the suffering of the human race The history of the world is such a losing place The alphabet took us on a wild goose chase
