Lyrics - Adam And Eve by Difranco Ani

Tonight you stooped to my level,
I am your mangy little whore,now you're trying to find your underwear,then your socks, and then the door.
And your trying to find a reasonwhy you have to leave.
But
I know its cause you think you're
Adamyou think
I'm
Eve.
You rhapsodize about beautymy eyes glazeeverything
I love is ugly
I mean really, you would be amazed.
Just do me a favor,it's the least that you can do.
Just don't treat me like
I amsomething that's happened to you.
Cause
I am,
I am truly sorry about all this.
You put a tiny pin prickin my big red balloon,and as
I slowly start to exhale,that's when you leave the room.
And
I did not design this game.
I did not name the stakes,
I just happen to like applesand am not afraid of snakes.
But
I am,
I am truly sorry about this.
And
I envy you,your ignorance.
I hear that its bliss.
So
I let go the ratioof things said to hings heard,as
I leave you to your garden,and the beauty you preferred.
And
I wonder what of this will have meaningfor you when you've left it all behind.
I think
I'll even wonder if you meant it at the time.
