Minerva Lyrics - Knuckledown - Ani Difranco

you wandered in 

to the forest 

followin 

that shiny red ball 

and by the time 

you looked up 

you were lost 

but that's not all 

you confused your journey 

with my journey 

you tried to nailed me 

like minerva to your brow 

but my job here 

is not to deliver you 

but to hold a mirror 

till you see how 

oh say can you see me 

oh say can you see me 

oh say can you see me over here? 

you want me 

to tell you a story 

but i am weary 

of entertaining 

i'll have more 

to say when i'm happy 

course then i'll have less 

to sing 

there's no me 

left for me 

no anecdotal time of day 

no wild adventures 

except in darkness 

so dark i'd rather not say
