lirik lagu ani difranco - shroud
i had to leave the house of fashion
and go forth naked from its doors
’cause women should be allies
and not compet-tors
i had to leave the house of god
because the cross replaced the wheel
and the goddesses were all out in the garden
with the plants that nurture and heal
i had to leave the house of privilege
spend christmas homeless and feeling bad
to learn privilege is a headache
that you don’t know that you don’t have
i had to leave the house of television
to start noticing the clouds
it’s amazing the stuff you see when
you finally shed that shroud
i had leave the house of conformity
in order to make art
i had to be more and less true
to learn to tell the two apart
i had to leave the house of fear
just about as soon as i could crawl
ignore my face on a wanted poster
stuck to the post office wall
i had leave the house of self-importance
to doodle my first tattoo
to realize a tattoo is no more permanent
than i am, and who
ever said that life is suffering
i think they had their finger on the pulse of joy
ain’t the power of transcendence
the greatest one we can employ
