Animal - Ani Difranco (安妮·迪弗兰科)[00:00:00]

More and more there is this animal[00:00:38]

Looking out through my eyes[00:00:43]

At all the traffic on the road to nowhere[00:00:48]

At all the shiny stuff around to buy[00:00:52]

At all the wires in the air[00:00:58]

At all the people shopping[00:01:02]

For the same blank stare[00:01:05]

At america the drastic[00:01:08]

That isolated geographic[00:01:10]

That＇s become infested with millionaires[00:01:12]

When you grow up surrounded[00:01:14]

By willful ignorance[00:01:21]

You have to believe[00:01:25]

Mercy has its own country[00:01:26]

And that it＇s round and borderless[00:01:30]

And then you have to grow wings[00:01:34]

And rise above it all[00:01:38]

Like there[00:01:46]

Where that hawk is circling[00:01:48]

Above that strip mall[00:01:54]

More and more there is this animal[00:02:19]

Looking out through my eyes[00:02:24]

Seeing that animals only take from this world[00:02:28]

What they need to survive[00:02:33]

But she is prowling through all the religions of men[00:02:35]

Seeing that time and time and time again[00:02:43]

Their gods have made them[00:02:48]

Special and above[00:02:50]

Nature＇s law[00:02:53]

And the respect thereof[00:02:56]

And I think when you grow up surrounded[00:02:58]

By willful ignorance[00:03:03]

You have to believe that mercy has its own country[00:03:07]

And that it＇s round and borderless[00:03:13]

And then you just grow wings[00:03:17]

And rise above it all[00:03:21]

Like there where that hawk is circling[00:03:29]

Above that strip mall[00:03:37]

Ask any eco-system[00:04:02]

Harm here is harm there[00:04:04]

And there and there[00:04:10]

And aggression begets aggression[00:04:13]

It＇s a very simple lesson[00:04:15]

That long preceded any king of heaven[00:04:17]

And there＇s this brutal imperial power[00:04:23]

That my passport says I represent[00:04:27]

But it will never represent where my heart lives[00:04:31]

Only vaguely where it went[00:04:37]

Cuz I know when you grow up surrounded[00:04:42]

By willful ignorance[00:04:47]

You learn that mercy has its own country[00:04:51]

And that it＇s round and borderless[00:04:57]

And then you just grow wings[00:05:00]

And rise above it all[00:05:06]

Like there[00:05:13]

Where that hawk is circling[00:05:16]

Above that strip mall[00:05:21]
