Welcome To - Ani DiFranco

Welcome to:

No amount of stoned makes you feel ok

Welcome to:

This year’s alone — brought to you by christmas day

Welcome to:

The darkness into which prayin people pray

It’s quiet here except for this song

Now that everybody’s gone

But hey

Least you don’t have to play along today

Welcome to:

Something like elation when you first open your eyes

Just 'cause it means

That you musta finally got to sleep last night

Welcome to:

The precipice between groundlessness and flight

It’s quiet here except for this song

Now that everybody’s gone

But hey

Least you don’t have to play along today

Besides which

Welcome to:

Taking the good stuff down off of the shelf

And welcome to:

The art of conversation with yourself

Welcome to:

Humming an unbroken tune

All day long

Yes it’s quiet here

But hey

Least you don’t have to play along today
