Anticipate - Ani DiFranco

You are subtle as a window pane

Standing in my view

But I will wait for it to rain

So that I can see you

You call me up at night

When theres no light passing through

And you think that I dont understand

But I do We dont say everything that we could

So that we can say later

Oh, you misunderstood

I hold my cards up Close to my chest

I say what I have to And I hold back the rest

cause someone you dont know

Is someone you dont know

Get a firm grip, girl

Before you let go For every hand extended

Another lies in wait

Keep your eye on that one

Anticipate

Dress down get out there

Pick a fight with the police

We will get it all on film

For the new release

Seems like everyones an actor

Or theyre an actors best friend

I wonder what was wrong to begin with

That they should all have to pretend

We lost sight of everything

When we have to keep checking our backs

I think we should all just smile

Come clean

And relax

If theres anything Ive learned

All these years on my own

Its how to find my own way there

And how to find my own way back home
