Done Wrong - Ani Difranco
The wind is ruthless
The trees shake angry fingers at the sky
The people hunch their shoulders
Hold their collars over their earsand run by
Its a cold rain
Its a hard rain
Like the kind that you find in songs
I guess that makes methe jerk with the heartache
Here to sing youabout how Ive been done wrong
And I am sitting watching
Out the window of the coffee shop
And I am waiting waiting
Waiting for it to let up
I am rocking like a cradle
Warming my hands with the cup in between
I am leaning over the table
Holding my face over the steam
And before it gets so cold
That the rain turns to snow
Theres just a couple things
Id like to know
Like how could you do nothing
And say Im doing my best
How could you take almost everything
And then come back for the rest
How could you beg me to stay
Reach out your hands and plead
And then pack up your eyes and run away
As soon as I agreed
It just all slips
Away so slowly
You dont even notice till youve lost a lot
Ive been like one of those zombies
In vegas
Pouring quarters into a slot
And now Im tired
And I am broke
And I feel stupid and I feel used
And Im at the end of my little rope
And I am swinging back and forth
About you
Before it gets so cold
That the rain turns to snow
Theres just a couple things
Id like to know
Like how could you do nothing
And say Im doing my best
How could you take almost everything
And then come back for the rest
How could you beg me to stay
Reach out your hands and plead
And then pack up your eyes and run away
As soon as I agreed
