[00:00.00]You Let Me Be - Melissa Ferrick/Ani Difranco
[00:13.31]Today I met
[00:15.50]A part of myself
[00:19.65]That's been hiding out in the back
[00:25.59]This part of me
[00:27.65]That feeds on lonely
[00:31.75]The part of me that keeps people back
[00:37.83]I greeted her
[00:40.05]With open arms
[00:43.80]I laid myself
[00:46.02]Right down inside
[00:49.62]And I found a new kind of quiet calm
[00:56.25]I've got me a new way to feel alive
[01:01.15]'Cuz youuu you see right through me
[01:07.42]Yea youuu let me be
[01:27.10]I do not wish
[01:29.35]My lonely gone
[01:33.29]I like to savor the space
[01:39.48]I want to honor all the parts of me
[01:45.59]That ask me
[01:47.56]To take time away
[01:51.71]A wakefulness immediate life
[01:57.78]Away from the surface
[01:59.61]Yea break through the ice
[02:04.25]In the heat of the darkness I have found
[02:10.15]I got me a new kind
[02:13.52]Common ground
[02:14.99]'Cuz youuu you see right through me
[02:21.15]Yea youuu let me be

[02:31.29]What will I do with my time
[02:33.66]Well I'm able to walk able to
[02:36.33]Sing able to give able to cry
[02:40.94]I want to make sure when I look back I smile
