Ani DiFranco - Phase

I'll be your biggest fan
I will be your fool
I'll be your exception
To whatever the rule
And I ain't the type to bitch
I ain't the type to cry
I'll sit at your red light and wait
For your shit to go by
And this vague little smile
Is my all-purpose expression
The meaning of which
I will leave to your discretion

My distraction's my defense
Against a lack of inspiration
Against a slow leak deflation
The further the horizon
The more it holds my gaze
And the foreground's out of focus
But you know I kinda hope it's
Just a phase

I've been through and through this
I know just how it goes
You'll have no idea
You'll have no need to know
Cause I will make your body
Grow wings and take flight
I will erase sound
I will erase light
And this vague little smile
Is my all-purpose expression
The meaning of which
I'll leave to your discretion

My distraction's my defense
Against a lack of inspiration
Against a slow leak deflation
The further the horizon
The more it holds my gaze
And the foreground's out of focus
But you know I kinda hope it's
Just a phase
