Brief Bus Stop Lyrics - Not So Soft - Ani Difranco

She sat there like a photograph 

Of someone much further away 

We shared a brief bus stop 

On one of those in-between days 

 

She gave me her smile 

And I looked underneath 

At the lipstick on her teeth 

 

She asked me for a light 

And if I thought her hair looked okay 

We grew out of the small talk 

Into stuff strangers just don't say 

 

We discovered we are both 

Pleasantly furious half of the time 

When we're not just toeing the line 

 

We sat underneath the shelter 

As the rain came down outside 

The bench was cold 

Against the underside of our thighs 

I said I think we need new responses 

Each question's a revolving door 

And she said, yeah, 

My life may not be something special 

But it's never been lived before 

 

We decided our urgency will wane 

When we grow old 

And there will be a new generation of anger 

New stories to be told 

 

But I said, I don't know if I can wait 

For that peace to be mine 

And she said, well, you know, 

We've been waiting for this bus 

For an awfully long time
