Virtue Lyrics - Up Up Up Up Up Up - Ani Difranco

Virtue is relative at best 

There's nothing worse than a sunset 

When you're driving due west 

And I'm afraid that my love 

Is gonna come up short there is no there there 

I guess I'm scared 

'Cuz I want to have good news to report 

Every time I come up for air 

Now I'm cruising through a chroma key blue sky 

And I know that in an hour or three 

The sun is gonna be in my eyes 

And I know that sometimes all I can see 

Is how I feel like the whole world is on the other side 

Of a dirty windshield 

And I'm tryin' to see through the glare 

Yes, I'm struggling just to see what's there 

The one person who really knows me best 

Says I'm like a cat 

Yeah, the kind of cat that you just can't pick up 

And throw into your lap 

No, the kind that doesn't mind being held 

Only when it's her idea 

Yeah, the kind that feels what she decides to feel 

When she is good and ready to feel it 

And now I am prowling through the backyard 

And I am hiding under the car 

I have gotten out of everything 

I've gotten into so far 

I eat when I am hungry 

And I travel alone 

And just outside the glow of the house 

Is where I feel most at home 

But in the window you sometimes appear 

And your music is faint in my ears
