Woe Be Gone Lyrics - Allergic To Water - Ani Difranco

Woe be gone 

The madness and the suffering of the human race 

The history of the world is such a losing place 

The alphabet took us on a wild goose chase 

And still 

Still there's swiftly shifting sands 

Beneath our feet 

And an unexplored hemisphere 

Lying underneath 

Enter the goddesses 

Fresh from their long sleep 

We get so off track sometimes 

We get so off track sometimes 

I mean what the hell? 

Raise your hand if you're at peace right now 

In fact just stand up and take a bow 

Everywhere you look just see damaged goods 

And still 

Still there's swiftly shifting sands 

Beneath our feet 

And an unexplored hemisphere 

Lying underneath 

Enter the goddesses 

Fresh from their long sleep 

We get so off track sometimes 

We get so off track sometimes... 

Woe be gone 

Madness and suffering I am just like you 

The bottoms of my crutches look like old worn shoes 

Me and my addictions got a lot to lose 

And still 

Still there's swiftly shifting sands 

Beneath our feet 

And an unexplored hemisphere 

Lying underneath 

Enter the goddesses 

Fresh from their long sleep 

We get so off track sometimes 

We get so off track sometimes... 

Woe be gone 

The madness and the suffering of the human race 

The history of the world is such a losing place 

The alphabet took us on a wild goose chase
