מילים לשיר Everest – Ani Difranco

from the depth of the pacific
and still the world is smoother
to the height of everest
so i take a few steps back
than a shiny balland put on a wider lens
and it changes your skin,
your sex, and what your wearing
distance shows your to be a lot like mine
like a sphere is a sphere
and all of us here
have been here all the time
yeah, we've been here all the time
you brought me to church
cinder blocks, flourescent light
you brought me to church
at seven o'clock on a sunday night
and the band was rockin'
and the floors were scrubbed clean
and everybody had a tambourine so i took a deep breath and became
the white girl with the hair
and you sat right beside me
while everybody stared
and through the open window
i think the singing went outside
all the stars not to hide
and floated up to tell
the sky was much clearer
'cuz by the time church let out
and the moon was so beautiful
that the ocean held up a mirror as we walked home home we spoke slowly
we spoke slow
than usual to choose
and we spoke slowly
like it was taking more time
with your squeaky sandal shoes
the words to go like time is not a thing
thats ours to lose
from the height of the pacific
to the depths of the everest.
