Letra y Significado de MANHOLE, Ani Difranco

I'm holding here a book
notable, but not the greatest
stolen for me by the latest in a long line of thieves
and i'm just about to drop it down that man hole of memories
but i realized it doesn't bother me like loves mementos usually do
and i look up to see who’s different here, the latest me or the latest you
course you're the kind of guy who doesn't lie he just doctors everything
who chooses some unassuming finger and quietly moves his wedding ring
who rewrites his autobiography for any pretty girl who will sing
but you can't fool the queen baby cause i married the king
it was i who betrayed his majesty though opposite reality
like a pond with no reflection of the sky, of the trees
but after my dreaded big head and i tied that sucker back on with a string
and i guess i'm pretty different now, considering.
i kissed you on the street that night on the far side of for ??
but i knew you didn't like taste in my mouth or yours
and i know i am persona? you both? for my benefit
but once i had the balls to just call, and just call
the lesson must be lived in order to be learned
clarity is the sea that stops the sound, that is what i learned.
it was i who betrayed his majesty though opposite reality
like a pond with no reflection of the sky, of the trees
but after my dreaded big head and i tied that sucker back on with a string
and i guess i'm pretty different now, considering
i'm holding here a book, notable and not the greatest.
stolen for me by the latest in a long line of thieves
and i'm just about to drop it down the man hole of memories
when i realize it doesn't bother me and heartache not so dire
when i look up to see integrity and finally one overt desire
