second time around [live] - indigo girls lyrics

the second time around
you know it really got me down
sister, don’t you judge it
just keep it to yourself now
and if you ain’t got nothing good to say
don’t say nothing at all
i go bitten by the bitter bug
and now i just can’t get enough
of ill will and my own conceit
i’m weary of the world it seems
i’m weary of the world
weary of the world it seems
it’s sort of always gone my way
i’m just a little bit off these days
like i’ve had hard knocks all my life
like i’m a bible belt wife
like i didn’t see it coming
like i didn’t walk it willingly
see, i never want to sing again
la, la, la, like a b-tterfly
without my wits about me
without my heart in line
third time’s a charm
and this isn’t mine
you said you heard loretta sing
and you felt the loneliness seeping in
the cowboys made you uneasy
you’re a god-fearing lesbian
so you learn not to yearn
and you take it on the chin again
here’s what i find about compromise
don’t do it if it hurts inside
’cause either way you’re screwed
eventually you’ll find
you may as well feel good
you may as well have some pride
so come august we’ll go to cherokee
and hear loretta do her thing
pack it into the indian casino
make the hillbilly scene
gonna kick up our heels
gonna join in
are you my ally or my enemy?
do you have self-loathing or empathy?
can you keep me in your prayers, sister?
can you keep me in there somewhere?
and sister, if you ain’t got nothing good to say
don’t say nothing at all
