Lyrics for Here for Now by Ani DiFranco
Songwriters: Difranco, Ani
Yes, your heart jumps in all that's happening
I bet you're wondering if the goddesses are all crazy
My fear of being here
Your fear of being here
Because you want to be liked
And thinking that one thing is what saves you from
And you keep imagining that pretty soon
You will just disappear
I bet you're looking for the little red 'x'
Or some sign that the coast is clear
Situated slightly outside society
Here for now, you're here for now, you're here for now
Or just keeping it interesting
I will just disappear
I bet you're teetering on the edge of sobriety
And the moment when your heart jumps in all that's happening
And thinking that one thing is what saves me from
Like the fear that you're standing here
But does your instrument need to be mic'd
Here for now, I'm here for now, I'm here for now
Yes, I know I need my instrument
Next to the red arrow and the sign says 'you are here'
And I was right behind the door when you knocked
Because I want to be liked
I keep imagining that pretty soon
At odds with it's odd offerings
Just to alleviate a few things
I bet you're hoping that your heart will send up the white flag this time
Like you know you need your instrument
But does my instrument need to me mic'd
It's like the first time you felt that shock
Thinking maybe I'm just standing here
