I don't think you are not listening with fine tuned ears. I think she is telling Americans to wake up and to take heart this magnificent tragedy that happened right in our home. It isn't based on the conspiracies you've hastily mentioned. It's based on the the world and humans in it coming together. Solidarity of ALL HUMAN BEINGS, not just selfish, boastful patriotism or the writing off of humanity in turn for political corruption. If you think this government is protecting you or any joe in this country, you need a serious wake up call. Who cares about the things you're whining about? When are we all going to worry about what matters? Protecting ourselves, our brothers and our sisters of the earth that we all live on? And no, "we" DIDN'T deserve it. I think it should go without saying none of us do. |

| Ani DiFranco – Serpentine Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| In echoing interest in the song's intro, I feel that it sets the mood perfectly. It's brooding, contemplative, quiet, thoughtful, serious. Every theme the song continues in with lyric. | |

This is a story about two people who don't speak the same language when it comes to love. The lover is fixated on representational idealization of love. What they think love means. She is weary in heart because she simply loves this person the way she loves them. Which is to say, she loves this person directly, while the lover loves her conceptually. I suppose this could happen in the case of the lover with complete sincerity, feeling as if they truly do love her...but it's blindfolded and they don't appreciate (hard as they may try) or receive her love. Have you ever been in a relationship where your love was never enough, where no matter how deeply you loved someone, your love was not the right kind? I think this is what she feels. Maybe she desires to understand love as a mold, as the lover does. Maybe if she weren't preoccupied with other difficult realities, she would be floating in the same atmosphere. But she ebbs, the lover flows and while they are a part of the same massive body, they are painstakingly in entirely opposite directions. |
