Liz Phair - Ant in Alaska lyrics

Call me when you think the coast is clear I've been hiding out almost a year Is there something wrong? What's taking you so long? Yeah, I know it's not easy You said if I waited, it'd pay off But my eyes are growing wild And my body's growing soft Is there something wrong? What's taking you so long? And yeah, I know it's not easy. You said I should let go of your hand But I don't even know if I can You're the only one You are the very sun to me And you know it's not easy Well I look at the stars And I know you're under them I look at the books And things people are reading I know that you've written them, too You've got so many little things to do But then I look at my life And I know you've forgotten The promise you made to me I think that's rotten I'm hopelessly lost And there's hardly a sound anymore Coming through that can show me around As I'm endlessly, endlessly searching the crowd Looking for something from you Just one f**ing measly clue Any sh**ty little tip-off would do But I'm just an ant in Alaska to you But then I look at the stars And I know you're under them I look at the books And things people are reading I know that you've written them, too You've got so many little things to do But then I look at my life And I know you've forgotten The promise you made to me I think that's rotten I'm hopelessly lost And there's hardly a sound anymore Coming through that can show me around As I'm endlessly, endlessly searching the crowd Looking for something from you Just one f**ing measly clue Any sh**ty little tip-off would do But I'm just an ant in Alaska to you I'm just an ant in Alaska An ant in Alaska An ant in Alaska to you
