Ani Difranco - Binary Lyrics




Where are my sisters?
Where are my brothers?
Where is my family
Who takes care of each other?

In the blue glow of gizmos
Lurk despots in diapers
And cyborgs with bullhorns
And crackpots and snipers
Like robots so cold
With such ease they dismiss you
Sooner f*ck you then kiss you
Sooner kick you and diss you

They got networks like insects
With webs of deception
They'll trap you, cocoon you
Like a department of correction
They come in all colors
All sexes and creeds
They got all kind of issues
They got our kind of needs

Little laboratory monkeys
Raised with no hugging
Just a wire cage mom
And lab coats muggin'
I feel your anger
I feel your pain
I feel the aching hole in your soul that can't be named

Yes consciousness is binary
Consciousness is spinning
Consciousness is a circuit
When consciousness is winning
Consciousness is binary
Consciousness is spinning
Consciousness is a circuit
When consciousness is winning

You gotta complete the circuit
Alone there's just no knowing
Yeah energy is destructive unless it is flowing
In the connection lies the spark
In the connection lies the art
You gotta be up in someone's countenance
Conversing with their heart

You gotta complete the circuit
Not just with human beings
With the sky above you
With the earth beneath your feet
When you complete the circuit
With everything that lives
Borders get blurry
And the rest is adjectives

(Where are my sisters?
Where are my brothers?
Where is my family
Who takes care of each other?)

Consciousness is binary
Consciousness is spinning

Where are my sisters?
Where are my brothers?
Where is my family
Who takes care of each other?
