“And your trying to find a reason,
why you have to leave.
But, I know its cause you think you’re Adam,
you think I’m Eve.”

Sometimes I forget how much Ani DiFranco’s music moves me. And then, here I am, as I stumble onto a song I may have never heard, or truly listened to (because there is a difference between hearing and listening), and suddenly it hits me fast and hard like an unexpected car crash somewhere on the open road in the middle of the night.

I never saw it coming.

Adam and Eve, especially the line “Just don’t treat me like I am something that’s happened to you”, resonates with me and reminds me of a past relationship, and how the other of the two of us tried to define me, at that final exit sign, as we both were attempting to say our goodbyes.
