Alanis

Alanis, how did you ever keep your sanity?

Alanis, lived out your pain through sweet profanity

Your heart, it was bleeding

When you told all your secrets

And they showed no sympathy

Alanis, how did you ever keep your sanity?

Scream on the stage and let out the rage

Till the lights go dark

Fame is hollow, jagged pill's hard to swallow

While they pick you apart

Oh, Alanis

Alanis, your anger was a medicine I didn't know I would need

I'm finding there's not much difference between you and me

You understand all the thoughts in my head

That make my words extreme

Alanis, you're the medicine I didn't know I would need

Scream on the stage and let out the rage

Till the lights go dark

Fame is hollow, jagged pill's hard to swallow

While they pick you apart

One hand in my pocket

Yeah, the truth is shocking

When there's nothing to lose

I know how to be brave

Keep the demons away

All because of you

Oh, Alanis

Alanis, how did you ever keep your sanity?

Scream on the stage and let out your rage

Till the lights go dark

Fame is hollow, jagged pill's hard to swallow

While they pick you apart

One hand in my pocket

Yeah, the truth is shocking

When there's nothing to lose

I know how to be brave

Keep the demons away

All because of you

Oh, Alanis

Oh, Alanis
