ALANIS MORISSETTE LYRICS
"Thank U"
how bout getting off these antibiotics
how bout stopping eating when I'm full up
how bout them transparent dangling carrots
how bout that ever elusive kudo
thank you india
thank you terror
thank you disillusionment
thank you frailty
thank you consequence
thank you thank you silence
how bout me not blaming you for everything
how bout me enjoying the moment for once
how bout how good it feels to finally forgive you
how bout grieving it all one at a time
thank you india
thank you terror
thank you disillusionment
thank you frailty
thank you consequence
thank you thank you silence
the moment I let go of it was the moment
I got more than I could handle
the moment I jumped off of it
was the moment I touched down
how bout no longer being masochistic
how bout remembering your divinity
how bout unabashedly bawling your eyes out
how bout not equating death with stopping
thank you india
thank you providence
thank you disillusionment
thank you nothingness
thank you clarity
thank you thank you silence

ALANIS MORISSETTE LYRICS
"Ironic"
An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
And isn't it ironic... don't you think
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought... it figures
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
"Well isn't this nice..."
And isn't it ironic... don't you think
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought... it figures
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
In your face
A traffic jam when you're already late
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn't it ironic...don't you think
A little too ironic...and, yeah, I really do think...
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought... it figures
Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Life has a funny, funny way of helping you out
Helping you out

ALANIS MORISSETTE LYRICS
"Hand In My Pocket"
I'm broke but I'm happy
I'm poor but I'm kind
I'm short but I'm healthy, yeah
I'm high but I'm grounded
I'm sane but I'm overwhelmed
I'm lost but I'm hopeful baby
What it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be fine fine fine
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is giving a high five
I feel drunk but I'm sober
I'm young and I'm underpaid
I'm tired but I'm working, yeah
I care but I'm restless
I'm here but I'm really gone
I'm wrong and I'm sorry baby
What it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be quite alright
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is flicking a cigarette
And what it all comes down to
Is that I haven't got it all figured out just yet
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is giving the peace sign
I'm free but I'm focused
I'm green but I'm wise
I'm hard but I'm friendly baby
I'm sad but I'm laughing
I'm brave but I'm chickenshit
I'm sick but I'm pretty baby
And what it all boils down to
Is that no one's really got it figured out just yet
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is playing the piano
And what it all comes down to my friends
Is that everything's just fine fine fine
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is hailing a taxi cab

Lord why am i going through what am i going through right now? it seems i am losing the horizon. You are pointing me to lead others but why can't i lead myself? i know that all things work for the good of those who love You, i am holding on to that promise. I know You keep your promises.
Lord can you please cause me to hold a little more and be a little patient with life? during these times i don't need dream stealers and brain corruptors. Lord can You please lead to people who will teach me to love You in spite of and despite of? Lord can You please shut my ears to the whispers of dream stealers and mind corruptors?
Lord cause me to maintain a positive outlook in life. i am so overwhelmed with my life today and i must admit i am so vulnerable. caused me to put on the armor of life and press on to the job that You have commissioned me. Remind me always that "You must become greater and I must become less". may i also be reminded that "to live is Christ and to die is gain."
in the midst of this temporal universe caused me to focus on eternity. protect me from all kinds of temptations and cause me to flee from temptations. i submit my thoughts to You for i know all my sinful tendencies dwell in my mind. cover me with Your blood that i may present my self worthy.

IN THE ABSENCE OF GRAVITY
i am in a very devastating point in my life.
i am reduced into a very materialistic view point
i get so dumb and lonely
nothing amaze me anymore
i let feelings overpower me
i go where my sensations lead me
i am a prisoner
a captive of my own destruction
i am totally dispersed
and i am having difficulty to unify myself
i can't contain it
i fail to gravitate
i long to be stabilized
i have to, it's a must
it's getting late
i'm running out of time
i am reduced into a very materialistic view point
i get so dumb and lonely
nothing amaze me anymore
i let feelings overpower me
i go where my sensations lead me
i am a prisoner
a captive of my own destruction
i am totally dispersed
and i am having difficulty to unify myself
i can't contain it
i fail to gravitate
i long to be stabilized
i have to, it's a must
it's getting late
i'm running out of time
FORGIVING
I have been watching Spiderman sequels. I rarely watch a film on the silver screen. I am not choosy on films but I treasure almost every peso I spend because I am very particular with my financial stewardship since I was raised in scarcity. Every time I enter a cinema for a movie I see to it that the memory of my stay will linger.
Spiderman sequel is one of those films that I really wanted to spend time with. The story is not just about heroism. It is a story of wisdom; a film with a life of its own.
Since I watched Spiderman sequel I look forward to Spiderman III to come summer of 2007 due to the observed show date of the first two; and it did not fail me. I really waited for the show date, only to find out that I can not afford to watch my much-awaited film. It was shown for a month yet chance was so scarce.
Fortunately, last August 27, I was able to watch it. Late but just in time… in time with what I am going through right now.
Spiderman III is a story of friendship and forgiveness. So far, it’s the best.
Sorry, a common term for all. Its familiarity supersedes its meaning. We say sorry to, originally, ask for forgiveness but nowadays sorry conveys compliance, maybe to social norm; it’s ought to be done; thus, the essence of forgiveness was robbed. Following this path, the current condition may breed bitterness because the act lacks sincerity and truthfulness.
The word sorry is commonly responded it’s OK or its fine, which may symbolize vagueness.
Spiderman’s release of forgiveness brought freedom to Sandman. Although, Sandman did not directly beg for forgiveness (meaning did not say sorry) the expression of remorse was sincere and it touches the soul.
I envy the scene. Sometimes, the perceived shallowness of the mistake makes asking for forgiveness compliance to the prevailing norm and the response was literally a response. Asking for forgiveness and releasing forgiveness are the two most difficult things to do in life, especially when the situations have devastated the inmost being; events that caused bitterness, resentment and/or anger. Nevertheless, asking for and releasing forgiveness brings freedom and empowerment to an individual.

I SEE MYSELF (click to view video)
DOES ANYBODY HEAR HER?
by Casting Crown
She is running
A hundred miles an hour in the wrong direction
She is trying
But the canyon's ever widening
In the depths of her cold heart
So she sets out on another misadventure just to find
She's another two years older
And she's three more steps behind
Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?
Or does anybody even know she's going down today
Under the shadow of our steeple
With all the lost and lonely people
Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me
Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?
She is yearning
For shelter and affection
That she never found at home
She is searching
For a hero to ride in
To ride in and save the day
And in walks her prince charming
And he knows just what to say
Momentary lapse of reason
And she gives herself away
Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?
Or does anybody even know she's going down today
Under the shadow of our steeple
With all the lost and lonely people
Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me
Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?
If judgment looms under every steeple
If lofty glances from lofty people
Can't see past her scarlet letter
And we've never even met her
If judgment looms under every steeple
If lofty glances from lofty people
Can't see past her scarlet letter
And we've never even met her
Never even met her
Does anybody hear her? Does anybody see?
Or does anybody even knows she's going down today
Under the shadow of our steeple
With all the lost and lonely people
Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me
Does anybody hear her? Does anybody see?
Does anybody even know she's going down today?
Under the shadow of our steeple
With all the lost and lonely people
Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me

He is running a hundred miles an hour in the wrong direction
what a reflection of who am i. it's exactly what i feel; and exactly what others feel.
