ALANIS regresa...
Aquí te pongo su sencillo
HANDS CLEAN
If it weren't for your maturity none of
this would have happened
If you weren't so wise beyond your years I
would've been able to control myself
If it weren't for my attention you
wouldn't have been successful and
If it weren't for me you would never have
amounted to very much
Ooh this could be messy
But you don't seem to mind
Ooh don't go telling everybody
And overlook this supposed crime
We'll fast forward to a few years later
And no one knows except the both of us
And I have honored your request for silence
And you've washed your hands clean of this
You're essentially an employee and I like
you having to depend on me
You're kind of my protégé and one day
you'll say you learned all you know from me
I know you depend on me like a young thing
would to a guardian
I know you sexualize me like a young thing
would and I think I like it
Ooh this could get messy…
what part of our history's reinvented and under rug swept?
what part of your memory is selective and
tends to forget?
what with this distance it seems so obvious?
Just make sure you don't tell on me
especially to members of your family
We best keep this to ourselves and not
tell any members of our inner posse
I wish I could tell the world cuz you're such a pretty thing when you're done up properly
I might want to marry you one day if you
watch that weight and keep your firm body
Ooh this could be messy and
Ooh I don't seem to mind
Ooh don't go telling everybody
And overlook this supposed crime
PRECIOUS
ILLUSIONS
you'll rescue me right? in
the exact same way they never did..
I'll be happy right? when
your healing powers kick in
you'll complete me right? then
my life can finally begin
I'll be worthy right? only
when you realize the gem I am?
but this won't work now the way it once did
and I won't keep it up even though I would
love to
once I know who I'm not then I'll know who I am
but I know I won't keep on playing the victim
these precious illusions in my head did not let
me down when I was defenseless
and parting with them is like parting with
invisible best friends
this ring will me yet as will you knight in
shining armor
this pill will help me yet as will these boys
gone through like water
but this won't work as well as the way it
once did
cuz I want to decide between survival and
bliss
and though I know who I'm not I still don't
know who I am
but I know I won't keep on playing the victim
these precious illusions in my head did not let
me down when I was a kid
and parting with them is like parting with a
childhood best friend
I've spent so long firmly looking outside
me
I've spent so much time living in survival
mode
Deep song… straight to the bone
YOU OWE ME NOTHING IN
RETURN
I'll give you countless amounts of
out-right
acceptance if you want it. I will give you
encouragment to choose the path that you
want if you need it.
You can speak of anger and doubts,
your fears and freak-outs and I'll hold it.
You can share your so-called "shamefilled" accounts
of times in your life and I won't judge it.
And there are no strings attached to it.
You owe me nothing for giving the love
that I give.
You owe me nothing for caring the way that
I have.
I give you thanks for receiving, it's my
privilege,
and you owe me nothing in return.
You can ask for space for yourself
and only yourself and I'll grant it.
You can ask for freedom as well
or time to travel and you'll have it.
You can ask to live by yourself
or love someone else and I'll support it.
You can ask for anything you want,
anything at all and I'll understand it.
And there are no strings attached to it.
You owe me nothing for giving the love
that I give.
You owe me nothing for caring the way
that I have.
I give you thanks for receiving, it's my
privilege,
and you owe me nothing in return.
I bet you're wondering when
the next payback shoe will eventually drop.
I bet you're wondering when my
conditional police will force you to cough up.
I bet you're wondering how far you
have now dancéd your
way back into debt.
This is the only kind of love
as I understand it that there really is.
You can express your deepest of thruths
even if it means I'll lose you and I'll hear
it.
You can fall into the abyss on your way to
your bliss,
I'll empathize with.
You can say that you'll have to skip town
to chase your passion and I'll hear it.
You can leave and hit rock bottom
have a mid-life chrisis
and I'll hold it.
And there are no strings attached to it.
