Not as We
June 29, 2008
Alanis is speaking to me…her song Not as We grabs my heart and squeezes it.
Day one
day one
Start over again
Step one
step one
I’m barely making sense
For now I’m faking it
‘Til I’m psuedo-making it
From scratch
begin again
But this time I as “I”
And not as “we”
Gun-shy and shivering
Tear it without a hand
Feign brave but still intent
Little and hardly here
Day one
day one
Start over again
Step one
step one
I’m barely making sense
For now I’m faking it
‘Til I’m psuedo-making it
From scratch, begin again
But this time I as “I”
And not as “we”
Eyes wet,
Toward wide open freight
If God is taking bias,
I pray he wants to lose
Day one
day one
Start over again
Step one
step one
I’m barely making sense
For now I’m faking it
‘Til I’m psuedo-making it
From scratch, begin again
But this time I as “I”
And not as “we”
