Hey ya'll -

I just heard Alanis Morisette's new single "Everything" and I must say that I'm digging it.
The lyrics are grand.
I know that they easily apply to all women, all people, everyone, but they seem so very mutable to me:

Everything

I can be an @sshole of the grandest kind
I can withhold like it’s going out of style
I can be the moodiest baby and you’ve never met anyone
who is as negative as I am sometimes

I am the wisest woman you've ever met.
I am the kindest soul with whom you've connected.
I have the bravest heart that you've ever seen
And you've never met anyone
Who's as positive as I am sometimes.

You see everything, you see every part
You see all my light and you love my dark
You dig everything of which I'm ashamed
There's not anything to which you can’t relate
And you’re still here

I blame everyone else, not my own partaking
My passive-aggressiveness can be devastating
I'm terrified and mistrusting
And you’ve never met anyone as,
As closed down as I am sometimes.

You see everything, you see every part
You see all my light and you love my dark
You dig everything of which I'm ashamed
There's not anything to which you can’t relate
And you’re still here

What I resist, persists, and speaks louder than I know
What I resist, you love, no matter how low or high I go

I'm the funniest woman you've ever known.
I am the dullest woman you've ever known.
I'm the most gorgeous woman you've ever known
And you've never met anyone as, as everything as I am sometimes.

You see everything, you see every part
You see all my light and you love my dark
You dig everything of which I'm ashamed
There's not anything to which you can’t relate
And you’re still here

And you’re still here
And you're still here...

What do ya'll think?

totally, prox. i've been loving this tune. i'm a big proponent of driving therapy, with the radio turned way up, and this song is PERfect. i especially love to belt out the "you see all my light and you love my dark" part - she sure knows what it means to be a woman!
thanks for posting the lyrics.

Oh gosh, I know, Proxie, I love how she works her lyrics and soulful voice.
She writes real music, and I love it.

And she IS mutable...she's a Twin, both in sign, and in birth! True story.
