Receive

Alanis Morissette · Havoc and Bright Lights [2012]

I wake up and first thing's first: I'm of service

I make sure your needs are met as a selfless

I give hard and serve hard and now I, I need a break

I give big, I give all and now it's time to regenerate



Today's all about me

All about cup-filling

Today's all about me

Learning how, how to receive

How to receive

Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-no-ohh

Oh-ohh-oh



I move on through offerings, often one-sided

Being this low on list of worth: over-extended

I give hard, provide hard and now I need some relief

I look out, I proffer and now I need some respite indeed



Today's all about me

All about cup-filling

Today's all about me

Learning how, how to receive

How to receive

Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-no-ohh

Oh-ohh-oh



My habit to love you first and me: remainders

Favouring you is so knee-jerk, leaves me a stranger

I give hard, impart hard and now I need to retreat

I give out, dedicate and now I need to acknowledge me



Today's all about me

All about cup-filling

Today's all about me

Learning how, how to receive

How to receive

Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-ohh, woah-oh

How to receive

Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-ohh, woah-oh

How to receive

Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-ohh, woah-oh

How to receive

Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-ohh, woah-oh

How to receive
