Can’t Not Lyrics
Alanis Morissette
Id be lying if I said I was completely unscathed,
Would I be putting it right with my silence and rage
Would I be letting you in; invite a reaction, yeah?
And how would I explain
How would I explain this to my children if I had them?
Because I cant not
Because I cant not
Because I cant not win without my losing, my dear
Would it be whining if I said I needed a hug?
Would you feel slighted if I said your loves not enough?
And how dare I complain?
And how dare I complain when you want for a chance for this?
Because I cant not
Because I cant not
Because I cant help laugh at your delusions
Because I cant not
Because I cant not
Because I cant help wonder why you ask me
To all the unheard children in the school yard
You think youre the right ones
You swear youre the charmed ones Im sure
But how can you go on with such conviction?
Who do you think you are when you question me?
Because we cant not
Because we cant not
Because we cant help laugh at your delusions
Because we cant not
Why do you affect me?
Why do you affect me still?
Why do you hinder me?
Why do you hinder me still?
Because I cant not
Because I cant not
Because I cant not walk without my crutches
