Yes, me Ms. Naturally Alise is the biggest Alanis Morrisette fan ever.  Shocked?   Don’t be.  Have you checked out her lyrics… AWESOMENESS.  Definitely a poet.  Here are my favorites:

“Simple Together”
This songs makes me cry every.single.time. I don’t have a favorite line, the whole song is just… just…. EVERYTHING.

You’ve been my golden best friend
Now with post-demise at hand
Can’t go to you for consolation
Cause we’re off limits during this transition
This grief overwhelms me
It burns in my stomach
And i can’t stop bumping into things
I thought we’d be simple together
I thought we’d be happy together
Thought we’d be limitless together
I thought we’d be precious together
But i was sadly mistaken
You’ve been my soulmate and mentor
I remembered you the moment i met you
With you i knew god’s face was handsome
With you i suffered an expansion
This loss is numbing me
It pierces my chest
And i can’t stop dropping everything
I thought we’d be sexy together
Thought we’d be evolving together
I thought we’d have children together
I thought we’d be family together
But i was sadly mistaken
If i had a bill for all the philosophies i shared
If i had a penny for all the possibilities i presented
If i had a dime for every hand thrown up in the air
My wealth would render this no less severe
I thought we’d be genius together
I thought we’d be healing together
I thought we’d be growing together
Thought we’d be adventurous togheter
But i was sadly mistaken
Thought we’d be exploring together
Thought we’d be inspired together
I thought we’d be flying together
Thought we’d be on fire together
But i was sadly mistaken

“You Oughta Know”
“

’cause the joke that you laid on the bed that was me
And I’m not gonna fade
As soon as you close your eyes and you know it
And every time I scratch my nails down someone else’s back
I hope you feel it…well can you feel it?
Well, I’m here to remind you
Of the mess you left when you went away
It’s not fair to deny me
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
You, you, you oughta know”

“Princes Familiar”
Ummm, dads can you listen to this, please?

papa love your princess so that she will find loving princes familiar
papa cry for your princess so that she will find gentle princes familiar

“You Learn”
So simple.  Perfect song.

You live you learn
You love you learn
You cry you learn
You lose you learn
You bleed you learn
You scream you learn

You grieve you learn
You choke you learn
You laugh you learn
You choose you learn
You pray you learn
You ask you learn
You live you learn
