ALANIS MORISSETTE LYRICS - Straitjacket

"Straitjacket"



Something so benign for me construed as cruelty

Such a difference between who I am and who you see



Conclusions you come to of me routinely incorrect

I don’t know who you’re talking to with such fucking disrespect



This shit’s making me crazy

The way you nullify what’s in my head

You say one thing do another

And argue that’s not what you did

Your way’s making me mental

How you filter as skewed interpret

I swear you won’t be happy til

I am bound in a straight jacket



Talking with you’s like talking to a sive that can’t hear me

You fight me tooth and nail to disavow what’s happening



Your resistance to a mirror I feel screaming from your body

One day I’ll introduce myself and you’ll see you’ve not yet met me



This shit’s making me crazy

The way you nullify what’s in my head

You say one thing do another

And argue that’s not what you did

Your way’s making me mental

How you filter as skewed interpret

I swear you won’t be happy til

I am bound in a straight jacket



Grand dissonance

The strings of my puppet are cut

The end of an era

Your discrediting’s lost my consent
