Kanadská rocková písničkářka Alanis Morissette okouzlila svět svým multiplatinovým debutem "Jagged Little Pill" z roku 1995. V 90. letech vytvořila celý nový trend „osamocených žen s kytarou“ – Alanis však mezi všemi vyniká silou svých výpovědí,...

Píseň: Receive

Havoc And Bright Lights
I wake up and first things 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


[Chorus:]
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


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


[Chorus:]
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


My habit to love you first and me: remainders
Favoring 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


[Chorus:]
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
How to receive
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
How to receive
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
How to receive
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
How to receive
