Alanis Morissette - Surrendering lyrics

you were full and fully capable you were self sufficient and needless your house was fully decorated in that sense you were taken with me to a point a case of careful what you wish for but what you knew was enough to begin and so you called and courted fiercely so you reached out, entirely fearless and yet you knew of reservation and how it serves and I salute you for your courage and I applaud your perseverance and I embrace you for your faith in the face of adversarial forces that I represent so you were in but not entirely you were up for this but not totally you knew how arms length-ing can maintain doubt and so you fell and you're intact so you dove in and you're still breathing so you jumped and you're still flying if not shocked and I support you in your trusting and I commend you for your wisdom and I'm amazed by your surrender in the face of threatening forces that I represent you found creative ways to distance you hid away from much through humor your choice of armor was your intellect and so you felt and you're still here and so you died and you're still standing and so you softened and you're still safely in command self protection was in times of true danger your best defense to mistrust and be wary surrendering a feat of unequalled measure and I'm thrilled to let you in overjoyed to be let in in kind
