Alanis Morissette - Her lyrics
Artist: Alanis Morissette
album: Such Pretty Forks in the Road
I am on the floor
I am in my kitchen
This place is so familiar on my knees
I can hear the foot-steps
I can see their back walking out
I don't know who to reach for when I need
And so, I'll pray to Her today
I ask for mercy, and I beg for pauses
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
She's coming in warm all like Kali
And coursing through my veins like liquid Mary
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
She's not buying my shell
She sees right through my armor
She lingers in my shadows knowingly
She treats them like they're angels
And maybe they are angels, really
She beckons me to braver inquiry
And so, I pray to Her today
I ask for mercy, and I beg for patience
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
She's coming in hot all like Shakti
And coursing through my veins like liquid Mary
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
And even though she knows me well
It doesn't mean it's easy
To pull me out of my self-imposed hell
♪
She knows all of my secrets
When I'm out of my body
I'm starting to see outlines of her face
♪
She follows me when I run away
And even when I cut her off
She still says that she loves me
Come what may
And so, I pray to Her today
I ask for mercy, and I beg for pauses
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
She's coming in hot like all Kali
And coursing through my veins like liquid Mary
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, oh, oh
I am in my kitchen
This place is so familiar on my knees
I can hear the foot-steps
I can see their back walking out
I don't know who to reach for when I need
And so, I'll pray to Her today
I ask for mercy, and I beg for pauses
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
She's coming in warm all like Kali
And coursing through my veins like liquid Mary
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
She's not buying my shell
She sees right through my armor
She lingers in my shadows knowingly
She treats them like they're angels
And maybe they are angels, really
She beckons me to braver inquiry
And so, I pray to Her today
I ask for mercy, and I beg for patience
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
She's coming in hot all like Shakti
And coursing through my veins like liquid Mary
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
And even though she knows me well
It doesn't mean it's easy
To pull me out of my self-imposed hell
♪
She knows all of my secrets
When I'm out of my body
I'm starting to see outlines of her face
♪
She follows me when I run away
And even when I cut her off
She still says that she loves me
Come what may
And so, I pray to Her today
I ask for mercy, and I beg for pauses
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
She's coming in hot like all Kali
And coursing through my veins like liquid Mary
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, oh, oh
