Wake Up - Alanis Morissette

Choices. Dilemma. Decisions. Irony. 

There will always be two sides in a coin. One cannot appreciate the light without the concept of darkness.  Love is the absence of hate.  Loneliness is not happiness. 

When we reach that moment of caring less for ourselves, we expect a little hug from someone. When we have resolved to stop from our chores and be with somebody else for a chat, that lightens our mood.  Once again, we cannot appreciate bliss without having a concept of sadness.

We put our energy to someone without us realizing that they are so full of themselves, they cannot be disturbed even for a moment.  But when they do find time for you, their minds go off the air, they are not really there.  "I am here, but not really present."

Sleepy? Taking someone for granted? Taking it easy with your work? Getting tired of your routine? Wake up. Realize that somebody else is dreaming of your position, somebody else if longing to be with your priced possession.

Wake up.

"Wake Up"

You like snow but only if it's warm
You like rain but only if it's dry
No sentimental value to the rose that fell on your floor
No fundamental excuse for the granted I'm taken for

'Cause it's easy not to
So much easier not to
And what goes around never comes around to you

You like pain but only if it doesn't hurt too much
And you sit...and you wait...to receive
There's an abvious attraction
To the path of least resistance in your life
There's an obvious aversion no amount of my insistance
Could make you try tonight

'Cause it's easy not to
So much easier not to
And what goes around never comes around to you
To you to you to you to you to you...
There's no love no money no thrill anymore

There's an apprehensive naked little trembling boy
With his head in his hands
There's an underestimated and impatient little girl
Raising her hand

But it's easy not to
So much easier not to
And what goes around never comes around to you
To you, to you

get up get up get up off of it
get up get up get up off of it
get out get outta here enough already
get up get up get up off of it
wake up
