ALANIS MORISSETTE – Havoc

Just when I thought
I had handles on this
I can soften my guard behind false confidence

Just when I felt
Humbled by insipid
Exempt from this blind-side and from reading a script
Cause I am seduced by reaction and under the influence
I’m slipping again
I’m up to old tricks off my wagon
I have no defense I’m
Wreaking havoc
Wreaking havoc and consequence

I get reduced by my own willfulness as
I reach for my usual God replacements
Cause I reach for sanction and lax in my steps

I’m slipping again
Up to my tricks off my wagon
I have no defense I’m
Wreaking havoc
Wreaking havoc and consequence

If forgiveness is understanding than
Affirming a compact for the millionth time
From this tumbling house of cards of mine

I am beaten by my impulsiveness
By this uncanny foreshadowing of regret
Cause I’m repulsed by restriction at least that’s my excuse

I’m slipping again
I’m up to old tricks off my wagon
I have no defense I’m
Wreaking havoc
From v
Wreaking havoc and consequence

I’m slipping again
I’m up to old tricks off my wagon
I have no defense
I’m wreaking havoc
Wreaking havoc and consequence
