Reasons I Drink

Reasons I Drink - Alanis Morissette/Michael Farrell

These are the reasons I drink

The reasons I tell everybody

I'm fine even though I am not

These are the reasons I overdo it

I have been working since I can remember since

I was single digits

Now even though I've been busted

I don't know where to draw the

Line 'cause that groove has gotten so deep

And nothing can give reprieve like they do

Nothing can give a break for this soldier like they do

Here we are

I feel such rapture and my comfort

Is so strong

One more hit

It feels so helpful in my need for respite

And here are the reasons I eat

Reasons I feel everything so deeply when

I'm not medicated

And so that's it

I am buying a Lamborghini

To make up for these habits to

Survive this sick industry

Nothing can give reprieve like they do

Nothing can give me a break

From this torture like they do

Here we are

I feel such rapture and my comfort is so strong

One more sip

It feels so helpful in my need for some

Long overdue respite

And these are the reasons

I don't even think

I would quit

And these are the reasons

I can't even see straight

And these are the ones whom

I know it so deeply affects

And I am left wondering how

I would function without it

Here we are

I feel such rapture and my comfort is so strong

One more rip

I go from one lilipad to another to stay lit
