Morissette, Alanis - Precious Illusions Lyrics
You'll rescue me. Right?
In the exact same way they never did.
I'll be happy. Right?
When your healing powers kick in.
Then my life can finally begin.
I'll be worthy. Right?
Only when you realize the gem I am.
But this won't work now the way it once did.
And I won't keep it up even though I would love to.
Once I know who I'm not then I'll know who I am,
But I know I won't keep on playing the victim.
These precious illusions in my head did not let me down
And parting with them is like parting with invisible best friends.
This ring will help me yet as will you, knight in shining armour.
This pill will help me yet as will these boys gone through like water.
But this won't work as well as the way it once did
'Cause I want to decide between survival and bliss.
And though I know who I'm not I still don't know who I am,
But I know I won't keep on playing the victim.
These precious illusions in my head did not let me down when I was a kid.
And parting with them is like parting with a childhood best friend.
I've spent so long firmly looking outside me.
I've spent so much time living in survival mode.
This won't work now the way it once did
'Cause I want to decide between survival and bliss.
And though I know who I'm not I still don't know who I am,
But I know I won't keep on playing the victim.
These precious illusions in my head did not let me down
When I was defenceless.
And parting with them is like parting with invisible best friends.
These precious illusions in my head did not let me down
When I was a kid.
And parting with them is like parting with a childhood best friend.
