Testo Ablaze Alanis Morissette

Ablaze

The first thing that you'll notice is some separation from each other
Yes it's a lie, is that we've been believing since time en memorial
There was an apple, there was a snake, there was division
There was a split, there was a conflict in the fabric of life

One became two and then everyone was out for themselves
Everyone was pitted against each other; conflict ruled the realm
All our devotions and temperaments are pulled from different wells
They seem to easily forget we are made of the same cells

To my boy, all that energy so wild
All your hues and your blues in equal measure
Your comings and your goings-away
My mission is to keep the light in your eyes ablaze

The second thing you'll notice is that often we think that there's not enough
It might feel dark, it might feel lonely and you'll wonder why you're here
You may be overcome with darkness and a sense of hopelessness
But it won't matter if you keep your core connected to the one-ness

To my girl, to your innocence and fire
When you reach out, I am here hell or high water
This nest is never going away
My mission is to keep the light in your eyes ablaze

And this cord is unbreakable
This pilot light is there in your pocket
And this bond, beyond un-shakeable
Even if we all forget
All at the same time
All at the same time
If we forget at the same time

The tenth thing you might notice is that everyone has fantasies
Different perspectives they would likely fight over who is right and
Who is the best? Who has won? Who's better than the other?
None of that will matter much when you return to your place in the sun
Your place in the sun

To my girl, all your innocence and fire
When you reach out, I am here hell or high water
This nest is never going away
My mission is to keep the light in your eyes

To my boy, all that energy so wild
Love your hues and your blues in equal measure
Your comings and your goings-away
My mission is to keep the light in your eyes ablaze

The first thing that you'll notice is that everything is temporary
The next that you might notice is that we will always be a family
My mission is to keep the light in your eyes ablaze
