Текст песни Alanis Morissette - The Couch
You hadn't seen your father in such a long timeHe died in the arms of his lover how dare heYour mother never left the houseShe never married anyone else you took it upon yourself to console herYou reminded her so much of your fatherSo you were banished and you wonder why you're so hypersensitiveAnd why you can't trust anyone but us( )But then how can I begin to forgive her under so many bridges with dirty waterShe was foolish and selfish and cowardly if you ask meI don't know where to begin in all of my 50 odd yearsI have been silently suffering and adapting perpetuating and enduringWho are you younger generation to tell me that I have unresolved problemsNot many examples of fruits of this type of excruciating labourHow can you just throw words around like grieve and heal and mournI feel fine we may not have been born as awake as you wereIt was much harder in those days we had paper routes up hill both waysWe went from school to a job to a wife to instant parenthoodI walked into his office I felt so self conscious on the couchHe was sitting down across from me he was writing down his hypothesis I don't knowI've got a loving supportive wife who doesn't know how involved she should getYou say his interjecting was him just calling me on my shit?Just the other day my sweet daughterI was driving past 203 I walked up the stairs in my mind's eyeI remember how they would creak loudlyShe was only responsive with a drink she was only responsive by photoI was only trying to be the best big brother I couldI've walked sometimes confused sometimes ready to crack open wideSometimes indignant sometimes rawCan you imagine I pay him 75 dollars an hour sometimesIt feels like highway robberyAnd sometimes its peanutsI wish it could last a couple more hoursSo here we both are battling similar demons ( not coincidentally)You see in getting beyond knowing its solely intellectuallyYou're not relinquishing your majestryYou are wise you are warm you are courageous you are bigAnd I love you more now than I ever have in my whole life
