"Reasons I Drink" lyrics - ALANIS MORISSETTE

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

[Pre-Chorus:]
And nothing can give reprieve like they do
Nothing can give a break for this soldier like they do

[Chorus:]
Here we are
I feel such rapture and my comfort is so strong, oh
One more hit
It feels so helpful in my need for respite, oh

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

[Pre-Chorus:]
Nothing can give reprieve like they do
Nothing can give me a break from this torture like they do

[Chorus:]
Here we are
I feel such rapture and my comfort is so strong, oh
One more sip
It feels so helpful in my need for some long overdue respite, oh

[Bridge:]
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

[Chorus:]
Here we are
I feel such rapture and my comfort is so strong, oh
One more rip
I go from one lilipad to another to stay lit, oh
