Alanis Morissette

Alanis Morissette - Your Congratulations lyrics

I wouldn't have compromised so much

so much of myself for fear of

having you hating me

I would've sung so loudly

it would've cracked myself!

I became self-conscious

of anything exuberant

I wouldn't have sold myself short

I wouldn't have kept my eyes

glued to the ground

if I had've known my invisibility

would not make a difference

I would've run around screaming proudly

at the top of my voice

I wouldn't have said it was in fact luck

i'm talking idealism here

I would not have been so self deprecating

I wouldn't have cowered

for fear of having my eyes scratched out!

I wouldn't have cut my comfort off

I wouldn't have feigned needlessness

I would not have discredited

every one of their compliments

it was your approval I wanted

your congratulations
