Alanis

"Ironic", the song takes on the energy of a rocky relationship.

Alanis

Going in circles
Twelve rounds we go
Fighting delusions
That we are at war

Supposed to be a team
but we ain’t playing on the same side
Shit is so Ironic on Alanis I’ve been
Paying for a free ride

Supposed to be a team
but we ain’t even playing on the same side
Shit is so Ironic on Alanis I’ve been
Paying for a free ride

Where did we go so wrong
How long have we ignored the truth
Buying our time in the end we both
Got nothing to lose
Is like we’re burning (burning) in this fire
And then we’re drowning (drowning) under water

Supposed to be a team
but we ain’t playing on the same side
Shit is so Ironic on Alanis I’ve been
Paying for a free ride

Supposed to be a team
but we ain’t even playing on the same side
Shit is so Ironic on Alanis I’ve been
Paying for a free ride

Why do we love the ones that hurt us and hurt the ones that love us
We ignore the ones who adore us and adore the ones who ignore us
It’s like you never know what you got until it’s gone
It’s like a free ride when you’ve already paid
Or being scared of heights while flying a plane
Ain’t home supposed to be our shelter from the storm

How can we both be so blind
How could they say love is stronger than pride

Supposed to be a team
but we ain’t even playing on the same side
Shit is so Ironic on Alanis I’ve been
Paying for a free free free ride
Supposed to be a team
but we ain’t playing on the same side
Shit is so Ironic on Alanis I’ve been
Paying for a
free ride (free ride free ride)

Paying for a
free ride free ride (free ride free ride)

Paying for a
Free free free ride
