Alanis Morissette - Flinch

What's it been over a decade? 
It still smarts like it was four minutes ago 
We only influenced each other totally 
We only bruised each other even more so What are you my blood? 
You touch me like you are my blood 
What are you my dad? 
You affect me like you are my dad 
How long can a girl be shackled to you 
How long before my dignity is reclaimed 
How long can a girl stay haunted by you Soon I'll grow up and I won't even flinch at your name 
Soon I'll grow up and I won't even flinch at your name 
Where've you been?
 I heard you moved to my city 
My brother saw you somewhere downtown I'd be paralyzed if I ran into you 
My tongue would seize up if we were to meet again 
What are you my god? 
You touch me like you are my god 
What are you my twin? 
You affect me like you are my twin
 How long can a girl be tortured by you? 
How long before my dignity is reclaimed 
And how long can a girl be haunted by you Soon I'll grow up and I won't even flinch at your name 
Soon I'll grow up and I won't even flinch at your name 
So here I am one room away from where I know you're standing 
A well-intentioned man told me you just walked in 
This man knows not of how this information has affected me 
But he knows the colour of the car I just drove away in 
What are you my kin? 
You touch me like you are my kin 
What are you my air? 
You affect me like you are my air
