Lyrics - Can´t Not by Alanis Morissette

i´d be lying if
I said
I was completely unscathed
I might be proving you right with my silence or my retaliationwould
I be letting you win in my non reaction?how would
I explain?how would
I explain this to my childre if
I had them?because
I can´t notbecause
I can´t notbecause
I can´t afford to be misread one more timewould
I be whining if
I said
I needed a hug?would you feel slighted if
I said your love´s not enough?how can
I complain?how can
I complain when
I´m the one who reaches for it?because
I can´t notbecause
I can´t notbecause
I cannot walk without my crutchesbecause
I can´t notbecause
I can´t notbecause
I can´t help wonder why you ask meto all the unheard wisdom in the schoolyardyou think you´re the right onesyou think you´re the charmed ones i´m surehow can you go on with such conviction?and who do you think you are why do you question me?because we can´t notbecause we can´t notbecause we can´t help laugh at underestimationsbecause we can´t notbecause we can´t notbecause we can´t afford to be misled one more timebecause we can´t notbecause we can´t notbecause we cannot help without your willingnesswhy do you affect me? why do you affect me still?why do you hinder me? why do you hinder me still?why do you unnerve me? why do you unnerve me stillwhy do you trigger me? why do you trigger me still
