Alanis Morissette — Forgiven lyrics

Lyrics

You know how us Catholic girls can be We make up for so much time a little too late
I never forgot it, confusing as it was
No fun with no guilt feelings
The sinners, the saviors, the loverless priests
I’ll see you next Sunday
We all had our reasons to be there
We all had a thing or two to learn
We all needed something to cling to So we did
I sang Alleluia in the choir
I confessed my darkest deeds to an envious man
My brothers they never went blind for what they did
But I may as well have
In the name of the Father, the Skeptic and the Son
I had one more stupid question
(repeat chorus)
What I learned I rejected but I believe again
I will suffer the consequence of this inquisition
If I jump in this fountain, will I be forgiven
(repeat chorus)
We all had delusions in our head
We all had our minds made up for us We had to belive in something
So we did
