13 years or so, it is clear…its the PILL!
what pill lets you wait until the sun settles? yes, it is indeed ECSTACY.
I have so surrounded the idea with doubt as a young girl and Alanis was just too nice to be thought of to be taking it. Here and now, its not too bad after all, not good either but not so bad.
Why do I believe it to be this now? well there’s a song off the new album, Flavors of Entanglement that says it all… Alanis is too clever a writer, she can always coat her writings to be less malicious but being a fan and a not so regular popper–I read between the lines.
Lyrics to Giggling Again for No Reason
I am driving in my car up highway one
I left LA without telling anyone
There were people who needed something from me
But I am sure they’ll get along fine on their own
Oh this state of ecstasy
Nothing but road could ever give to me
This liberty wind in my face
And I’m giggling again for no reason
I am dancing with my friends in elation
We’ve taken adventures to new levels of fun
I can feel the bones are smiling in my body
I can see the meltings of inhibition
Oh this state of ecstasy
Nothing but road could ever give to me
This liberty wind in my face
And I’m giggling again for no reason
I’m reeling jubilation
Triumphant in delight
I am at home in this high five
And I’m smiling for no reason
I am sitting at the set of cali sun
We’ve gotten quiet for its’ last precious seconds
I can feel the salt of the sea on my skin
And we still hear the echoes of abandon
Oh this state of ecstasy.
