Alanis Morissette ~ This Grudge


Fourteen years thirty minutes fifteen seconds I've held this grudge Eleven songs four full journals thoughts of punishment I've expended Not in contact not a letter such communication telepathic you've been vilified used as fodder you deserve a piece of every record But who's it hurting now? Who's the one that's stuck? Who's it torturing now with an antique knot in her stomach? I want to be big and let go of this grudge that's grown old all this time I've not known how to rest this bygone I wanna be soft and resolved clean of slate and released I wanna forgive for the both of us Like an abandoned house dusty covered furniture still intact If I visit it now will I simply re-live it somehow gratuitous But who's still aching now? Who's tired of her own voice? Who is it weighing down With no gift from time of said healing I want to be big and let go of this grudge that's grown old all this time I've not known how to rest this bygone I wanna be soft and resolved clean of slate and released I wanna forgive for the both of us Maybe as I cut the cord veils will lift from my eyes Maybe as I lay this to rest dead weight off my shoulders will rise Here I sit much determined ever ill-equipped to draw this curtain how this has entertained validated and has served me well ever the victim But who's done whining now? Who's ready to put down this load I've carried longer than I had cared to remember I want to be big and let go of this grudge that's grown old For the life of me I've not known how to rest this bygone I wanna be soft and resolved clean of slate and released I wanna forgive for the both of us. more free lyrics

Fourteen years
thirty minutes
fifteen seconds I've
held this grudge

Eleven songs
four full journals
thoughts of punishment
I've expended

Not in contact
not a letter
such communication
telepathic
you've been vilified
used as fodder
you deserve a piece
of every record

But who's it hurting now?
Who's the one that's stuck?
Who's it torturing now
with an antique knot in her stomach?

I want to be big and let go
of this grudge that's grown old
all this time I've not known
how to rest this bygone
I wanna be soft and resolved
clean of slate and released
I wanna forgive for the both of us

Like an abandoned house
dusty covered
furniture
still intact
If I visit it now
will I simply re-live it
somehow gratuitous

But who's still aching now?
Who's tired of her own voice?
Who is it weighing down
With no gift from time of said healing

I want to be big and let go
of this grudge that's grown old
all this time I've not known
how to rest this bygone
I wanna be soft and resolved
clean of slate and released
I wanna forgive for the both of us

Maybe as I cut the cord
veils will lift from my eyes
Maybe as I lay this to rest
dead weight off my shoulders will rise

Here I sit
much determined
ever ill-equipped
to draw this curtain
how this has entertained
validated
and has served me well
ever the victim

But who's done whining now?
Who's ready to put down
this load I've carried longer than I had cared to remember

I want to be big and let go
of this grudge that's grown old
For the life of me I've not known
how to rest this bygone
I wanna be soft and resolved
clean of slate and released
I wanna forgive for the both of us.

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
