Alanis Morissette — Reckoning

[Verse 1] Hey, hey, little wonder You walked the fields with all the fences down You never knew the scent of the predator You didn't know the house was on fire [Chorus 1] And so you worked as you should While they prey'd on all you ached for And they pounced as they would While the guards were away, oh [Verse 2] Hey, hey, you marauders You got away while they claim I'm a liar Why aren't the gods and heroes all around me? And everyone's turning their eyes to the ground [Chorus 2] And so you strike while it's hot While the barricades are broken You attacked at your will While all the locks are frayed, oh [Verse 3] Hey, hey, you denier Finally everyone is gathering 'round me Now that we all know better, you'll be haunted I hope you enjoy these drawings in your jail [Chorus 3] And so brace, brace yourself For this reckoning day I was once, at a loss Now I stand at the gate, oh
