Forgiven Lyrics - Alanis Morissette

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 lover-less 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 

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 

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 

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 

We all had delusions in our head 

We all had our minds made up for us 

We had to believe in something 

So we did
