Guardian Lyrics - Guardian Album - Alanis Morissette

You, you who smiled when you're in pain 

You who soldiered through the profane 

They were distracted and shut down 

So why, why would you talk to me at all 

Such words were dishonorable and in vain 

Their promise as solid as a fog 

And where was your watchman then 

I'll be your keeper for life as your guardian 

I'll be your warrior of care, your first warden 

I'll be your angel on call, I'll be on demand 

The greatest honor of all as your guardian 

You, you in the chaos feigning sane 

You who has pushed beyond what's humane 

Them as the ghostly tumbleweed 

And where was your watchman then 

I'll be your keeper for life as your guardian 

I'll be your warrior of care, your first warden 

I'll be your angel on call, I'll be on demand 

The greatest honor of all as your guardian 

Now no more smiling mid crest fall 

No more managing unmanageables 

No more holding still in the hailstorm 

Now enter your watch woman 

I'll be your keeper for life as your guardian 

I'll be your warrior of care, your first warden 

I'll be your angel on call, I'll be on demand 

The greatest honor of all as your guardian
