Pollyanna Flower Lyrics

(Through you, I see I)

Between a broken nose and a fake smile
Between piety and gun powder
Between fighting and fleeing the scene
Between murder and diplomacy
Between aggression and end of the odd
Between brutal and realistically well-behaved
Between screaming and pulling in the reins
Between tiptoeing and ambling

What am I to do with all this fire?
(I'd like to hate you, but I could never hate you)
Why are you still with me in this red space?
(I'd like to slap you, but I'd never slap you)

Between violence and silently seething
Between my fist and my pollyanna flower
Between "Fuck you" to your face and "It's all right"
Between war and denial

Between violence and silently seething
Between my fist and my pollyanna flower
Between "Fuck you" to your face and "It's all right"Alanis Morissette - Pollyanna Flower - http://motolyrics.com/alanis-morissette/pollyanna-flower-lyrics.html
Between war and denial

Between flying vases and secretly weeping
Between loose cannons and ever down-playing
Between bruises and rudely differing
Between bursting and boiling

What am I to do with all this burning?
(I'd like to hurt you, but I could never hurt you)
Do I overwhelm you in this place?
(I'd like to kill you, but I'd never kill you)

Between violence and silently seething
Between my fist and my pollyanna flower
Between "Fuck you" to your face and "It's all right"
Between war and denial

Between violence and silently seething
Between my fist and my pollyanna flower
Between "Fuck you" to your face and "It's all right"
Between war and denial

What am I to do with all this fire?
Can you understand me in this place?
