Out Is Through

Alanis Morissette

1. Every time you raise your voice I see the greener grass
   Every time you run for cover I see this pasture
   Anytime we're in a rut, this distant grandeur
   
   My tendency to want to do away feels natural
   my urgency to dream of softer places feels understandable but I know

R: The only way out is through
   The faster we're in the better
   The only way out is through ultimately
   The only way out is through
   The only way we'll feel better
   The only way out is through ultimately

2. Every time that I'm confused I think there must be easier ways
   Every time our horns are locked I'm towel throwing
   Every time we're at a loss we've bolted from difficulty
   Anytime we're in stalemate, a final bowing
   
   My tendency to want to hide away feels easier
   The immediacy of picturing another place, comforting to go but I know

R: The only way out...

*: We could just walk away and hide our heads in the sand
   We could just call it quits only to start all over again, with
   somebody else

3. Every time we're stuck in struggle I'm down for the count that day
   Every time I dream of quick fix I'm assuaged
   Now I know it's hard when it's through and I'm damned if I 
   don't,no quick fix way
   What formerly was treatment silent's now outdated
   
   My tendency to want to run feels unnatural now
   The urgency to want to give to you what I want most feels good and I know

R: The only way out... (2x)
