One Hand in My Pocket


So this is the song that describes me at this moment...

"One Hand In my Pocket" By Alanis Morissette

I'm broke but I'm happy, I'm poor but I'm kindI'm short but I'm healthy, yeahI'm high but I'm grounded, I'm sane but I'm overwhelmedI'm lost but I'm hopeful, babyWhat it all comes down toIs that everything's gonna be fine, fine, fine'Cause I've got one hand in my pocketAnd the other one is giving a high five

I feel drunk but I'm sober, I'm young and I'm underpaidI'm tired but I'm working, yeahI care but I'm restless, I'm here but I'm really goneI'm wrong and I'm sorry baby

What it all comes down toIs that everything is going to be quite alright'Cause I've got one hand in my pocketAnd the other one is flicking a cigarette

What it all comes down toIs that I haven't got it all figured out just yet'Cause I've got one hand in my pocketAnd the other one is giving a peace sign

I'm free but I'm focused, I'm green but I'm wiseI'm hard but I'm friendly, babyI'm sad but I'm laughing, I'm brave but I'm chicken shitI'm sick but I'm pretty baby

And what it all boils down toIs that no one's really got it figured out just yetI've got one hand in my pocketAnd the other one is playing the piano

And what it all comes down to, my friends, yeahIs that everything is just fine fine fineI've got one hand in my pocketAnd the other one is hailing a taxi cab...


I think I like it so much because it's all about contradictions. I feel my life is usually like this, like I'm always torn between two totally different ways, but I always come out okay...
