[Verse 1]
These are the reasons I drink
The reasons I tell everybody I'm fine even though I am not
These are the reasons I overdo it
I have been working since I can remember

[Chorus]
These are the reasons I drink
These are the reasons I drink
These are the reasons I drink
These are the reasons I drink

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And nothing can give reprieve like they do
Nothing can give a break for this soldier like they do

[Chorus]
These are the reasons
These are the reasons
These are the reasons I drink
These are the reasons I drink

[Verse 1]
These are the reasons I drink
The reasons I tell everybody I'm fine even though I am not
The reasons I tell everybody I'm fine even though I am
The reasons I tell everybody I'm fine even though I am
The reasons I tell everybody I'm fine even though I am not

Alanis Nadine Morissette was born on June 1, 1974, in Ottawa, Canada. At age 6, she began taking piano lessons, and by the time she was 9, she was writing her own songs.

When she was 11, Morissette joined the cast of a Nickelodeon children’s show called You Can’t Do That on Television, and saved up her earnings. In 1987, she used them to self-release her first track, “Fate Stay With Me.” The song caught the attention of record label MCA Canada; at age 14, Morissette signed a contract with the company. She released a self-titled album, Alanis, in 1991, which went platinum. Quickly following up the success of her first album, Morissette released Now Is The Time a year later, though it did not reach the same level of popularity.

In 1994 Morissette moved to Los Angeles teamed up with industry veteran Glen Ballard, and she began to approach songwriting more organically.
