This is about peoples co-dependance and addictions to people or substances to kill the sadness that they have within. You see it's too much to ask for and I am not the doctor" Well I already know that you'd find some way to sneak me inĪnd oh mind the empty bottle with the holes along the bottom "Visitin' hours are nine to five and if I show up at ten past six I had to get rid of her for she was dependent on my for validation! Yeah, breathing room. Show me the back door! or lend me some fresh air. "with they fractured hearts and it's wounded beat?" People seriously think others have the power to break our own hearts! Honestly we break our own hearts with our attachment to a belief system! Seriously, "I didn't carry her in my womb for 9 mnts so why come to me. Yet, I don't want people to follow me, I want them to follow themselves! My friend accused me of breaking her heart. Why do people come to me? I'm an upbeat, confident person and I live my life like a leader rather than a follower. I'm not their doctor! That feels suffocating. Those friends of her's have to be strong and ask for their own help. One friend wrote me 6 emails and left me 5 voicemails in one week, because she wanted me to help a friend of hers. I didn't carry you in my womb for nine months I don't wanna be adored for what I merely represent to youĪn' I don't wanna be your babysitter, you're a very big boy now I don't want to be a bandage if the wound is not mine I don't wanna be your glass of single malt whiskey "I don't wanna be the filler if the void is solely yours He tells me how much he adores me but he is in love with what I represent to him. He has wounds from childhood from a very abusive father and he thinks being with me can take it away.

(I'll marry him if he learns how to be happy on his own as I am not a bandaid to his pain)! He drinks to kill his pain, don't most people that hang out in bars? Yes they really do. He thinks that marrying me will make him happy. He wants me to fill the emptiness that he feels inside. I have an ex who texts me 20 years later and is not at all responsible for their emotional state. People have all this pain in their lives and then reach for a strong person, or a close person to save them! I can't stand it when people come at me having their huge emotional gaping holes and need me to fill them. People can be a bottomless pit of pain and needy, they keep trying to fill a void with alcohols food or even victim stories but their hole is way too deep to fill. "mind the empty bottle with the holes along the bottom" I feel like I am singing this to my past relationships and the friends I let go. Please let me explain in my view point, it feels like I could have written this song, yes I wish. I don't think she is being mysterious at all. Paul, Hi!! I joined this site just so I could reply to you!! even if this post is a year old, this is one of my favorite songs that resonates so much with me. Here's the whole song if it helps any (which it probably won't):ĭoes it mean anything, or is Alanis just being deliberately mysterious here? Thanks for any help in advance.) (What would an empty bottle with holes on the bottom be or be used for in this context? Is it some kind of drug reference?
