Incomplete by Alanis Morissette

One day, I'll find relief
I'll be arrived and I'll be a friend to my friends
Who know how to be friends

One day, I'll be at peace
I?ll be enlightened and I'll be married
With children and maybe adopt

One day, I will be healed
I will gather my wounds
Forge the end of tragic comedy

I have been running so sweaty my whole life
Urgent for a finish line
And I have been missing the rapture this whole time
Of being forever incomplete

One day, my mind will retreat
And I'll know God
And I'll be constantly one with her
Night, dusk and day

One day, I'll be secure
Like the women I see
On their thirtieth anniversaries

I have been running so sweaty my whole life
Urgent for a finish line
And I have been missing the rapture this whole time
Of being forever incomplete

Ever unfolding, ever expanding
Ever adventurous and torturous
But never done

One day, I will speak freely
I'll be less afraid
And measured outside of my poems and lyrics and art

One day, I will be faith filled
I'll be trusting and spacious
Authentic and grounded and whole

I have been running so sweaty my whole life
Urgent for a finish line
And I have been missing the rapture this whole time
Of being forever incomplete
