Win and Win Lyrics

In my old days someone won
Those were days of win-lose
In those bleak times I was better
I sat high, looking down my nose

Changed direction: looking up
I'm not worthy to be with you
We are separate, I'm inferior
I had yearnings to sit across from you

'Cause we're eye to eye
We are win and win
We are equal to each other
We are flames of twin
We are offspring of truth
We are partners sister brother

Both directions speak a lie
Up or down, I can't feel you
As we battle with our power
We are separate, not looking across

'Cause we're eye to eye
We are win and win
We are equal to each other
We are flames of twin
We are offspring of truth
We are partners sister brother

These delusions of our grandeur
We are locked in the struggle
These lies of status lower
These conclusions we’re in trouble

'Cause we're eye to eye
We are win and win
We are equal to each other
We are flames of twin
We are offspring of truth
We are partners sister brother

....same value......same value.....

"Win and Win" is about personal and business conflicts, It's when you discover that the future has to be all or nothing.

Song Meaning
Cover art for Win and Win lyrics by Alanis Morissette

For me it is about being connected to people in your relationships in general. We normally go through our lives competing with everyone else, wanting other people to lose so we can win; we tend to see this [un?]balance - right/wrong.....win/lose - and we use them to relate to people. However, when you have this sense of connectedness you don't want other people to lose, for it means you lose too. You understand that we all win, together, 'cause we're connected.
