Music Monday: Alanis Morrissette.

Here's another song that's on my "soundtrack" for RENEGADE.  It's Evie's song. Because everything she knows about herself is a lie, and while she pretends she doesn't know, she's really just holding on to a precious illusion.

The biggest reason I picked this song is the chorus.  The lines are:

But this won't work now the way it once did
And I won't keep it up even though I would love to
Once I know who I'm not then I'll know who I am
But I know I won't keep on playing the victim

These precious illusions in my head did not let me down
When I was defenseless
And parting with them is like parting with invisible best friends
