an absolute void in audio is extremely distressing

In her song All I Really Want, there’s a measure of complete silence after the lyrics “Why are you so petrified of silence? Here, can you handle this?”

Oh. I'm dumb, I was making a joke because I thought they were implying that listening to her was a bad time but it turns out it really was a quote. I got wooooshed this time.

Edited to add: I mean no offense to fans of Alanis Morissette, to be clear. I don't think I'm super familiar with her discography.
