Alanis Morissette – Uninvited Lyrics 12 years ago
TheGuid, I have seen the movie, understand the plot well. I also know that, not unlike many songs written for movie scores, the meaning of the lyrics do not apply to the plot of the movie. This is what they call "artistic license." Many phrases in this song do not match the plot of the movie in any way at all. It just means the song left one with the same feeling of blameless loss as the movie so the director thought it would make a good match. He was right. The song however was probably something alanis Morisette put together not thinking of the movie but the way it made her feel.

Just a thought.

Alanis Morissette – Uninvited Lyrics 12 years ago
From what I see in this song this is a woman trying to tease her love interest into higher desire.
She is telling him/her that she is flattered but only wanted an object to crave. In other words saw him/her as nothing but a casual encounter.
Now she goes on to say that he/she is uninvited to be with her but that this is an unfortunate slight.
In other words she doesn't really want to put him/her off but she is letting him/her go to see if they will come back with even more passion.
Notice, the music increases in passion after this is said.
Now she tells him/her it must be strangely exciting to see the stoic squirm. Here she is referring to herself trying not to show interest but tearing herself up inside.
Here is the interesting part where she refers to Shepard meet Shepard - two people that lead the flock.
This is an alpha meets alpha situation. The union will be really hot when it happens. The music gets more passionate as the sexual tension between the two increases.
She pushes him her away yet again by saying he/she is not allowed/invited an unfortunate slight. She is killing herself by doing this but knows the end result will be the craving she desires.
Now the words to the next phrase speak for themselves. When she is showing uncharted territory - using herself as strong bait but still holding him off for even more passion. The music starts to go crazy as I can imagine the sexual tension gets to the point where it is impossible to bear.
Then the music goes almost silent as if she is finally released. she tells him/her that she doesn't think him/her unworthy giving him hope but then she takes it away again when she says "I need a moment to deliberate."
The music goes nuts as the passion must as well and then the song completes leaving it open ended and up to your imagination.
