So much blood I'm starting to drown. Runs from cold to colder. Time to time the sky's come down. To help me lose my way. . Tears and lies for answers.
Lifeless dead, that unclean bed, till or when her hunger's fed. How he'd wished that they would wed I promise on our love she said. Promises were never kept alone on dirty floor he slept.
For clear space and soundness of mind. I've let you play me for some time. One can only receive and retain. But the lies you recite for your gain. . So you rely on my faith in your kind.
Well. I don't wanna be a soldier, mama. I don't wanna die. . Well. I don't wanna be a sailor, mama. I don't wanna fly. . Well. I don't wanna be a failure, mama.
I don't know anything. I don't know anything. I don't know anything. I don't know who I am. . I don't know anything. I don't know anything. I don't know anything.
Artificial red, smoke, poison consumed. In the house of ill repute. Is this the way I spend my days. In recovery of a fatal disease?. . Ooh, ooh. Ooh, ooh.
Lyrics by Layne Staley. Music by Staley, McCready, Martin, Saunders. . All alone. We're all alone.... We're all alone....
Through stains from the rest of sorrows. Destiny my before in the price of lust. Strength for the ocean floor. This is difference the chasing your right.
On an island out in the sea. I wouldn't care what they think of me. But in this crowded room I believe. That I'm seconds from insanity. . 'Cause her eyes just rip me all apart.
Phone cutting in and out, this God Damn reception again I missed,. Two calls and when we talk you asked me why you're in an ambulance.. I dropped my phone as I go numb, til I saw your face..
If I lost it all in a fireball, would you be there for me?. If the money's gone and the future falls, will you walk away?. 'Cause my confidence is vanishing, will you leave me starving here?.
On the Chicago River after dark. We watch the city lights tear the sky apart. The wind was blowing her hair around. As the scenery explodes, I'll tell you how.
My darkest hours in the sickness.. For all rip of my darkest hours.. The light in the sickness. This is the blind of collapse.. Take everything in the distance of memories.
[Verse:]. Never fade from the destiny. From sets in the enemies. Another last in the colder of decorations. Keeping me closure in the killing me inside.
You're a wolf, you are dressed like a fox. Got me tied up in knots over you. But I think that I'm just a flavor. You crave on instinct. . 'Cause you don't feel ashamed.
We walk past a dead end street. Atop the hill so we can be alone. Under the moon, it's beautiful. The stars clear the black of night when I'm with you.
They say the darkest hour's just before the dawn. Well, I've been up all night just desperate for the sun. 'Cause I've got a voice or two that can't seem to forget you.
I'll take your crystal ball and make this crystal clear. That I won't stay back and I won't drown right here. I'll never wait, I'll make a million mistakes.
The way you dance, it turns me on but you know that I'm spoken for. The way the sweat drips off your chest, you know that I'm wanting more. The lies, the sex, the heat, this sweat and nothing else matters.
She looked at me, her eyes were watering. That's when I knew that this was about to end. Frozen in that moment, time was standing still. And I could feel my heart sinking [Incomprehensible].
