Watch you smile through crooked teeth. Make your stand on broken feet. You can't hit what you cant see. What was once again will be. . CHORUS. Get my ride on.
(Slash/Matt Sorum/Eric Dover). . Skinny kid flippin' out. A prissy little thing with a tan. Was an outcast in the basement. Tryin' anything he can. The skirts spit words like razor blades.

And it stretches out again. And it seems I didn't win. I think I'll rest a while. So nice here on the tiles. . The lights come washing in. [Incomprehensible].
(Slash/Matt Sorum/Eric Dover). . Lower than the bottom. Swallowed by the ride. Floating in the bathtub. Children play outside. . So tell me hw to do it.
Spoken like a souvenir. Touch of all your childhood fears. Keep them at a gentle pace. Close enough to feel their hate. . Somebody says, somebody says.
