Times Of Trouble Lyrics - Temple Of The Dog - Temple Of The Dog

When the spoon is hot 

And the needle's shot 

And you drift away 

I can hear you say 

That the world in black 

Is upon your back 

And your body shakes 

So you ditch away 

And you close the shades 

Don't try to do it 

Don't try to kill your time 

Yeah, you might do it 

Then you can't change your mind

You've got a hold on to your time 

Till your break through these times of trouble 

When you try to talk 

And the words get hard 

And they put you down 

Don't you stay 

Don't you ditch away 

I saw you swinging 

Yeah, swinging your mother's sword 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know you're playing but 

Sometimes the rules get hard 

But if somebody left you out on a ledge 

If somebody pushed you over the edge 

You got to hold on to your time till you break 

Through these times of trouble

I saw you swinging 

Yeah, swinging your mother's sword 

And yeah, yeah, yeah, I know you're playing but 

Sometimes the rules get hard 

But if somebody left you out on a ledge 

If somebody pushed you over the edge 

If somebody loved you and left you for dead 

You got to hold on to your time till you break 

Through these times of trouble
