Alice in Chains Grind
In the darkest hole You'd be well advised Not to plan my funeral before the Body dies Come the morning light It's a see-through show What you may have heard and What you think you know Let the sun never blind your eyes Let me sleep so my teeth won't grind Hear a sound from a voice inside Sure to play a part So you love the game And in truth your lies Become one and same I could set you free Rather hear the sound Of your body breaking As I take you down Let the sun never blind your eyes Let me sleep so my teeth won't grind Hear a sound from a voice inside In the darkest hole You'd be well advised Not to plan my funeral before the Body dies Let the sun never blind your eyes Let me sleep so my teeth won't grind Hear a sound from a voice inside Brush Away
I could use some Time to curl away My aggression Is where you stake Your claim Why I question This curve on which you grade My conception A joke? Or latest craze? I try to get away And yet I stick around So fall and crawl away And brush away loose ground My intention Can I arrive at eight Lie and dream some Surprise you guys I'm late All right, correction, forgetting something Wait Brush away loose ground Brush away loose ground Sludge Factory
You insult me in my home You're forgiven this time Things go well, your eyes dilate You shake, and I'm high? Look in my eyes deep and watch The clouds change with time 20 hours won't print My picture milk carton size Carton size Carton size Call me up congratulations Ain't the real why There's no pressure besides brilliance Let's say by day 9 Endless corporate ignorance lets Me control time By the way, by the way, by the way, by the way Once again you see an in Discolored skin gives you away So afraid you kindly gurgle out a date For me Now the body of one soul I adore wants to die You have always told me you'd Not live past 25 I say stay long enough to repay All who caused strife Once again you see an in Discolored skin gives you away So afraid you kindly gurgle out a date For me Heaven Beside You

A word so wrongfully abused Are you like me, confused All included but you Alone... The sounds of silence often soothe Shapes and colors shift with mood Pupils widen and change their hue Rapid brown avoid clear blue Why's it have to be this way Be this way Flowers watched through wide brown eyes A child sings an unclaimed tune Innocence spins cold cocoon Grow to see the pain too soon Over Now Yeah, it's over now But I can breathe somehow When it's all worn out I'd rather go without You know it's been on my mind Could you stand right here Look me straight in the eye and say That it's over now We pay our debt sometime Well it's over now Yet I can see somehow When it's all gone wrong It's hard to be so strong We pay our debt sometime Guess it's over now I seem alive somehow When it's out of sight Just wait and do your time You know it's been on my mind Could I stand right here Look myself in the eye, and say That it's over now We pay our debt sometime |
