Nearly Forgot My Broken Heart lyrics - Chris Cornell
Every time I stare into the sun
Trying to find a reason to go on
All I ever get is burned and blind,
Until the sky bleeds the pouring rain
When you came along the time was right
Pulled me like an apple red and ripe
Wasn't very long you took a bite
And did me wrong, and it serves me right
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
It's taking me miles away,
From the memory of how we broke apart
Here we go round again, again
Every little key unlocks the door,
Every little secret has a lie
Trying to take a picture of the sun
It won't help you to see the light
Every little word upon your lips
Makes a little cut where blood pours out
Every little drop of blood a kiss that I won't miss
Not for anything
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
It's taking me miles away,
From the memory of how we broke apart
Here we go round again
Every single feeling tells me this is leading to a heart
In broken little pieces and you know I need this
Like a hole in the head
Every single feeling tells me this is leading to a heart
In broken little pieces and you know I need this
Like a hole in the head
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
It's taking me miles away,
From the memory of how we broke apart
Here we go round again
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
It's taking me miles away,
From the memory of how we broke apart
Here we go round again...
Trying to find a reason to go on
All I ever get is burned and blind,
Until the sky bleeds the pouring rain
When you came along the time was right
Pulled me like an apple red and ripe
Wasn't very long you took a bite
And did me wrong, and it serves me right
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
It's taking me miles away,
From the memory of how we broke apart
Here we go round again, again
Every little key unlocks the door,
Every little secret has a lie
Trying to take a picture of the sun
It won't help you to see the light
Every little word upon your lips
Makes a little cut where blood pours out
Every little drop of blood a kiss that I won't miss
Not for anything
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
It's taking me miles away,
From the memory of how we broke apart
Here we go round again
Every single feeling tells me this is leading to a heart
In broken little pieces and you know I need this
Like a hole in the head
Every single feeling tells me this is leading to a heart
In broken little pieces and you know I need this
Like a hole in the head
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
It's taking me miles away,
From the memory of how we broke apart
Here we go round again
And I nearly forgot my broken heart
It's taking me miles away,
From the memory of how we broke apart
Here we go round again...
Dead Wishes lyrics - Chris Cornell
Staring in the mirror with two borrowed eyes
Looking for the part of me that's still alive
Waiting for my chest to fall... and rise
Standing on the corner With my shirt tucked in
Summer turns to autumn winter turns to spring
And it all flies by... like a speeding train
Dead wishes on a broken chain
White roses in a dead man's dream
Down and out with everything to lose
If these long dead wishes
Ever do come true
Waiting for the night to come and chase away
All the flies hovering around my head
With my memory for a pillow
And all my regrets for a bed
Standing on the corner now I'm passed surprise
Yelling out a warning to some passer by
I stand just as God made me
And I lie down in disguise
Dead wishes on a burning lake
White roses from my soul to keep
Down and out with everything to win
If my long since sunken ship
Ever does come in
(Round and round we all fall down
And that's how ancient mountains crumble)
Time keeps moving slower
Like falling from the sun
Come and knock me over
I keep getting up
Throw a line down to me
Keep hanging on
Standing on the corner don't apologize
You don't have to bow your head or raise your eyes
Or pretend that you don't see me
Dead wishes on a broken chain
White roses in a dead man's dream
Down and out with everything to lose
If these long dead wishes
Ever do come true
(Round and round we all fall down
And that's how ancient mountains crumble)
Looking for the part of me that's still alive
Waiting for my chest to fall... and rise
Standing on the corner With my shirt tucked in
Summer turns to autumn winter turns to spring
And it all flies by... like a speeding train
Dead wishes on a broken chain
White roses in a dead man's dream
Down and out with everything to lose
If these long dead wishes
Ever do come true
Waiting for the night to come and chase away
All the flies hovering around my head
With my memory for a pillow
And all my regrets for a bed
Standing on the corner now I'm passed surprise
Yelling out a warning to some passer by
I stand just as God made me
And I lie down in disguise
Dead wishes on a burning lake
White roses from my soul to keep
Down and out with everything to win
If my long since sunken ship
Ever does come in
(Round and round we all fall down
And that's how ancient mountains crumble)
Time keeps moving slower
Like falling from the sun
Come and knock me over
I keep getting up
Throw a line down to me
Keep hanging on
Standing on the corner don't apologize
You don't have to bow your head or raise your eyes
Or pretend that you don't see me
Dead wishes on a broken chain
White roses in a dead man's dream
Down and out with everything to lose
If these long dead wishes
Ever do come true
(Round and round we all fall down
And that's how ancient mountains crumble)
Worried Moon lyrics - Chris Cornell
Worried moon shining bright
Can I sleep here tonight right beside you?
I got a long way to go
I'll be off in the morning
And I hope but I don't know
If she will have me back again
Or only want me for a friend
And leave a stain across my heart
That never washes out
Nervous moon
In the clouds
There's a halo around your proud face
And I'm glad that we're friends
I might see you again
Sooner or later, I guess
Yeah if it all goes wrong
And I'm a heart without a home
Maybe you can talk me out
Of doing myself in
Worried moon
I'm afraid of what's to come
Worried moon
Yeah, tell me what you know
Worried moon
You see further down the road
Worried moon
There you are, looking down
I'll be here on the ground if you need me
As I dream of a ghost
Of a love that has died
Or maybe not but it haunts me now
Worried moon
I'm afraid of what's to come
Worried moon
Yeah, tell me what you know
Worried moon
You see further down the road
Worried moon
Looking up, you are gone
I got into the city at midnight
All these eyes looking on
Make me blind or put me down
And the noise just drowns me out
Worried moon
I'm afraid of what's to come
Worried moon
Yeah, tell me what you know
Worried moon
You see further down the road
Worried moon
Dirty moon on the rise
Orange as fire but a bitter cold
You'll remember me I know
'Cause I have moved to another coast
With a new love to call my own
Maybe one day you can bathe us
In your blue light
Worried moon
Worried moon
Can I sleep here tonight right beside you?
I got a long way to go
I'll be off in the morning
And I hope but I don't know
If she will have me back again
Or only want me for a friend
And leave a stain across my heart
That never washes out
Nervous moon
In the clouds
There's a halo around your proud face
And I'm glad that we're friends
I might see you again
Sooner or later, I guess
Yeah if it all goes wrong
And I'm a heart without a home
Maybe you can talk me out
Of doing myself in
Worried moon
I'm afraid of what's to come
Worried moon
Yeah, tell me what you know
Worried moon
You see further down the road
Worried moon
There you are, looking down
I'll be here on the ground if you need me
As I dream of a ghost
Of a love that has died
Or maybe not but it haunts me now
Worried moon
I'm afraid of what's to come
Worried moon
Yeah, tell me what you know
Worried moon
You see further down the road
Worried moon
Looking up, you are gone
I got into the city at midnight
All these eyes looking on
Make me blind or put me down
And the noise just drowns me out
Worried moon
I'm afraid of what's to come
Worried moon
Yeah, tell me what you know
Worried moon
You see further down the road
Worried moon
Dirty moon on the rise
Orange as fire but a bitter cold
You'll remember me I know
'Cause I have moved to another coast
With a new love to call my own
Maybe one day you can bathe us
In your blue light
Worried moon
Worried moon
Before We Disappear lyrics - Chris Cornell
Time ain't nothing if it ain't fast
Taking everything that you ever had
And giving nothing in return
But a cold bed in a quiet earth
If there's a door to every cell
A pearl inside of every shell then
How hard can it be
To share your love with me?
How hard can it be
To rise with me each morning?
I know that it feels like
We will live forever
But I fear
That time will hide the years
Life ain't nothing if it ain't hard
It'll show you who you truly are
Knock you down when you get too tall
Till you're spun around in a free fall
But somewhere out there past the storm
Lies the shelter of your heart
So how hard can it be
To share your love with me?
How hard can it be
To rise with me each morning?
I know that it feels like
We will live for ever
But I fear
That time can hide the years
So hold on tightly my dear
I'm not one to waste my time
Searching for some silver lining
But somewhere out there past the storm
Lies the shelter
Of your heart
So how hard can it be (how hard)
To share your love with me?
How hard can it be
To rise with me each morning?
I know that it feels like
We will live forever
But I fear
That time can hide the years
Like we were never here
So hold on tightly my dear
Before we disappear
Before we disappear
Taking everything that you ever had
And giving nothing in return
But a cold bed in a quiet earth
If there's a door to every cell
A pearl inside of every shell then
How hard can it be
To share your love with me?
How hard can it be
To rise with me each morning?
I know that it feels like
We will live forever
But I fear
That time will hide the years
Life ain't nothing if it ain't hard
It'll show you who you truly are
Knock you down when you get too tall
Till you're spun around in a free fall
But somewhere out there past the storm
Lies the shelter of your heart
So how hard can it be
To share your love with me?
How hard can it be
To rise with me each morning?
I know that it feels like
We will live for ever
But I fear
That time can hide the years
So hold on tightly my dear
I'm not one to waste my time
Searching for some silver lining
But somewhere out there past the storm
Lies the shelter
Of your heart
So how hard can it be (how hard)
To share your love with me?
How hard can it be
To rise with me each morning?
I know that it feels like
We will live forever
But I fear
That time can hide the years
Like we were never here
So hold on tightly my dear
Before we disappear
Before we disappear
Through The Window lyrics - Chris Cornell
The clouds that gathered turned to rain
The candles on your sill burned out
The weather on your face
Turned to match the mood outside
Reading through poems that you saved
That make the gloomy hours make sense
Or do they lose their power
With the yellowing of age
I saw you suffering
Through a foggy window in the rain
When you thought no one was watching, yeah
Going through your memories
Like so many prisons to escape
And become someone else
With another face
And another name
No more suffering
You sold the best of yourself out
On a chain of grey and white lies
One syllable at a time
You should have made them pay
A higher price
I saw you suffering
Through the cracked and dirty window pane
I was ashamed that I was watching, yeah
Going through your imagination
Looking for a life you could create
And become somebody else, yeah
With another face
With another name
No more suffering
I wish that I could find a seed
And plant a tree that grows so high
So that I could climb
And harvest the ripe stars
For you and I to drink
And spit the ashes from our mouths
And put the grey back in the clouds
And send them packing with our bags
Of old regrets and sorrows
'Cause they don't do a thing but drag us down
So far down
The past is like a braided rope
Each moment tightly coiled inside
I saw you suffering
Through the yellow window of a train
With everybody watching, yeah
Too tired for imagining
That you could ever love somebody else
From somewhere far away
From another time
And another place
With another life
And another face
And another name
And another name
No more suffering.
The candles on your sill burned out
The weather on your face
Turned to match the mood outside
Reading through poems that you saved
That make the gloomy hours make sense
Or do they lose their power
With the yellowing of age
I saw you suffering
Through a foggy window in the rain
When you thought no one was watching, yeah
Going through your memories
Like so many prisons to escape
And become someone else
With another face
And another name
No more suffering
You sold the best of yourself out
On a chain of grey and white lies
One syllable at a time
You should have made them pay
A higher price
I saw you suffering
Through the cracked and dirty window pane
I was ashamed that I was watching, yeah
Going through your imagination
Looking for a life you could create
And become somebody else, yeah
With another face
With another name
No more suffering
I wish that I could find a seed
And plant a tree that grows so high
So that I could climb
And harvest the ripe stars
For you and I to drink
And spit the ashes from our mouths
And put the grey back in the clouds
And send them packing with our bags
Of old regrets and sorrows
'Cause they don't do a thing but drag us down
So far down
The past is like a braided rope
Each moment tightly coiled inside
I saw you suffering
Through the yellow window of a train
With everybody watching, yeah
Too tired for imagining
That you could ever love somebody else
From somewhere far away
From another time
And another place
With another life
And another face
And another name
And another name
No more suffering.
Josephine lyrics - Chris Cornell
Josephine where can you be now?
Again the sun is rising on my troubled heart
Don’t deny you know you and I
Are the making of what fate
Just can’t pull apart
My sweet Josephine
Won’t you come and marry me?
I got every kind of love that you would ever need
Dying here on bended knees
Sheets of rain
Cold and gray
Run down the page
Just about your name
With just the weight of your silent smile
Crashing all around me while i screamed it out loud
My sweet Josephine
Won’t you come and marry me?
I got every kind of love that you would ever need
Dying here on bended knees
Like a raven in a cage
Blood on my birth
Just won’t wash away
Like a stitched together doll
My feet to the flame
As I follow the blame
For someone else’s pain
For someone else’s pain
Rivers of black ink flood
A tapestry of flesh and blood around my frame
A living shrine just for you of human mind
Golden pen upon your hand
Leave this endless winter behind
My sweet josephine
Won’t you come and marry me?
I got every single kind of love that you would ever need
Dying here on bended knees
Dying here on bended knees
Dying here on bended knees
My Josephine
Again the sun is rising on my troubled heart
Don’t deny you know you and I
Are the making of what fate
Just can’t pull apart
My sweet Josephine
Won’t you come and marry me?
I got every kind of love that you would ever need
Dying here on bended knees
Sheets of rain
Cold and gray
Run down the page
Just about your name
With just the weight of your silent smile
Crashing all around me while i screamed it out loud
My sweet Josephine
Won’t you come and marry me?
I got every kind of love that you would ever need
Dying here on bended knees
Like a raven in a cage
Blood on my birth
Just won’t wash away
Like a stitched together doll
My feet to the flame
As I follow the blame
For someone else’s pain
For someone else’s pain
Rivers of black ink flood
A tapestry of flesh and blood around my frame
A living shrine just for you of human mind
Golden pen upon your hand
Leave this endless winter behind
My sweet josephine
Won’t you come and marry me?
I got every single kind of love that you would ever need
Dying here on bended knees
Dying here on bended knees
Dying here on bended knees
My Josephine
Murder Of Blue Skies lyrics - Chris Cornell
You flew in on the wind
Was a day that I won't forget
Told me to let you in
And that I would not regret it
But you had a touch as cool as rain
And only once the weather changed
Murderer of blue skies
I can't wait
To never be with you again
And I can't wait
To lead a life that you're not in
And I won't break
Though I may bend
From time to time
I can't wait to never be with you again
Now, the truth will set you free
But all you had was lying in you
So you built a cage for me
All the while pretending to be
A living saint with a thorny crown
And me condemned to be your clown
I applaud you as you take a bow
I can't wait
To never be with you again
And I can't wait
To lead a life that you're not in
And I won't break
Though I may bend
From time to time
I can't wait to never be with you
Always thought that I pride myself on patience
But it's wearing thin
Never thought that falling for you only meant
Falling down
I can't wait
To never be with you again
And I can't wait
To lead a life that you're not in
And I won't break
Though I may bend
I can't wait
To never be with you again
And I can't wait
To lead a life that you're not in
And I won't break
Though I may bend
From time to time
I can't wait to never be with you again
I can't wait to never be with you again
Was a day that I won't forget
Told me to let you in
And that I would not regret it
But you had a touch as cool as rain
And only once the weather changed
Murderer of blue skies
I can't wait
To never be with you again
And I can't wait
To lead a life that you're not in
And I won't break
Though I may bend
From time to time
I can't wait to never be with you again
Now, the truth will set you free
But all you had was lying in you
So you built a cage for me
All the while pretending to be
A living saint with a thorny crown
And me condemned to be your clown
I applaud you as you take a bow
I can't wait
To never be with you again
And I can't wait
To lead a life that you're not in
And I won't break
Though I may bend
From time to time
I can't wait to never be with you
Always thought that I pride myself on patience
But it's wearing thin
Never thought that falling for you only meant
Falling down
I can't wait
To never be with you again
And I can't wait
To lead a life that you're not in
And I won't break
Though I may bend
I can't wait
To never be with you again
And I can't wait
To lead a life that you're not in
And I won't break
Though I may bend
From time to time
I can't wait to never be with you again
I can't wait to never be with you again
Higher Truth lyrics - Chris Cornell
You can make somebody cry
Go on
Do what you like
I’ll be there by your side
I know
What the future holds
You can set the world on fire
Yeah if you want
It isn’t hard
I won’t be there looking on
To see the trail of lies
As you fall
But I’ll take the truth
The higher truth
The higher truth
I want the truth
The higher truth
The higher truth
You can fill the world with pain
Yeah if you want
I've seen it now
You can fill the world with hate
I’ve seen it done before
And I know how it all works out
Make a promise if you can
You know
You’ll only break it
Make a promise if you dare
Go on right ahead
And let’s see where it gets you
But I’ll take the truth
The higher truth
The higher truth
I want the truth
The higher truth
The higher truth
Maybe you and I one day
Will finally choose
A higher truth
Come let’s sit in the sun
Feel the world spin around
As the birds fly overhead
Can’t you hear the waves
Can’t you feel the rain
As it falls upon your face
I’ll take a truth
A higher truth
A higher truth
I want the truth
The higher truth
A higher truth
I’ll take a truth
A higher truth
A higher truth
I want the truth
The higher truth
A higher truth
Maybe you and I one day will finally choose
The higher truth
Can’t you feel the higher
Can’t you feel the higher
As it falls around?
Go on
Do what you like
I’ll be there by your side
I know
What the future holds
You can set the world on fire
Yeah if you want
It isn’t hard
I won’t be there looking on
To see the trail of lies
As you fall
But I’ll take the truth
The higher truth
The higher truth
I want the truth
The higher truth
The higher truth
You can fill the world with pain
Yeah if you want
I've seen it now
You can fill the world with hate
I’ve seen it done before
And I know how it all works out
Make a promise if you can
You know
You’ll only break it
Make a promise if you dare
Go on right ahead
And let’s see where it gets you
But I’ll take the truth
The higher truth
The higher truth
I want the truth
The higher truth
The higher truth
Maybe you and I one day

A higher truth
Come let’s sit in the sun
Feel the world spin around

The higher truth
A higher truth
I’ll take a truth
A higher truth
A higher truth
I want the truth
The higher truth
A higher truth
Maybe you and I one day will finally choose
The higher truth
Can’t you feel the higher
Can’t you feel the higher
As it falls around?
Let Your Eyes Wander lyrics - Chris Cornell
When you find love
And it gets away
If it comes back to you
Then it will stay
Well maybe it’s true
As dumb as it sounds
I ain’t gonna stop you
From looking around
So let your eyes wander
Wild and free
Sooner or later
You will look back
To me
Love can be sharp
Make no mistake
Flatter a good heart
Then watch it break
It'll cut you to the bone
Just to see you bleed out
But that doesn’t mean, no
I’m somebody else
So let your eyes wander
The moment you think
You see something better
Better than me
So let your eyes wander
Wander away
And I’ll look no further
You will come back one day
Followed every word that I have ever heard
And I still don’t know what to say
I always think I’m losing
When my lips are moving
Time to shut up anyway
Followed every line
That I remember trying
But they never worked in the end
No more need for talking
If you feel like walking
You’re gonna walk anyway
I know you can tell
The difference between
One lonely tear falling
And a season of rain
So let your eyes wander
Wander away
Your heart is young
And longing to stray
Let your eyes wander
Wild and free
Sooner or later
They will look back
They will look back
They will look back
To me
And it gets away
If it comes back to you
Then it will stay
Well maybe it’s true
As dumb as it sounds
I ain’t gonna stop you
From looking around
So let your eyes wander
Wild and free
Sooner or later
You will look back
To me
Love can be sharp
Make no mistake
Flatter a good heart
Then watch it break
It'll cut you to the bone
Just to see you bleed out
But that doesn’t mean, no
I’m somebody else
So let your eyes wander
The moment you think
You see something better
Better than me
So let your eyes wander
Wander away
And I’ll look no further
You will come back one day
Followed every word that I have ever heard
And I still don’t know what to say
I always think I’m losing
When my lips are moving
Time to shut up anyway
Followed every line
That I remember trying
But they never worked in the end
No more need for talking
If you feel like walking
You’re gonna walk anyway
I know you can tell
The difference between
One lonely tear falling
And a season of rain
So let your eyes wander
Wander away
Your heart is young
And longing to stray
Let your eyes wander
Wild and free
Sooner or later
They will look back
They will look back
They will look back
To me
Only These Words lyrics - Chris Cornell
In a castle
Down a long road
A little girl was born
To a king and
To a queen and
Her mother’s eyes welled up with tears of joy
Staring at the tiny face
Of a miracle she made
She would say I love you
She would say I love you
Summer came and went
Unrolling trees all stripped to the bone
Daddy’s little girl in his arms, well
They sit upon his throne
Who is that thief hiding in the dark
Just a little girl who stole his heart
He would say I love you
He would say I love you
He would say I love you
With only these three words repeating
A simple greeting but it’s all you keep
Clever lips can be misleading
A tongue can fly away
And won’t come back
But it’s only these words we recognize
6 o’clock A.M
The alarm rings out
Awoken from the dream
No more castle down a long road
No more kings and no more queens
But she’s a princess none the less
And a handsome prince is what she’ll get
He will say I love you
He will say I love you
He will say I love you
He will say I love you
He will say I love you
Down a long road
A little girl was born
To a king and
To a queen and
Her mother’s eyes welled up with tears of joy
Staring at the tiny face
Of a miracle she made
She would say I love you
She would say I love you
Summer came and went
Unrolling trees all stripped to the bone
Daddy’s little girl in his arms, well
They sit upon his throne
Who is that thief hiding in the dark
Just a little girl who stole his heart
He would say I love you
He would say I love you
He would say I love you
With only these three words repeating
A simple greeting but it’s all you keep
Clever lips can be misleading
A tongue can fly away
And won’t come back
But it’s only these words we recognize
6 o’clock A.M
The alarm rings out
Awoken from the dream
No more castle down a long road
No more kings and no more queens
But she’s a princess none the less
And a handsome prince is what she’ll get
He will say I love you
He will say I love you
He will say I love you
He will say I love you
He will say I love you
Circling lyrics - Chris Cornell
Night falls while drunken angels
Sleep by the side of the road
And I'm nodding in a stairwell
Just trying to stay out of the cold
Circling around the drain
Can't find my way back to home
The road is long
And never ends
Dark is the heart that wanders
Light breaks in through the window
Takes a minute to know where I am
A dying blackbird
Gives her soul to the wind
On the roof of the house
That I can see from the bed
Circling around the drain
Show me the way back home
The road is long
It never ends
Dark is the heart that wanders
I'd crawl a hundred thousand miles
Just to see your two eyes look me over
I'd steal you flowers in the bloodshot light
Of the lonely hours on a moonless night
Just like a stray dog in the rain
I can run all night and get nowhere
I picture you out underneath the porch light
Calling my name all night
And waiting for me
I thought I heard your voice in the water
As I walked by a fountain uptown
Now I'm an orphaned at the door of church
Just watching the water come down
Circling around the drain
Hope that I make it home
I never felt so far away
Dark is the heart
That wanders.
Sleep by the side of the road
And I'm nodding in a stairwell
Just trying to stay out of the cold
Circling around the drain
Can't find my way back to home
The road is long
And never ends
Dark is the heart that wanders
Light breaks in through the window
Takes a minute to know where I am
A dying blackbird
Gives her soul to the wind
On the roof of the house
That I can see from the bed
Circling around the drain
Show me the way back home
The road is long
It never ends
Dark is the heart that wanders
I'd crawl a hundred thousand miles
Just to see your two eyes look me over
I'd steal you flowers in the bloodshot light
Of the lonely hours on a moonless night
Just like a stray dog in the rain
I can run all night and get nowhere
I picture you out underneath the porch light
Calling my name all night
And waiting for me
I thought I heard your voice in the water
As I walked by a fountain uptown
Now I'm an orphaned at the door of church
Just watching the water come down
Circling around the drain
Hope that I make it home
I never felt so far away
Dark is the heart
That wanders.
Our Time In The Universe lyrics - Chris Cornell
Waiting
Upon the dunes of earth and sand
In the morning
The flame appears upon your hand
Swallow
The fears of empty promise hearts
And remember
We only just got to the stars
Save the dying arms of midnight
For the patience and or lapse of light
Cuz it’s our time in the universe
Well I don’t mind
If we're blessed or cursed
And it’s our time in the universe
Yours and mine
Breathing
Beneath miles of earth and sky
And in sunlight
I will appear before your eyes
So don’t worry
On what tomorrow holds for you
I’ll be waiting
At the end of every road you choose
Save the dying arms of midnight
Cuz it’s our time in the universe
Well I don’t mind
If we're blessed or cursed
Well it’s our time in the universe
Yours and mine
See you don’t fall
No matter the end
See it unfold no matter the need
See it fold up whatever happens to be
It’s what it will be
It’s what it will be
Cuz it’s our time in the universe
Well I don’t mind
If we're blessed or cursed
Yeah it’s our time in the universe
Yours and mine
Yours and mine
Upon the dunes of earth and sand
In the morning
The flame appears upon your hand
Swallow
The fears of empty promise hearts
And remember
We only just got to the stars
Save the dying arms of midnight
For the patience and or lapse of light
Cuz it’s our time in the universe
Well I don’t mind
If we're blessed or cursed
And it’s our time in the universe
Yours and mine
Breathing
Beneath miles of earth and sky
And in sunlight
I will appear before your eyes
So don’t worry
On what tomorrow holds for you
I’ll be waiting
At the end of every road you choose
Save the dying arms of midnight
Cuz it’s our time in the universe
Well I don’t mind
If we're blessed or cursed
Well it’s our time in the universe
Yours and mine
See you don’t fall
No matter the end
See it unfold no matter the need
See it fold up whatever happens to be
It’s what it will be
It’s what it will be
Cuz it’s our time in the universe
Well I don’t mind
If we're blessed or cursed
Yeah it’s our time in the universe
Yours and mine
Yours and mine
Bend In The Road lyrics - Chris Cornell
In a bend in the road
I’m too lost and tired
To see where I’m going
What I left behind
And I’m moving
So slow
Don’t know when I’ll arrive
So put a bend in the road
I’m growing tired
Of straight lines
I set off for the shore
And I finally slipped away
From the ones i adored
And the place i was raised
And I rode down the road
Just to watch it go by
And when and where is love?
Maybe nowhere tonight
Everyone needs a touch
Or a shoulder for crying
The say love is a crutch
I say love is blind
And that’s all that she needed
But I could not supply
When a bend in the road
Put it out of my mind
There was a strange little girl
Who was everything I ever dreamed
I could love or be loved by
So put a bridge
Or a hill
Or a forest of pines
Or a river of blue
I can run along side
I’ll sleep when it’s night
I follow all the signs
Just put a bend in the road
I’m growing tired of straight lines
Put a bend in the road
I’m growing tired of straight lines
I’m too lost and tired
To see where I’m going
What I left behind
And I’m moving
So slow
Don’t know when I’ll arrive
So put a bend in the road
I’m growing tired
Of straight lines
I set off for the shore
And I finally slipped away
From the ones i adored
And the place i was raised
And I rode down the road
Just to watch it go by
And when and where is love?
Maybe nowhere tonight
Everyone needs a touch
Or a shoulder for crying
The say love is a crutch
I say love is blind
And that’s all that she needed
But I could not supply
When a bend in the road
Put it out of my mind
There was a strange little girl
Who was everything I ever dreamed
I could love or be loved by
So put a bridge
Or a hill
Or a forest of pines
Or a river of blue
I can run along side
I’ll sleep when it’s night
I follow all the signs
Just put a bend in the road
I’m growing tired of straight lines
Put a bend in the road
I’m growing tired of straight lines
Wrong Side lyrics - Chris Cornell
When I was just a boy of ten
My father met a miner’s death
Trapped inside through twenty nights
No one made it out alive
So there I was alone but free
The master of my destiny
And trouble found me right away
My close companions since that day
And I’m on the side of the road again
I’m on the wrong side my friend
Whichever way the wind is blowing
No matter where the river bends
I'm on the side of wrong again
At 21 I fell in love
To a girl of 16 years
But a jealous father ran me down
Left me in the road for dead
So I decided there and then
I’d find the car, I’d take revenge
But the fire caught the house and fields
I haven’t slept a whole night since
And I’m on the side of wrong again
I’m on the wrong side my friend
Whichever way the wind is blowing
No matter where the river bends
I’m on the side alone again
I’m on the side of wrong again
I ran three years and finally stopped
Cut my hair and found a job
Working in a road café
Sleeping in the parking lot
Late one night the store was robbed
The owner dead his boy was shot
And I’m the only one he sold
Now I’m waiting for the trap door to drop
And I’m on the side of the road again
I’m on the wrong side my friend
Whichever way the wind is blowing
No matter where the river bends
I’m on the side alone again
I’m on the side of wrong again
I’m on the side of wrong again
My father met a miner’s death
Trapped inside through twenty nights
No one made it out alive
So there I was alone but free
The master of my destiny
And trouble found me right away
My close companions since that day
And I’m on the side of the road again
I’m on the wrong side my friend
Whichever way the wind is blowing
No matter where the river bends
I'm on the side of wrong again
At 21 I fell in love
To a girl of 16 years
But a jealous father ran me down
Left me in the road for dead
So I decided there and then
I’d find the car, I’d take revenge
But the fire caught the house and fields
I haven’t slept a whole night since
And I’m on the side of wrong again
I’m on the wrong side my friend
Whichever way the wind is blowing
No matter where the river bends
I’m on the side alone again
I’m on the side of wrong again
I ran three years and finally stopped
Cut my hair and found a job
Working in a road café
Sleeping in the parking lot
Late one night the store was robbed
The owner dead his boy was shot
And I’m the only one he sold
Now I’m waiting for the trap door to drop
And I’m on the side of the road again
I’m on the wrong side my friend
Whichever way the wind is blowing
No matter where the river bends
I’m on the side alone again
I’m on the side of wrong again
I’m on the side of wrong again
Misery Chain lyrics - Chris Cornell (feat. Joy Williams)
Won't you take one link, from this misery chain.
Keep it to remind you, of a long forgotten time or a place.
So that you recognize its shape, when it's near.
Any time or place this misery chain should appear.
Take the locks and shackles, and melt all of it down.
Shine a light upon, every shadow, every acre of ground.
The hidden corners on in all around
Anyway you feel this misery chain should be found.
When we're gone, and it's all said and done.
What will we leave.
Stories told, will they speak of us when God only knows
That those word will be.
And if I should fall, from the top of the world
To the depths below, so far below where our believe could exist.
Down further still will be, the one who hides the key.
And there's to try to put these misery chains on me.
When we're gone, and it's all said and done.
What will we leave.
Stories told, will they speak of us when God only knows
That those word will be.
Won't you take one link, from this misery chain.
Keep it to remind you, of a long forgotten time or a place.
So that you recognize it, 'till it's understood.
And that every trace of this misery chain is gone for good.
'til every trace of this misery chain is gone for good.
Keep it to remind you, of a long forgotten time or a place.
So that you recognize its shape, when it's near.
Any time or place this misery chain should appear.
Take the locks and shackles, and melt all of it down.
Shine a light upon, every shadow, every acre of ground.
The hidden corners on in all around
Anyway you feel this misery chain should be found.
When we're gone, and it's all said and done.
What will we leave.
Stories told, will they speak of us when God only knows
That those word will be.
And if I should fall, from the top of the world
To the depths below, so far below where our believe could exist.
Down further still will be, the one who hides the key.
And there's to try to put these misery chains on me.
When we're gone, and it's all said and done.
What will we leave.
Stories told, will they speak of us when God only knows
That those word will be.
Won't you take one link, from this misery chain.
Keep it to remind you, of a long forgotten time or a place.
So that you recognize it, 'till it's understood.
And that every trace of this misery chain is gone for good.
'til every trace of this misery chain is gone for good.

As Hope And Promise Fade lyrics - Chris Cornell
As hope and promise fade
And the sun forgets to rise
I’m lonely and I’m thirsty
But it’s better I stay dry
No more than two drinks away
From crying
Stare into the glass
And wait for the time to pass
And thank you for the offer
But you know I must decline
Never more than two drinks awawy
From crying
There used to be a time
When I could hold my head up high
My life layed out before me
Rivers flow with wine
I had my love beside me
And everything was fine
But now the ride is over
It’s hard to say goodbye
As hope and promise fade
And midnight turns to day
Well I’m tired and I’m thirsty
But it’s better I stay dry
Never more than two drinks away
From crying…
From crying…
And the sun forgets to rise
I’m lonely and I’m thirsty
But it’s better I stay dry
No more than two drinks away
From crying
Stare into the glass
And wait for the time to pass
And thank you for the offer
But you know I must decline
Never more than two drinks awawy
From crying
There used to be a time
When I could hold my head up high
My life layed out before me
Rivers flow with wine
I had my love beside me
And everything was fine
But now the ride is over
It’s hard to say goodbye
As hope and promise fade
And midnight turns to day
Well I’m tired and I’m thirsty
But it’s better I stay dry
Never more than two drinks away
From crying…
From crying…
I Am The Highway lyrics - Chris Cornell
(originally by Audioslave)
Pearls and swine bereft of me.
Long and weary my road has been.
I was lost in the cities, alone in the hills.
No sorrow or pity for leaving, I feel.
I am not your rolling wheels, I am the highway.
I am not your carpet ride, I am the sky.
Friends and liars don't wait for me,
'Cause I'll get on all by myself.
I put millions of miles under my heels;
And still too close to you I feel.
I am not your rolling wheels, I am the highway.
I am not your carpet ride, I am the sky.
I am not your blowing wind, I am the lightning.
I am not your autumn moon, I am the night... night.
I am not your rolling wheels, I am the highway.
I am not your carpet ride, I am the sky.
I am not your blowing wind, I am the lightning.
I am not your autumn moon, I am night... night... night.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Pearls and swine bereft of me.
Long and weary my road has been.
I was lost in the cities, alone in the hills.
No sorrow or pity for leaving, I feel.
I am not your rolling wheels, I am the highway.
I am not your carpet ride, I am the sky.
Friends and liars don't wait for me,
'Cause I'll get on all by myself.
I put millions of miles under my heels;
And still too close to you I feel.
I am not your rolling wheels, I am the highway.
I am not your carpet ride, I am the sky.
I am not your blowing wind, I am the lightning.
I am not your autumn moon, I am the night... night.
I am not your rolling wheels, I am the highway.
I am not your carpet ride, I am the sky.
I am not your blowing wind, I am the lightning.
I am not your autumn moon, I am night... night... night.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Cleaning My Gun lyrics - Chris Cornell
You and I went gently, you and I went far and wide
You and I went deeply, you and I went for a ride
But somewhere in the ashes of this burning lovers' game
Somehow you decided you would find another flame
And as you lay sleeping with your eyes softly shut
I'll be cleaning my gun
I'll be cleaning my gun
When heaven or hell takes this life
I'll be done
You never lied to me, never said you'd be around for long
But somehow I believed that you would be my only one
Cause you know where I'm going, and you know where I'm coming from
But now this train is slowly coming to its final destination
And as you lay sleeping with your eyes softly shut
I'll be cleaning my gun, yeah
I'll be cleaning my gun
When heaven or hell takes this life
I'll be done
Mother always told me love would save me from myself
Daddy always said that love would take me straight to hell
Sometimes they were right and sometimes they were oh so wrong
Cause I'm cleaning my gun, yeah
I'm cleaning my gun
When heaven or hell takes this life
I'll be done
When heaven or hell takes this life
I'll be done
You and I went deeply, you and I went for a ride
But somewhere in the ashes of this burning lovers' game
Somehow you decided you would find another flame
And as you lay sleeping with your eyes softly shut
I'll be cleaning my gun
I'll be cleaning my gun
When heaven or hell takes this life
I'll be done
You never lied to me, never said you'd be around for long
But somehow I believed that you would be my only one
Cause you know where I'm going, and you know where I'm coming from
But now this train is slowly coming to its final destination
And as you lay sleeping with your eyes softly shut
I'll be cleaning my gun, yeah
I'll be cleaning my gun
When heaven or hell takes this life
I'll be done
Mother always told me love would save me from myself
Daddy always said that love would take me straight to hell
Sometimes they were right and sometimes they were oh so wrong
Cause I'm cleaning my gun, yeah
I'm cleaning my gun
When heaven or hell takes this life
I'll be done
When heaven or hell takes this life
I'll be done
Wide Awake lyrics - Chris Cornell
(originally by Audioslave)
You can a look a hurricane right in the eye.
1200 people dead or left to die.
Follow the leaders, were it an eye for an eye we'd all be blind.
Deaf or murdered, and this I'm sure in this uncertain time.
So come pull the sheet over my eyes
So I can sleep tonight
Despite what I've seen today.
I found you guilty of a crime, of sleeping at a time
When you should have been wide awake.
Down on the road the world is floating by.
The poor and undefended left behind.
While you're somewhere trading lives for oil,
As if the whole world were blind, hey.
So come pull the sheet over my eyes
So I can sleep tonight
Despite what I've seen today.
I found you guilty of a crime of sleeping at a time
When you should have been wide awake.
Come pull the sheet over my eyes
So I can sleep tonight
Despite what I've seen today
I found you guilty of a crime of sleeping at a time
When you should have been wide awake
Wide awake! Wide awake! Wide awake! Wide awake!
You can a look a hurricane right in the eye.
1200 people dead or left to die.
Follow the leaders, were it an eye for an eye we'd all be blind.
Deaf or murdered, and this I'm sure in this uncertain time.
So come pull the sheet over my eyes
So I can sleep tonight
Despite what I've seen today.
I found you guilty of a crime, of sleeping at a time
When you should have been wide awake.
Down on the road the world is floating by.
The poor and undefended left behind.
While you're somewhere trading lives for oil,
As if the whole world were blind, hey.
So come pull the sheet over my eyes
So I can sleep tonight
Despite what I've seen today.
I found you guilty of a crime of sleeping at a time
When you should have been wide awake.
Come pull the sheet over my eyes
So I can sleep tonight
Despite what I've seen today
I found you guilty of a crime of sleeping at a time
When you should have been wide awake
Wide awake! Wide awake! Wide awake! Wide awake!
Fell On Black Days lyrics - Chris Cornell
(originally by Soundgarden)
Whatsoever I've feared has
Come to life
Whatsoever I've fought off
Became my life
Just when everyday
Seemed to greet
Me with a smile
Sunspots have faded
And now I'm doing time
Cause I fell on
Black days
Whomsoever I've cured
I've sickened now
Whomsoever I've cradled
I've put you down
I'm a search light soul
They say but I can't
See it in the night
I'm only faking
When I get it right
Cause I fell on
Black days
How would I know
That this could be my fate
So what you wanted to
See good has made you blind
And what you wanted to
Be yours has made it
Mine
So don't you lock up
Something that you
Wanted to see fly
Hands are for shaking
No not tying
I sure don't
Mind a change
But I fell on black
Days
How would I know
That this could be
My fate
Whatsoever I've feared has
Come to life
Whatsoever I've fought off
Became my life
Just when everyday
Seemed to greet
Me with a smile
Sunspots have faded
And now I'm doing time
Cause I fell on
Black days
Whomsoever I've cured
I've sickened now
Whomsoever I've cradled
I've put you down
I'm a search light soul
They say but I can't
See it in the night
I'm only faking
When I get it right
Cause I fell on
Black days
How would I know
That this could be my fate
So what you wanted to
See good has made you blind
And what you wanted to
Be yours has made it
Mine
So don't you lock up
Something that you
Wanted to see fly
Hands are for shaking
No not tying
I sure don't
Mind a change
But I fell on black
Days
How would I know
That this could be
My fate
All Night Thing lyrics - Chris Cornell
(originally by Temple Of The Dog)
She motioned to me
That she wanted to leave
And go somewhere warm
Where we'd be alone
I do not know, what's going on
But I'm guessing it's an all night thing
If it's an all night thing
Nobody is gonna make it end
And if it don't begin
Don't worry that I'll take offense
And if it's an all night thing
And we fall like a tear falling
To the ground
I'll never come around
And you'll never hear a word from me
If it's an all night thing
I walked along, feeling at ease
And falling like rain
Into her scheme
She won't let on what that will be
But I'm guessing
It's an all night thing
If it's an all night thing
Nobody is gonna make it end
And if it don't begin
Don't worry that I'll take offense
And if it's an all night thing
And we fall like a tear falling
To the ground
I'll never come around
And you'll never hear a word from me
If it's an all night thing
She motioned to me
That she wanted to leave
And go somewhere warm
Where we'd be alone
I do not know, what's going on
But I'm guessing it's an all night thing
If it's an all night thing
Nobody is gonna make it end
And if it don't begin
Don't worry that I'll take offense
And if it's an all night thing
And we fall like a tear falling
To the ground
I'll never come around
And you'll never hear a word from me
If it's an all night thing
I walked along, feeling at ease
And falling like rain
Into her scheme
She won't let on what that will be
But I'm guessing
It's an all night thing
If it's an all night thing
Nobody is gonna make it end
And if it don't begin
Don't worry that I'll take offense
And if it's an all night thing
And we fall like a tear falling
To the ground
I'll never come around
And you'll never hear a word from me
If it's an all night thing
Doesn't Remind Me lyrics - Chris Cornell
(originally by Audioslave)
I walk the streets of Japan till I get lost
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
With a graveyard tan carrying a cross
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like studying faces in a parking lot
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like driving backwards in the fog
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
[Chorus]
The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
The things I've held sacred that I've dropped
I won't lie no more you can bet
I don't want to learn what I'll need to forget
I like gypsy moths and radio talk
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like gospel music and canned applause
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like colorful clothing in the sun
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I ilke hammering nails and speaking in tongues
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
[Chorus]
The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
The things I've held sacred that I've dropped
I won't lie no more you can bet
I don't want to learn what I'll need
Bend and shape me
I love the way you are
Slow and sweetly
Like never before
Calm and sleeping
We won't stir up the past
So descretely
We won't look back
[Chorus]
The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
The things I've held sacred that I've dropped
I won't lie no more you can bet
I don't want to learn what I'll need
I like throwing my voice and breaking guitars
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like playing in the sand what's mine is ours
If it doesn't remind me of anything
I walk the streets of Japan till I get lost
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
With a graveyard tan carrying a cross
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like studying faces in a parking lot
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like driving backwards in the fog
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
[Chorus]
The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
The things I've held sacred that I've dropped
I won't lie no more you can bet
I don't want to learn what I'll need to forget
I like gypsy moths and radio talk
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like gospel music and canned applause
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like colorful clothing in the sun
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I ilke hammering nails and speaking in tongues
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
[Chorus]
The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
The things I've held sacred that I've dropped
I won't lie no more you can bet
I don't want to learn what I'll need
Bend and shape me
I love the way you are
Slow and sweetly
Like never before
Calm and sleeping
We won't stir up the past
So descretely
We won't look back
[Chorus]
The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
The things I've held sacred that I've dropped
I won't lie no more you can bet
I don't want to learn what I'll need
I like throwing my voice and breaking guitars
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like playing in the sand what's mine is ours
If it doesn't remind me of anything
Like A Stone lyrics - Chris Cornell
(originally by Audioslave)
On a cold wet afternoon,
In a room full of emptiness by a freeway,
I confess I was lost in the pages of a book full of death;
Reading how we'll die alone.
And if we're good we'll lay to rest, anywhere we want to go.
In your house I long to be;
Room by room patiently,
I'll wait for you there, like a stone.
I'll wait for you there, Alone.
And on my deathbed I will pray to the gods and thee angels,
Like a pagan to anyone who will take me to heaven;
To a place I recall, I was there so long ago.
The sky was bruised, the wine was bled, and there you led me on.
In your house I long to be;
Room by room, patiently,
I'll wait for you there, like a stone.
I'll wait for you there, alone. Alone.
And on I read, until the day was gone;
And I sat in regret, of all the things I've done;
For all that I've blessed, and all that I've wronged.
In dreams until my death, I will wonder on.
In your house I long to be;
Room by room, patiently,
I'll wait for you there, like a stone.
Alone, Alone, A-L-O-N-E
I'll wait for you there, alone. Alone.
On a cold wet afternoon,
In a room full of emptiness by a freeway,
I confess I was lost in the pages of a book full of death;
Reading how we'll die alone.
And if we're good we'll lay to rest, anywhere we want to go.
In your house I long to be;
Room by room patiently,
I'll wait for you there, like a stone.
I'll wait for you there, Alone.
And on my deathbed I will pray to the gods and thee angels,
Like a pagan to anyone who will take me to heaven;
To a place I recall, I was there so long ago.
The sky was bruised, the wine was bled, and there you led me on.
In your house I long to be;
Room by room, patiently,
I'll wait for you there, like a stone.
I'll wait for you there, alone. Alone.
And on I read, until the day was gone;
And I sat in regret, of all the things I've done;
For all that I've blessed, and all that I've wronged.
In dreams until my death, I will wonder on.
In your house I long to be;
Room by room, patiently,
I'll wait for you there, like a stone.
Alone, Alone, A-L-O-N-E
I'll wait for you there, alone. Alone.
Black Hole Sun lyrics - Chris Cornell
(originally by Soundgarden)
In my eyes
Indisposed
In disguise
As no one knows
Hides the face
Lies the snake
The sun
In my disgrace
Boiling heat
Summer stench
'Neath the black
The sky looks dead
Call my name
Through the cream
And I'll hear you
Scream again
Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come
Won't you come
Stuttering
Cold and damp
Steal the warm wind
Tired friend
Times are gone
For honest men
And sometimes
Far too long
For snakes
In my shoes
A walking sleep
And my youth
I pray to keep
Heaven send
Hell away
No one sings
Like you
Anymore
Hang my head
Drown my fear
Till you all just
Disappear
In my eyes
Indisposed
In disguise
As no one knows
Hides the face
Lies the snake
The sun
In my disgrace
Boiling heat
Summer stench
'Neath the black
The sky looks dead
Call my name
Through the cream
And I'll hear you
Scream again
Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come
Won't you come
Stuttering
Cold and damp
Steal the warm wind
Tired friend
Times are gone
For honest men
And sometimes
Far too long
For snakes
In my shoes
A walking sleep
And my youth
I pray to keep
Heaven send
Hell away
No one sings
Like you
Anymore
Hang my head
Drown my fear
Till you all just
Disappear
Imagine lyrics - Chris Cornell
(originally by John Lennon)
Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
The Keeper lyrics - Chris Cornell
I come from far away
My boots don’t know this ground
But they know it’s real
It doesn’t take too long
For this road to become
A battlefield
And before I let one more fire go out
Understand that I won’t give one inch of ground
From beneath yours and my feet
Whatever the price happens to be
I may not be the keeper of the flame
But I am the keeper
Beauty and truth collide
Where love meets genocide
Where laughter meets fear
Confusion all around
And as I try to feed these mouths
That have never known singing
And before I let one more tear hit the ground
I will be the one standing between you and the sound
Of the rounds echoing out
Out of the dark
The smoke and the spark
Aimed at the heart of the flame
I am the keeper ooooh
I cannot see the light
At the end of the tunnel tonight
My eyes are weary
And before I let one more life get erased
From the ashes I will rise for you and the ghosts
Of the names the faces and frames
The love and the pain for you I remain
Though I’m not worthy of being
The keeper of the flame
I am the keeper yeahhhhh
I am the keeper.
My boots don’t know this ground
But they know it’s real
It doesn’t take too long
For this road to become
A battlefield
And before I let one more fire go out
Understand that I won’t give one inch of ground
From beneath yours and my feet
Whatever the price happens to be
I may not be the keeper of the flame
But I am the keeper
Beauty and truth collide
Where love meets genocide
Where laughter meets fear
Confusion all around
And as I try to feed these mouths
That have never known singing
And before I let one more tear hit the ground
I will be the one standing between you and the sound
Of the rounds echoing out
Out of the dark
The smoke and the spark
Aimed at the heart of the flame
I am the keeper ooooh
I cannot see the light
At the end of the tunnel tonight
My eyes are weary
And before I let one more life get erased
From the ashes I will rise for you and the ghosts
Of the names the faces and frames
The love and the pain for you I remain
Though I’m not worthy of being
The keeper of the flame
I am the keeper yeahhhhh
I am the keeper.
Part Of Me lyrics - Chris Cornell
Little girl, I love when she talks to me
Got to smile when she walks that walk with me
I want the girl but I want a lot
Might cross my mind, but that's where it stops
Oh, that bitch ain't a part of me
No, that bitch ain't a part of me
I said no, that bitch ain't a part of me
No, that bitch ain't a part of me
I said no, that bitch ain't a part of me
No, that bitch ain't a part of me
I said no, that bitch ain't a part of me
No, that bitch ain't a part of, part of, part of me
I love the girl, I'm loving the dress she wears
She's got a hold, got a hold of my neck, oh yeah
I wanna cry, the way that she moves
I want the girl but not what she's going through
Oh, that bitch ain't a part of me
No, that bitch ain't a part of me
I said no, that bitch ain't a part of me
No, that bitch ain't a part of me
I said no, that bitch ain't a part of me
No, that bitch ain't a part of me
I said no, that bitch ain't a part of me
No, that bitch ain't a part of, part of, part of me
She was so friendly, I had one too many
But now that they tell she was rubbing up against me
But I swear, never meant a thing, she was just a fling
There's no other woman who does it like you
That bitch ain't a part of me
No, that bitch ain't a part of me
I said no, that bitch ain't a part of me
No, that bitch ain't a part of me
I said no, that bitch ain't a part of me
No, that bitch ain't a part of, part of, part of me
Got to smile when she walks that walk with me
I want the girl but I want a lot
Might cross my mind, but that's where it stops
Oh, that bitch ain't a part of me
No, that bitch ain't a part of me
I said no, that bitch ain't a part of me
No, that bitch ain't a part of me
I said no, that bitch ain't a part of me
No, that bitch ain't a part of me
I said no, that bitch ain't a part of me
No, that bitch ain't a part of, part of, part of me
I love the girl, I'm loving the dress she wears
She's got a hold, got a hold of my neck, oh yeah
I wanna cry, the way that she moves
I want the girl but not what she's going through
Oh, that bitch ain't a part of me
No, that bitch ain't a part of me
I said no, that bitch ain't a part of me

No, that bitch ain't a part of me
I said no, that bitch ain't a part of me
No, that bitch ain't a part of, part of, part of me
She was so friendly, I had one too many

No, that bitch ain't a part of, part of, part of me
Time lyrics -Cornell
We don't talk like we used to.
The perfect present is no longer the future.
And I can't find it, trust me I looked around.
Seems like all the sand is at the bottom now.
We gotta know, know when to fight, know when to hold, and when to let it go.
I hope we survive because it's passing by,
I won't be surprised if it all up and blows.
Time time time (If it all up and blows) time time time time (I wish we could rewind)
time time time (I wish we could rewind) time time time time (I wish we could rewind)
We are the shore, the wave is rising
We are the dust made out of diamonds
When metal rusts, we are all drowning
Island of man, we are surrounded
We gotta know, know when to fight, know when to hold, and when to let it go.
I hope we survive because it's passing by,
I won't be surprised if it all up and blows.
Time time time (If it all up and blows) time time time time (I wish we could rewind)
time (time, time, time, time, time) time time time time time time (I wish we could rewind)
Make a little love, make a little war, tell me how it feels dreaming without a future
have a little laugh, have a little cry, each moment gets us closer to saying goodbye
Make a little love, make a little war, tell me how it feels dreaming without a future
have a little laugh, have a little cry, each moment gets us closer to saying goodbye
Big hand keeps getting closer to the little hand all good things come to an end and turn around again
The big hand keeps getting closer to the little hand all good things come to an end
We gotta know, know when to fight, know when to hold, and when to let it go.
I hope we survive because it's passing by,
I won't be surprised if it all up and blows.
Time time time (If it all up and blows) time time time time (I wish we could rewind)
time time time (I wish we could rewind) time time time time (I wish we could rewind)
Time time time (If it all up and blows) time time time time (I wish we could rewind)
time (time, time, time, time, time) time time time time time time (I wish we could rewind)
I wish we could rewind
([Timbaland:] smoking on a cigarette, my six pack's right beside me [x4] beside me [x14])
The perfect present is no longer the future.
And I can't find it, trust me I looked around.
Seems like all the sand is at the bottom now.
We gotta know, know when to fight, know when to hold, and when to let it go.
I hope we survive because it's passing by,
I won't be surprised if it all up and blows.

Sweet Revenge lyrics - Chris Cornell
Everybody out for my blood, everybody want my percent
I don't want to start going off, I don't want to start talking shit
They just want to take what is mine, how much more can they get
I already know what they want, I already know what they spent
Nowadays I think like a moment, why they looking for blood
I'm about to get what they owe, gonna get back what they stole
Let me talk to the fans, every time I walk in the door
They just want to take my advance, but I won't stop til they know
Walk with me now
When I retaliate, you're gonna know
The mourning of sweet revenge
Pain and suffering will come to those when I get even
It's such a
Sweet revenge [x4]
I bet they won't stop til I quit, I bet they won't leave til I go
Ain't gonna hurt me a bit, one monkey won't stop the show
I've been through dirt and sand, traveled to foreign lands
Been to hell and come back, I ain't gonna go there again
Why they wanna cause me to trip, why they wanna see me take a fall
They wanna get something for nothing, wanna see me jumping and running
Let me talk to the fans, never gonna stop doing this
Til I'm deep in the ground, come way too far to give in
Walk with me now
When I retaliate, you're gonna know
The mourning of sweet revenge
Pain and suffering will come to those when I get even
It's such a
Sweet revenge [x4]
When I retaliate, you're gonna know
The mourning of sweet revenge
Pain and suffering will come to those when I get even
It's such a
Sweet revenge [x4]
I don't want to start going off, I don't want to start talking shit
They just want to take what is mine, how much more can they get
I already know what they want, I already know what they spent
Nowadays I think like a moment, why they looking for blood
I'm about to get what they owe, gonna get back what they stole
Let me talk to the fans, every time I walk in the door
They just want to take my advance, but I won't stop til they know
Walk with me now
When I retaliate, you're gonna know
The mourning of sweet revenge
Pain and suffering will come to those when I get even
It's such a
Sweet revenge [x4]
I bet they won't stop til I quit, I bet they won't leave til I go
Ain't gonna hurt me a bit, one monkey won't stop the show
I've been through dirt and sand, traveled to foreign lands
Been to hell and come back, I ain't gonna go there again
Why they wanna cause me to trip, why they wanna see me take a fall
They wanna get something for nothing, wanna see me jumping and running
Let me talk to the fans, never gonna stop doing this
Til I'm deep in the ground, come way too far to give in
Walk with me now
When I retaliate, you're gonna know
The mourning of sweet revenge
Pain and suffering will come to those when I get even
It's such a
Sweet revenge [x4]
When I retaliate, you're gonna know
The mourning of sweet revenge
Pain and suffering will come to those when I get even
It's such a

Get Up lyrics - Chris Cornell
You've got a FADED sky
You've got no breathing room
You got a wasted life
You got nothing to do
Get up, get OFF the floor
I said get up
Do something more
You need a backbone, to roll with the world
You gotta get you one to RUN WITH THE BULLS
(You ready,)
(You ready,)
(Get ready,)
You got pint of blood, you got a losing HAND
You put a house of cards, on a HILL OF SAND
Get up,
get OFF the floor
I said get up,
Do something more,
You need a backbone, to roll with the world
You gotta get you one to RUN WITH THE BULLS
(You ready,)
(You ready,)
(GET ready,)
You got a fatal flaw
Skeleton made of straw
Images on the wall
Keeping you in the dark
You're in a pack of wolves
Trying to live alone
If you're gonna BE A MOLE
CRAWL BACK INSIDE YOUR HOLE
You've got no breathing room
You got a wasted life
You got nothing to do
Get up, get OFF the floor
I said get up
Do something more
You need a backbone, to roll with the world
You gotta get you one to RUN WITH THE BULLS
(You ready,)
(You ready,)
(Get ready,)
You got pint of blood, you got a losing HAND
You put a house of cards, on a HILL OF SAND
Get up,
get OFF the floor
I said get up,
Do something more,
You need a backbone, to roll with the world
You gotta get you one to RUN WITH THE BULLS
(You ready,)
(You ready,)
(GET ready,)
You got a fatal flaw
Skeleton made of straw
Images on the wall
Keeping you in the dark
You're in a pack of wolves
Trying to live alone
If you're gonna BE A MOLE
CRAWL BACK INSIDE YOUR HOLE
Ground Zero lyrics - Chris Cornell
The speaker on?
Yeah, you like that?
When it all falls down
And the law don't count
And it don't seem fair
And the people don't care
Where in the world you gonna go?
Who in the world you gonna hold?
When all the world keeps holding on at ground zero
We'll leave it all with God
When it all falls down
And we almost drown
When the sin sinks in ?
I guess it's every man for himself
Where in the world you gonna go?
Who in the world you gonna hold?
When all the world keeps holding on at ground zero
We'll leave it all with God ?
When the war it rages over the ages
You can't erase it once you spill the
Blood on the concrete river of deceit
Will you be around?
When it all falls down
And the law don't count
And it don't seem fair
And the people don't care
Where in the world you gonna go?
Who in the world you gonna hold
When all of the world keeps holding on at ground zero?
We'll leave it all with
Yeah, you like that?
When it all falls down
And the law don't count
And it don't seem fair
And the people don't care
Where in the world you gonna go?
Who in the world you gonna hold?
When all the world keeps holding on at ground zero
We'll leave it all with God
When it all falls down
And we almost drown
When the sin sinks in ?
I guess it's every man for himself
Where in the world you gonna go?
Who in the world you gonna hold?
When all the world keeps holding on at ground zero
We'll leave it all with God ?
When the war it rages over the ages
You can't erase it once you spill the
Blood on the concrete river of deceit
Will you be around?
When it all falls down
And the law don't count
And it don't seem fair
And the people don't care
Where in the world you gonna go?
Who in the world you gonna hold
When all of the world keeps holding on at ground zero?
We'll leave it all with
Never Far Away lyrics - Chris Cornell
You are the road that I will travel
You are the words I write
You are the ocean I will swallow
You are the wind I ride
You are the cause to keep my head up high
I will survive
You gotta know I'll stay beside you
Right till the day I die
I don't want to change anymore
I've already paid
(Said, I've already paid)
I don't have to pray anymore
Because my soul has been saved
And now
Whenever I come, whenever I go
No, you're never far away, far away
Never far away
You're the blood that's in my veins
You're my second skin, skin
I'm a feather on the wind
You will bring me in
Every heart should have a beat
Every night a dream
Every king should have a queen
Every saint a sin
I don't want to change anymore
(I don't want to change)
I've already paid
(Said, I've already paid)
I don't have to pray anymore
Because my soul has been saved
(Been saved)
Whenever I come, whenever I go
No, you're never far away, far away
Never far away
When I go hot you make sure I don't break
Gimme life inside of heaven's gates, I know
(Heaven, heaven)
You taught me how to live like [unverified]
Gave me definition for the worst I know
That there ain't no space between you and me
Whenever I come, whenever I go
No you're never far away, far away
Never far away
You are the words I write
You are the ocean I will swallow
You are the wind I ride
You are the cause to keep my head up high
I will survive
You gotta know I'll stay beside you
Right till the day I die
I don't want to change anymore
I've already paid
(Said, I've already paid)
I don't have to pray anymore
Because my soul has been saved
And now
Whenever I come, whenever I go
No, you're never far away, far away
Never far away
You're the blood that's in my veins
You're my second skin, skin
I'm a feather on the wind

Every heart should have a beat
Every night a dream
Every king should have a queen

Take Me Alive lyrics - Chris Cornell
I tried and tried to walk away
To be the bigger man and leave
You made it hard for me, for me
Its been a long lonly road
I didnt know which way to go
You made my blood run cold
And filled me up with sorrow
Theres no where for me to go
I'm a long way away from home
I wont go without a fight
You'll never take me alive
You'll never take me alive oh no you wont
Ever take me alive oh no you wont
Take me alive oh no you wont
Ever take me alive oh no you wont
I tried and tried to shed your skin
But you've controlled me from within
Your love has been a sin
I wont forget tomorrow
Theres no where for me to go
I'm a long way away from home
I wont go without a fight
You'll never take me alive
In the fire inside the circle
Lonly treats today
You'll never take me alive oh no you wont
(in the fire inside the circle)
Ever take me alive oh no you wont
(lonly treats today)
Take me alive oh no you wont
(in the fire inside the circle)
Ever take me alive oh no you wont
(lonly treats today)
In the fire inside
To be the bigger man and leave
You made it hard for me, for me
Its been a long lonly road
I didnt know which way to go
You made my blood run cold
And filled me up with sorrow
Theres no where for me to go
I'm a long way away from home
I wont go without a fight
You'll never take me alive
You'll never take me alive oh no you wont
Ever take me alive oh no you wont
Take me alive oh no you wont
Ever take me alive oh no you wont
I tried and tried to shed your skin
But you've controlled me from within
Your love has been a sin
I wont forget tomorrow
Theres no where for me to go
I'm a long way away from home
I wont go without a fight
You'll never take me alive

Take me alive oh no you wont

Ever take me alive oh no you wont

In the fire inside
Long Gone lyrics - Chris Cornell
Baby, I used to watch your flowers grow
Now it's raining and all your petals turns to stone
I've been praying, I turn around and see my rose
But you faded, you left, me now it's time to go
You're like a diamond and I'm like glass
Like oil and water we always clash
Sometimes my confessions are hard for me
I'll tell you now I'm setting you free
That's why I'm long gone, long gone
You need to let me fly alone
That's why I'm long gone, long gone
You need to let me fly alone
That's why I'm long gone, long gone
You need to let me fly alone
That's why I'm long gone, long gone
It may be to late our time is done
Baby, I think you've got your timing wrong
Hating, exploring this while we're riding on
And it's crazy to think that I could be reborn
If you saved me now it's too late and you'll never know
You're like a diamond and I'm like glass
Like oil and water we always clash
Sometimes my confessions are hard for me
I'll tell you now I'm setting you free
That's why I'm long gone, long gone
You need to let me fly alone
That's why I'm long gone, long gone
You need to let me fly alone
That's why I'm long gone, long gone
You need to let me fly alone
That's why I'm long gone, long gone
It may be to late our time is done
With broken wings
(with broken wings)
I can't fly
(I can't fly)
I'm gonna need you to save me, angel of mine
With broken wings
(with broken wings)
I can't fly
(I can't fly)
I'm gonna need you to save me, angel of mine
That's why I'm long gone, long gone
You need to let me fly alone
That's why I'm long gone, long gone
You need to let me fly alone
That's why I'm long gone, long gone
You need to let me fly alone
That's why I'm long gone, long gone
It may be to late our time is done
You're like a diamond and I'm like glass
Like oil and water we always clash
Sometimes my confessions are hard for me
I'll tell you now I'm setting you free
Now it's raining and all your petals turns to stone
I've been praying, I turn around and see my rose

Scream lyrics - Chris Cornell (feat. Timbaland)
I take a minute to tell you right
And you can say what you want
And turn around every night
Somehow you're always going off
Doesn't matter what I done
Or if I even crossed the line
You start to holler, going for blood
Girl, it doesn't have to be a fight
Throwing out the blame when you know it ain't my fault
Messing with my brain when you wanna see me fall
There may come a time when I don't bother you at all
It isn't my call, it isn't my call
Hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?
I said hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?
I said hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?
I said hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?
There's no need to scream, baby
I'm standing right in front of your face
Why? I know sometimes we don't get along
So Chris sing the second verse to her, like this
Take a minute to tell you now
And I don't have to raise my tone
Take the level and bring it down
I just want you to know
I got no trouble with what you said
I don't even think you're wrong
It's how you say it, you lose your head
Girl, I'm standing right in front of you
Throwing out the blame when you know it ain't my fault
Messing with my brain when you wanna see me fall
There may come a time when I don't bother you at all
It isn't my call, it isn't my call
Hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?
I said hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?
I said hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?
I said hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?
Silence is golden
I used to think that silence was golden
Silence is golden
I used to think that silence was golden
Silence is golden
I used to think that silence was golden
Silence is golden
I used to think that silence was golden
Hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?
I said hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?
I said hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?
I said hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?
Silence is golden
I used to think that silence was golden
Silence is golden
I used to think that silence was golden
And you can say what you want
And turn around every night
Somehow you're always going off
Doesn't matter what I done
Or if I even crossed the line
You start to holler, going for blood
Girl, it doesn't have to be a fight
Throwing out the blame when you know it ain't my fault
Messing with my brain when you wanna see me fall
There may come a time when I don't bother you at all
It isn't my call, it isn't my call
Hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?
I said hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?
I said hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?
I said hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?
There's no need to scream, baby
I'm standing right in front of your face
Why? I know sometimes we don't get along
So Chris sing the second verse to her, like this
Take a minute to tell you now
And I don't have to raise my tone
Take the level and bring it down

I said hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?
Silence is golden
I used to think that silence was golden
Silence is golden
I used to think that silence was golden
Silence is golden
I used to think that silence was golden
Silence is golden
I used to think that silence was golden
Hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?
I said hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?
I said hey, why you keep screaming at the top of your head?

Enemy lyrics - Chris Cornell
Everytime the blood runs to my head I hear the ring
Something to remind me I'm not dead or caught in between
I listen to the voice and what it says its never sweet
Somethin I was born into I guess livin' in me
No prize nothinng I pay will make it all rised
Nothin' I see will make it lose sight
Nothin' I take will make me sleep at night ,sleep at night
When I look at them and I feel I guess I got to be runnin runnin runnin runinn
I will never sake this feelin till I feel nothin nothin nothin
I'm the enemy enemy enemy inside of me enemy enemy enemy
I'm the enemy enemy enemy inside of me enemy enemy enemy
Everytime I take another breath I feel
Everyone around is seem so numb I feel everything
No prize nothinng I pay will make it all rised
Nothin' I see will make it lose sight
Nothin' I take will make me sleep at night ,sleep at night
When I look at them and I feel I guess I got to be runnin' runnin' runnin'
I will never sake this feelin till I feel nothin nothin nothin
I'm the enemy enemy enemy inside of me enemy enemy enemy
I'm the enemy enemy enemy inside of me enemy enemy enemy
Taking my time to untagle the wires and staring to my sanity
Plopping the hammer and pulling the trigger I know now the bullet is me
I'm the enemy inside of me,
I'm the enemy, enemy, enemy inside of me enemy, enemy, enemy
I'm the enemy, enemy, enemy inside of me enemy, enemy, enemy
Something to remind me I'm not dead or caught in between

Somethin I was born into I guess livin' in me
No prize nothinng I pay will make it all rised
Nothin' I see will make it lose sight

Other Side Of Town lyrics - Chris Cornell
We met at party 'bout almost two years ago
But there was a part of me that she just didn't know
I tried to hide it from her but it didn't take long
Before she would've found me and see where I go
I wanted to tell her but I just didn't know how
And every time I'd spoke, the words just wouldn't come out
Everyone will tell you that old habits die hard
And it's just the same for me
She wouldn't compromise
She'd wanna stand her ground
She wouldn't talk to me
She wouldn't make the sound
She wanna say goodbye
I wanna reconcile
What type of shit is she on?
I should've left that side of town alone
I should've left that side of the town alone
I should've left that side of town alone
A long time ago
I should've left that side of town alone
I should've left that side of the town alone
I should've left that side of town alone
A long time ago
Guilty, it's getting to me but she wasn't home
Keep trying to call but she won't pick up her phone
My conscience is speaking to me but I'm in the wrong
She don't wanna talk to me, she'd rather go, go
Tried to apologize for the lies that I told
She don't wanna hear it n' told me to leave her alone
I didn't appreciate her until she was gone
And now it's too late for that
She wouldn't compromise
She'd wanna stand her ground
She wouldn't talk to me
She wouldn't make the sound
She wanna say goodbye
I wanna reconcile
What type of shit is she on?
I should've left that side of town alone
I should've left that side of the town alone
I should've left that side of town alone
A long time ago
I should've left that side of town alone
I should've left that side of the town alone
I should've left that side of town alone
A long time ago
She won't even talk to me, no
She won't even talk to me, no
She won't even talk to me, no
She won't, she won't
She won't even talk to me, no
(She wouldn't compromise)
(She'd wanna stand her ground)
She won't even talk to me, no
(She wouldn't talk to me)
(She wouldn't make the sound)
She won't even talk to me, no
(She wanna say goodbye)
(I wanna reconcile)
She won't, she won't
(What type of shit is she on?)
I should've left that side of town alone
I should've left that side of the town alone
I should've left that side of town alone
A long time ago
I should've left that side of town alone
I should've left that side of the town alone
I should've left that side of town alone
A long time ago
But there was a part of me that she just didn't know

I should've left that side of town alone

I should've left that side of town alone
A long time ago
Climbing Up The Walls lyrics - Chris Cornell
I keep seeing your face when my eyes are closed
I'm remembering how it used to go
All the medicated, nearly comatose
A bullet out of your head, is it on that road?
So much in your mind when you kill more than time
You're sinking so low, thinking you will be high
Biting your lip while you're losing your mind
Alone God knows
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're just climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
Now you're reaching that age where you should know
How to figure it out out all on your own
On the far side of town is a room you love
Started tearing it down to get you to follow
So much in your mind when you kill more than time
You're sinking so low, thinking you will be high
Biting your lip while you're losing your mind
Alone God knows
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're just climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're just climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
The world won't rise and ease your crying
If you do nothing, if you do nothing
The world won't try to change your mind
If you don't change at all
The world won't rise and ease your crying
If you do nothing, if you do nothing
The world won't try to change your mind
If you don't change at all
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're just climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're just climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
Drunk, he's fast asleep
He's so tired, makes me weep
He stays up all night working on his songs
But then I guess we all do the same thing
He's sleepy
I'm remembering how it used to go
All the medicated, nearly comatose
A bullet out of your head, is it on that road?
So much in your mind when you kill more than time
You're sinking so low, thinking you will be high
Biting your lip while you're losing your mind
Alone God knows
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're just climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
Now you're reaching that age where you should know
How to figure it out out all on your own
On the far side of town is a room you love
Started tearing it down to get you to follow
So much in your mind when you kill more than time
You're sinking so low, thinking you will be high
Biting your lip while you're losing your mind
Alone God knows
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're just climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're just climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
The world won't rise and ease your crying
If you do nothing, if you do nothing
The world won't try to change your mind
If you don't change at all
The world won't rise and ease your crying
If you do nothing, if you do nothing
The world won't try to change your mind
If you don't change at all
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're just climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're just climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
You're climbing up the walls, the walls, the walls
Drunk, he's fast asleep
He's so tired, makes me weep
He stays up all night working on his songs
But then I guess we all do the same thing
He's sleepy
Watch Out lyrics - Chris Cornell
Hey hey
Watch out!
She keep on going when the light turns red
Watch out!
3 in the morning she ain't ever going to bed
Watch out!
She's going 90 in the residential zone
Watch out!
She's speeding while she put her make up on
(N n now now) Pick it up, pick it up, watch out, now pick it up
Pick it up, pick it up, watch out, now pick it up
Pick it up, pick it up, watch out, now pick it up
Pick it up, pick it up, watch out, now pick it up (pick it up)
Pick it up, watch out, now pick it up (pick it up)
Pick it up, watch out, now pick it up (pick it up)
Pick it up, watch out, now pick it up
Watch out!
She's driving crazy like the roads on fire
Watch out!
Killing the motor and she's smoking up the tires
Hey hey, watch out!
She hit the corners with her foot on the floor
Watch out!
She likes the lincoln with the sui-suicide doors
Pick it up, pick it up, watch out, now pick it up
Pick it up, pick it up, watch out, now pick it up
Pick it up, pick it up, watch out, now pick it up
Pick it up, pick it up, watch out, now pick it up (pick it up)
Pick it up, watch out, now pick it up (pick it up)
Pick it up, watch out, now pick it up (pick it up)
Pick it up, watch out, now pick it up
Ooh, ooh pick it up ooh hey hey, ooh
Watch out!
She's in the mirror but she coming on quick
Watch out!
She's gonna catch ya then she leave ya to the wind
Hey hey watch out!
She passing fools like they're going in reverse
She's gone insane I think her brakes don't work
Pick it up, pick it up, watch out, now pick it up
Pick it up, pick it up, watch out, now pick it up

Two Drink Minimum lyrics - Chris Cornell
This open promise fades and the sun forgets to rise
I'm lonely and I'm thirsty but it's better I stay dry
No more than two drinks away from crying
Stare into the glass and wait for the time to pass
And thank you for the offer but you know I must decline
Never more than two drinks away from crying
There used to be a time when I could hold my head up high
My life stretched out before me, rivers flow with wine
I had my love beside me and everything was fine
Now the ride is over, it's hard to say goodbye
This whole promise fades and midnight turns to day
I'd love to drown my sorrow but I cannot tell a lie
No more than two drinks away from crying
I'm lonely and I'm thirsty but it's better I stay dry
No more than two drinks away from crying
Stare into the glass and wait for the time to pass
And thank you for the offer but you know I must decline
Never more than two drinks away from crying
There used to be a time when I could hold my head up high
My life stretched out before me, rivers flow with wine
I had my love beside me and everything was fine
Now the ride is over, it's hard to say goodbye
This whole promise fades and midnight turns to day
I'd love to drown my sorrow but I cannot tell a lie
No more than two drinks away from crying
No Such Thing lyrics - Chris Cornell
I saw the world, it was beautiful
But the rain got in and ruined it all
Then I tried to be invisible
It was impossible
Even for me
I laughed at love
It was a big mistake
In the absence of
I filled it with hate
Cause there's no such thing as nothing
Yeah there's no such thing as nothing at all
I had the brains not to think at all
But the rain got in
And I thought too hard
On the world, and as usual
I slumped too far into the void
I tried to make everything meaningless
But the rain got in and made it a mess
Cause there's no such thing as nothing
Yeah there's no such thing as nothing at all
Yeah there's no such thing as nothing
But my finger's on the trigger
And I'll turn off the world
So what gives me the right
To think that I could throw away a life?
Even mine
And what makes you believe
That you could get away with getting old?
Overlapping me
Maybe to lose or to save your soul
Is a choice of how you fill the hole
And the rain got in
Cause there's no such thing as nothing
Yeah there's no such thing as nothing at all
There's no such thing as nothing
But my finger's on the trigger
And I'll turn off the world
But the rain got in and ruined it all
Then I tried to be invisible
It was impossible
Even for me
I laughed at love
It was a big mistake
In the absence of
I filled it with hate
Cause there's no such thing as nothing
Yeah there's no such thing as nothing at all
I had the brains not to think at all
But the rain got in
And I thought too hard
On the world, and as usual
I slumped too far into the void
I tried to make everything meaningless
But the rain got in and made it a mess
Cause there's no such thing as nothing
Yeah there's no such thing as nothing at all
Yeah there's no such thing as nothing
But my finger's on the trigger
And I'll turn off the world
So what gives me the right
To think that I could throw away a life?
Even mine
And what makes you believe
That you could get away with getting old?
Overlapping me
Maybe to lose or to save your soul
Is a choice of how you fill the hole
And the rain got in
Cause there's no such thing as nothing
Yeah there's no such thing as nothing at all
There's no such thing as nothing
But my finger's on the trigger
And I'll turn off the world
Poison Eye lyrics - Chris Cornell
I heard the sound bite
I read your words right
I saw the light
I heard you singing
I know this song
It's my turn to write
I put this hook inside
So you won't soon forget
I got the radar
I can see so far
With my poison eye
Yeah my poison eye
When I look hard
I see in the stars
What you've done and what lies
Awaiting for you
When I look down
I see the ground
I won't make a sound
I won't need to look at you
Inside the phone lines
You think you'll hide
And you'll be alright
You're in my sidelines
You'll have no time
Even to cry
I see your pain
I see my face on your fear
I got the radar
I can see so far
With my poison eye
Yeah my poison eye
When I look hard
I see in the stars
What you've done and what lies
Awaiting for you
When i look down
I see the ground
I won't make a sound
I won't need to look at you
I can see sparks
Over a lake at midnight
I see the smiles
Falling from your face
But you're in the dark
You're in a maze
All you can do is sit here and wait for me
And I'm coming
I know the low road
I wrote the code
To break in your heart
I see the angles
I draw the cards
That burden you so
I have the sight
That follows you morning and night
I got the radar
I can see so far
With my poison eye
Yeah my poison eye
My poison eye
I read your words right
I saw the light
I heard you singing
I know this song
It's my turn to write
I put this hook inside
So you won't soon forget
I got the radar
I can see so far
With my poison eye
Yeah my poison eye
When I look hard
I see in the stars
What you've done and what lies
Awaiting for you
When I look down
I see the ground
I won't make a sound
I won't need to look at you
Inside the phone lines
You think you'll hide
And you'll be alright
You're in my sidelines
You'll have no time
Even to cry
I see your pain
I see my face on your fear
I got the radar
I can see so far
With my poison eye
Yeah my poison eye
When I look hard
I see in the stars
What you've done and what lies
Awaiting for you
When i look down

I won't make a sound
I won't need to look at you

Over a lake at midnight

Arms Around Your Love lyrics - Chris Cornell
With his arms around your love
Oh no, here comes the pain that you can't ignore
With his arms around your girl
He'll do all of the things you didn't do before
You had every chance, but you closed the door..
Now you're just gonna have to take it
(Cause if you didn't know)
She's gonna make you pay for it
(At a price you can't afford)
You're just gonna have to take it
With his arms around your love [x3]
Oh yeah
Pretend that you don't mind
But you know everything that you left behind
And it would have been alright
If you'd gave half of the praise that you held inside
You thought she'd hang around for the ride...
Now you're just gonna have to take it
(Cause if you didn't know)
She's gonna make you pay for it
(At a price you can't afford)
You're just gonna have to take it
With his arms around your love [x3]
Coming clean feels so dangerous
Just a little bit would have been enough
But you never said all the words caught in your head
As if your heart was dead
Well now its surely bled and broken up
And it would have been alright
If you'd gave half of the praise that you held inside
You thought she'd hang around for the ride...
Now you're just gonna have to take it
(Cause if you didn't know)
She's gonna make you pay for it
(At a price you can't afford)
You're just gonna have to take it
With his arms around your love...
Oh no, here comes the pain that you can't ignore
With his arms around your girl
He'll do all of the things you didn't do before
You had every chance, but you closed the door..
Now you're just gonna have to take it
(Cause if you didn't know)
She's gonna make you pay for it
(At a price you can't afford)
You're just gonna have to take it
With his arms around your love [x3]
Oh yeah
Pretend that you don't mind
But you know everything that you left behind
And it would have been alright
If you'd gave half of the praise that you held inside
You thought she'd hang around for the ride...
Now you're just gonna have to take it
(Cause if you didn't know)
She's gonna make you pay for it
(At a price you can't afford)
You're just gonna have to take it
With his arms around your love [x3]
Coming clean feels so dangerous
Just a little bit would have been enough
But you never said all the words caught in your head
As if your heart was dead
Well now its surely bled and broken up
And it would have been alright
If you'd gave half of the praise that you held inside
You thought she'd hang around for the ride...
Now you're just gonna have to take it
(Cause if you didn't know)
She's gonna make you pay for it
(At a price you can't afford)
You're just gonna have to take it
With his arms around your love...
Safe And Sound lyrics - Chris Cornell
Think of a time
When morning will come
And you will wake up without the feeling
That half the world has gone insane
You'll open your eyes
Reading your paper, a drink from your cup
No one was burning down time while you were sleeping
I've never seen but I believe
In a promised land
Why can't we pull this together?
One and all, now and forever
Why can't we pull this together?
We can say we finally found a world that's safe and sound
Think of a place that you could believe in whatever you want
Not keep it secret
Have to risk your life just to be yourself
A place where you'll walk safely no matter your color or age
More than the greed of you and me
Decides the fate of the day
I'd never seen but I believe
In a promised land
Why can't we pull this together?
One and all, now and forever
Why can't we pull this together?
We can say we finally found a world that's safe and sound
I'd rather see you setting free than watch the curtains coming down
Think of a life you won't take the breath from somebody else
One where you're seeking more than yourself
Why can't we pull this together?
One and all, now and forever
Why can't we pull this together?
We can say we finally found a world that's safe and sound
Why can't we pull this together?
Now and forever
Pull this together
We can say we finally found a world that's safe and sound
I'd rather see you setting free than watch the curtains coming down...
When morning will come
And you will wake up without the feeling
That half the world has gone insane
You'll open your eyes
Reading your paper, a drink from your cup
No one was burning down time while you were sleeping
I've never seen but I believe
In a promised land
Why can't we pull this together?
One and all, now and forever
Why can't we pull this together?
We can say we finally found a world that's safe and sound
Think of a place that you could believe in whatever you want
Not keep it secret
Have to risk your life just to be yourself
A place where you'll walk safely no matter your color or age
More than the greed of you and me
Decides the fate of the day
I'd never seen but I believe
In a promised land
Why can't we pull this together?
One and all, now and forever
Why can't we pull this together?
We can say we finally found a world that's safe and sound
I'd rather see you setting free than watch the curtains coming down
Think of a life you won't take the breath from somebody else
One where you're seeking more than yourself
Why can't we pull this together?
One and all, now and forever
Why can't we pull this together?
We can say we finally found a world that's safe and sound
Why can't we pull this together?
Now and forever
Pull this together
We can say we finally found a world that's safe and sound
I'd rather see you setting free than watch the curtains coming down...
She'll Never Be Your Man lyrics - Chris Cornell
The A.M. finds me
Home alone awake in bed
Morning blinds me
Had that dream of you again
Fog is lifting
I realize that you're not here
And how you left me
Life disappeared
Life is rejection
I know you've had your share
But this one's special
I can't compete with her
And did she tell you
Only she could know your mind
And did she sell you
I gotta say it one time
She can be your lover
She can be your friend
She can be your vision of a mother like the one you never had
She will know your troubles better than I can
But she'll never be your man
She'll never be your man
She'll never be your man
She's got you thinking
Of a world where you might fit in
A whole lot better
Than the one you've been living in
And did she tell you
Only she could understand
And did she sell you
Only time will tell
She can be your lover
She can be your friend
She can be your vision of a mother like the one you never had
She will know your troubles better than I can
But she'll never be your man
She'll never be your man
She'll never be your man
She can be your lover
She can be your friend
She can be your vision of a mother like the one you never had
She will know your troubles better than I can
But one thing's for sure
She'll never be your man
She can be your lover
She can be your friend
A vision of a mother like the one you never had
She will know your troubles better than I can
But one thing's for sure
She'll never be your man
She'll never be your man
Never be your man
She'll never be your man
Never be your man
Never be
She'll never be your man
Home alone awake in bed
Morning blinds me
Had that dream of you again
Fog is lifting
I realize that you're not here
And how you left me
Life disappeared
Life is rejection
I know you've had your share
But this one's special
I can't compete with her
And did she tell you
Only she could know your mind
And did she sell you
I gotta say it one time
She can be your lover
She can be your friend
She can be your vision of a mother like the one you never had
She will know your troubles better than I can
But she'll never be your man
She'll never be your man
She'll never be your man
She's got you thinking
Of a world where you might fit in
A whole lot better
Than the one you've been living in
And did she tell you
Only she could understand
And did she sell you
Only time will tell
She can be your lover
She can be your friend
She can be your vision of a mother like the one you never had
She will know your troubles better than I can
But she'll never be your man
She'll never be your man
She'll never be your man
She can be your lover
She can be your friend
She can be your vision of a mother like the one you never had
She will know your troubles better than I can
But one thing's for sure
She'll never be your man
She can be your lover
She can be your friend
A vision of a mother like the one you never had
She will know your troubles better than I can
But one thing's for sure
She'll never be your man
She'll never be your man
Never be your man
She'll never be your man
Never be your man
Never be
She'll never be your man
Ghosts lyrics - Chris Cornell
I know what you're looking for
You've looked in these eyes before
And all you saw was blue green water
Searching for a mirror
That would show the world not who you are
But who you wanna be
And you thought you'd found that one in me
But it's been a long time since I heard that name
He doesn't live here anymore
Don't know where he's residing
you can wait here if you want
But I don't think he's coming back
He doesn't live here anymore
Sure you've found the right place
The same address you knew before
But that won't change what lies behind the door
And what lies underneath had to change from the inside out
He doesn't live here anymore
Don't know where he's residing
I think it's better if you go
Cause I don't want him coming back
Yes I know the name sounds a little bit familiar
Like a melody to a dream
Yes I know he wore the same face, the same clothes
But that was so long ago
I know who you want to find
Somewhere is the memory of somebody I left behind
Well lets take it all in stride
Yeah it's that time to say goodbye
He doesn't live here anymore
You've looked in these eyes before
And all you saw was blue green water
Searching for a mirror
That would show the world not who you are
But who you wanna be
And you thought you'd found that one in me
But it's been a long time since I heard that name
He doesn't live here anymore
Don't know where he's residing
you can wait here if you want
But I don't think he's coming back
He doesn't live here anymore
Sure you've found the right place
The same address you knew before
But that won't change what lies behind the door
And what lies underneath had to change from the inside out
He doesn't live here anymore
Don't know where he's residing
I think it's better if you go
Cause I don't want him coming back
Yes I know the name sounds a little bit familiar
Like a melody to a dream
Yes I know he wore the same face, the same clothes
But that was so long ago
I know who you want to find
Somewhere is the memory of somebody I left behind
Well lets take it all in stride
Yeah it's that time to say goodbye
He doesn't live here anymore
Killing Birds lyrics - Chris Cornell
I learned long ago
'bout a better way of killing birds
And what it means when they die in my hands
Like a strangled heart
It never made much sense to me
Why I'd need to know the best way to do that
But you have to love the murderer I've become
As I'm standing here in front of you
Standing right in front of you
Standing here in front of you
Killing birds
I've spent my youth
Breaking down the walls my father built
Just like he did to his father before him
But then I had no home
So I tried to make a better one
It looked just like his, so I burned it down again
No there ain't a long parade of idiots
As I'm standing here in front of you
Standing right in front of you
Standing here in front of you
Killing birds
You don't have to love the murderer I've become
If I could spin a web
I would sit and wait for you
I wouldn't need a stone, I'd just poison you and tie you up
And you would be a bird
A beautiful cresent one
And your eyes would beg
But i'm just doing my job
Standing here in front of you
Standing right in front of you
Standing here in front of you
Standing right in front of you
Standing here in front of you
Standing right in front of you
Standing here in front of you
Killing birds
'bout a better way of killing birds
And what it means when they die in my hands
Like a strangled heart
It never made much sense to me
Why I'd need to know the best way to do that
But you have to love the murderer I've become
As I'm standing here in front of you
Standing right in front of you
Standing here in front of you
Killing birds
I've spent my youth
Breaking down the walls my father built
Just like he did to his father before him
But then I had no home
So I tried to make a better one
It looked just like his, so I burned it down again
No there ain't a long parade of idiots
As I'm standing here in front of you
Standing right in front of you
Standing here in front of you
Killing birds
You don't have to love the murderer I've become
If I could spin a web
I would sit and wait for you
I wouldn't need a stone, I'd just poison you and tie you up
And you would be a bird
A beautiful cresent one
And your eyes would beg
But i'm just doing my job
Standing here in front of you
Standing right in front of you
Standing here in front of you
Standing right in front of you
Standing here in front of you
Standing right in front of you
Standing here in front of you
Killing birds
Billie Jean lyrics - Chris Cornell
She was more like a beauty queen from a movie scene
I said don't mind, but what do you mean I am the one
Gonna dance on the floor in the round
She said I am the one who will dance on the floor in the round
She told me her name was Billie Jean, as she caused a scene
Then every head turned with eyes that dreamed of being the one
Gonna dance on the floor in the round
People always told me be careful of what you do
Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts
And mother always told me be careful of who you love
Be careful of what you do 'cause the lie becomes the truth
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
She says I am the one, but the kid is not my son
For forty days and forty nights
The law was on her side
But who can stand when she's in demand
Her schemes and plans
Gonna dance on the floor in the round
So take my strong advice, just remember to always think twice
Do think twice
She told my baby that's a threat
As she looked at me
Then showed a photo of a baby cries
Eyes would like mine
Gonna dance on the floor in the round,
People always told me be careful of what you do
And don't go around breaking young girls' hearts
She came and stood right by me
Then the smell of sweet perfume
This happened much too soon
She called me to her room
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
So take my strong advice, just remember to always think twice
Do think twice
I said don't mind, but what do you mean I am the one
Gonna dance on the floor in the round
She said I am the one who will dance on the floor in the round
She told me her name was Billie Jean, as she caused a scene
Then every head turned with eyes that dreamed of being the one
Gonna dance on the floor in the round
People always told me be careful of what you do
Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts
And mother always told me be careful of who you love
Be careful of what you do 'cause the lie becomes the truth
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
She says I am the one, but the kid is not my son
For forty days and forty nights
The law was on her side
But who can stand when she's in demand
Her schemes and plans
Gonna dance on the floor in the round
So take my strong advice, just remember to always think twice
Do think twice
She told my baby that's a threat
As she looked at me
Then showed a photo of a baby cries
Eyes would like mine
Gonna dance on the floor in the round,
People always told me be careful of what you do
And don't go around breaking young girls' hearts
She came and stood right by me
Then the smell of sweet perfume
This happened much too soon
She called me to her room
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
So take my strong advice, just remember to always think twice
Do think twice
Scar On The Sky lyrics - Chris Cornell
As I fall I leave this scar upon the sky
A simple note for you, I'll wait for your reply
And in your answer I'll regain my will to try
So hover in the diving light
We will rip the night
Out of the arms of the sun one more time
Close your eyes and we will fly
Above the clouded sky
And over the dumbstruck world we will run
In these hills they wash the golden grains away
To the valley under all of this I lay
And may you dig me out unearthed and saved
So hover in the diving light
We will rip the night
Out of the arms of the sun one more time
Close your eyes and we will fly
Above the clouded sky
And over the dumbstruck world we will run
We can rip the night
Out of the arms of the sun
A blood red feather leaves a scar upon my hand
No longer scrounded like a painted bird on a fan
So hover in the diving light
We will rip the night
Out of the arms of the sun one more time
Close your eyes and we will fly
Above the clouded sky
And over the dumbstruck world we will run
We can rip the night
Out of the arms of the sun [x3]
A simple note for you, I'll wait for your reply
And in your answer I'll regain my will to try
So hover in the diving light
We will rip the night
Out of the arms of the sun one more time
Close your eyes and we will fly
Above the clouded sky
And over the dumbstruck world we will run
In these hills they wash the golden grains away
To the valley under all of this I lay
And may you dig me out unearthed and saved
So hover in the diving light
We will rip the night
Out of the arms of the sun one more time
Close your eyes and we will fly
Above the clouded sky
And over the dumbstruck world we will run
We can rip the night
Out of the arms of the sun
A blood red feather leaves a scar upon my hand
No longer scrounded like a painted bird on a fan
So hover in the diving light
We will rip the night
Out of the arms of the sun one more time
Close your eyes and we will fly
Above the clouded sky
And over the dumbstruck world we will run
We can rip the night
Out of the arms of the sun [x3]
Your Soul Today lyrics - Chris Cornell
Sleeping on the road that takes you home
Howling at the moon at midnight
I want the wrong that sets you right
I'll be praying at your bedside
How long i've been a soul in the gutter
I don't have a home or a mother or anywhere to lay my head down
Can I visit your arms?
Can i visit your legs?
I won't need your insults or praise
Won't burn in your heart
Don't worry your head
Yeah if you don't want a soul mate
I'm your soul today
Hanging on a rope from a burning tree
Singing on a broken headstone
Bleeding from an old wound
Swimming in the fever
Waiting for a ressurection
I know it's a miracle I've lived this long
I don't want to give the wrong impression
But I've come so far
Can I visit your arms?
Can I visit your legs?
I won't need your insults or praise
Won't burn in your heart
Don't worry your head
Yeah if you don't want a soul mate
I'm your soul today
Sleeping on the road that takes you home
Howling at the moon at midnight
I want the wrong that sets you right
I'll be praying at your bedside
How long I've been a soul in the gutter
Can I visit your arms
Can I visit your legs
I won't need your insults or praise
Won't burn in your heart
Don't worry your head
Yeah if you don't want a soul mate
Can I visit your arms?
Can i visit your legs?
I won't need your insults or praise
Won't burn in your heart
Don't worry your head
Yeah if you don't want a soul mate
I'm your soul today
Your soul today
Howling at the moon at midnight
I want the wrong that sets you right
I'll be praying at your bedside
How long i've been a soul in the gutter
I don't have a home or a mother or anywhere to lay my head down
Can I visit your arms?
Can i visit your legs?
I won't need your insults or praise
Won't burn in your heart
Don't worry your head
Yeah if you don't want a soul mate
I'm your soul today
Hanging on a rope from a burning tree
Singing on a broken headstone
Bleeding from an old wound
Swimming in the fever
Waiting for a ressurection
I know it's a miracle I've lived this long
I don't want to give the wrong impression
But I've come so far
Can I visit your arms?
Can I visit your legs?
I won't need your insults or praise
Won't burn in your heart
Don't worry your head
Yeah if you don't want a soul mate
I'm your soul today
Sleeping on the road that takes you home
Howling at the moon at midnight
I want the wrong that sets you right
I'll be praying at your bedside
How long I've been a soul in the gutter
Can I visit your arms
Can I visit your legs
I won't need your insults or praise
Won't burn in your heart
Don't worry your head
Yeah if you don't want a soul mate
Can I visit your arms?
Can i visit your legs?
I won't need your insults or praise
Won't burn in your heart
Don't worry your head
Yeah if you don't want a soul mate
I'm your soul today
Your soul today
Finally Forever lyrisc - Chris Cornell
On the silent night so out of place
I almost lost my nerve
When I saw you walk into my space
A woman like you I could not replace
And it took some patience to catch your eye
Patience to win your heart
Now it feels like I don't have to worry at all
It's finally forever
There's no hill I would not climb for you
No bridge I wouldn't cross
Not a moment passes in my life
That you're not on my mind
Together or apart
And it took some patience to catch your eye
Patience to win your heart
Now it feels like I don't have to worry at all
It's finally forever
Anytime you're lost
Anywhere you're found
Anytime you want
I will be around
Anywhere you seek
Anywhere you stand
Anytime you fall
Anywhere you limp
Even if you break
Anytime I can I will be there for you
I know that you'll understand
You'll understand
Now I never would have imagined this
So I thank my lucky stars
As I see you in your wedding dress
Never would have guessed you'd fill my open arms
And it took some patience to catch your eye
Patience to win your heart
Now it feels like I don't have to worry at all
Yeah it feels like I don't have to worry at all
Yeah it feels like I don't have to worry at all
It's finally forever
Finally forever
I almost lost my nerve
When I saw you walk into my space
A woman like you I could not replace
And it took some patience to catch your eye
Patience to win your heart
Now it feels like I don't have to worry at all
It's finally forever
There's no hill I would not climb for you
No bridge I wouldn't cross
Not a moment passes in my life
That you're not on my mind
Together or apart
And it took some patience to catch your eye
Patience to win your heart
Now it feels like I don't have to worry at all
It's finally forever
Anytime you're lost
Anywhere you're found
Anytime you want
I will be around
Anywhere you seek
Anywhere you stand
Anytime you fall
Anywhere you limp
Even if you break
Anytime I can I will be there for you
I know that you'll understand
You'll understand
Now I never would have imagined this
So I thank my lucky stars
As I see you in your wedding dress
Never would have guessed you'd fill my open arms
And it took some patience to catch your eye
Patience to win your heart
Now it feels like I don't have to worry at all
Yeah it feels like I don't have to worry at all
Yeah it feels like I don't have to worry at all
It's finally forever
Finally forever
Silence The Voices lyrics - Chris Cornell
There the soldiers, in the sunlight
Kill the center of a man in endless suicide
By the night light, in foreing sky
Is a holstered, bridled child spinning 'round the flame?
Each is loved now or remembered
By the mask they wore years before the future
And the horse falls in the smoke filled riot
The center of a child grows in new disguise
Where are the songs from the sane minds?
And where are words from the sound mouths?
I can't understand how they silence the voices
It's a new day, in the old life
He looks healthy with a tan on the white sheath
Across the table, where the blood dries
Where infinity will greet these earthly confines
Where are the songs from the sane minds?
And where are words from the sound mouths?
I can't understand how they silence the voices
That say no
That say no
It's a new day, in the old life
In the silence of the absence
Where are the songs from the same minds?
And where are words from the sound mouths?
I can't understand how they silence the voices
That say no
I can't understand how they silence the voices
Kill the center of a man in endless suicide
By the night light, in foreing sky
Is a holstered, bridled child spinning 'round the flame?
Each is loved now or remembered
By the mask they wore years before the future
And the horse falls in the smoke filled riot
The center of a child grows in new disguise
Where are the songs from the sane minds?
And where are words from the sound mouths?
I can't understand how they silence the voices
It's a new day, in the old life
He looks healthy with a tan on the white sheath
Across the table, where the blood dries
Where infinity will greet these earthly confines
Where are the songs from the sane minds?
And where are words from the sound mouths?
I can't understand how they silence the voices
That say no
That say no
It's a new day, in the old life
In the silence of the absence
Where are the songs from the same minds?
And where are words from the sound mouths?
I can't understand how they silence the voices
That say no
I can't understand how they silence the voices
Disappearing Act lyrics - Chris Cornell
Come on now, the curtain is drawn
And tomorrow stands before you
Dressed and draped in a coal black cape
Like a crow, he ignores you
Look again, there's a beautiful girl
Covered cinnamon a Holy land smile
It's the great disappearing act
Done once again for tomorrow
As we're chasing our tails
Biting our nails
So strong and frail
And we build and tear down
Build and tear down
Build and tear down
We've run out of time to say
How did it get so late
I'll never know
Step outside, now the door's open wide
And the minons are eager to find him
Put a million miles under your heels
And you're still behind him
Cover your clocks with your chains and your locks
While the seasons get hotter and colder
Stretch your faces and lie about your ages
And still we're gonna get older
As we're chasing our tails
Biting our nails
So strong and frail
And we build and tear down
Build and tear down
Build and tear down
We've run out of time to say
How did it get so late
I'll never know
I'll never know
Hang onto your fingers
Making your hands unwind
He will escape you every time
From under your pillows
Through open windows and lie in open willows
And we build and tear down
Build and tear down
Build and tear down
We've run out of time to say
How did it get so late
I'll never know
I'll never know
I'll never know
And tomorrow stands before you
Dressed and draped in a coal black cape
Like a crow, he ignores you
Look again, there's a beautiful girl
Covered cinnamon a Holy land smile
It's the great disappearing act
Done once again for tomorrow
As we're chasing our tails
Biting our nails
So strong and frail
And we build and tear down
Build and tear down
Build and tear down
We've run out of time to say
How did it get so late
I'll never know
Step outside, now the door's open wide
And the minons are eager to find him
Put a million miles under your heels
And you're still behind him
Cover your clocks with your chains and your locks
While the seasons get hotter and colder
Stretch your faces and lie about your ages
And still we're gonna get older
As we're chasing our tails
Biting our nails
So strong and frail
And we build and tear down
Build and tear down
Build and tear down
We've run out of time to say
How did it get so late
I'll never know
I'll never know
Hang onto your fingers
Making your hands unwind
He will escape you every time
From under your pillows
Through open windows and lie in open willows
And we build and tear down
Build and tear down
Build and tear down
We've run out of time to say
How did it get so late
I'll never know
I'll never know
I'll never know
You Know My Name lyrics - Chris Cornell
If you take a life, do you know what you'll give
Odds are, you won't like what it is
When the storm arrives, would you be seen with me
By the merciless eyes I've deceived
I've seen angels fall from blinding heights
But you yourself are nothing so divine
Just next in line
Arm yourself because no-one else here will save you
The odds will betray you
And I will replace you
You can't deny the prize; it may never fulfill you
It longs to kill you
Are you willing to die
The coldest blood runs through my veins
You know my name
If you come inside, things will not be the same
When you return to my night
If you think you've won
You never saw me change
The game that we have been playing
I've seen diamonds cut through harder men
Than you yourself
but if you must pretend
You may meet your end
Arm yourself because no-one else here will save you
The odds will betray you
And I will replace you
You can't deny the prize; it may never fulfill you
It longs to kill you
Are you willing to die
The coldest blood runs through my veins
Try to hide your hand
Forget how to feel
(Forget how to feel)
Life is gone with just a spin of the wheel
(A spin of the wheel)
Arm yourself because no-one else here will save you
The odds will betray you
And I will replace you
You can't deny the prize; it may never fulfill you
It longs to kill you
Are you willing to die
The coldest blood runs through my veins
You know my name
(You know my name)
You know my name
(You know my name)
you know my name!
You know my name!
You know my name!
Odds are, you won't like what it is
When the storm arrives, would you be seen with me
By the merciless eyes I've deceived
I've seen angels fall from blinding heights
But you yourself are nothing so divine
Just next in line
Arm yourself because no-one else here will save you
The odds will betray you
And I will replace you
You can't deny the prize; it may never fulfill you
It longs to kill you
Are you willing to die
The coldest blood runs through my veins
You know my name
If you come inside, things will not be the same
When you return to my night
If you think you've won
You never saw me change
The game that we have been playing
I've seen diamonds cut through harder men
Than you yourself
but if you must pretend
You may meet your end
Arm yourself because no-one else here will save you
The odds will betray you
And I will replace you
You can't deny the prize; it may never fulfill you
It longs to kill you
Are you willing to die
The coldest blood runs through my veins
Try to hide your hand
Forget how to feel
(Forget how to feel)
Life is gone with just a spin of the wheel
(A spin of the wheel)
Arm yourself because no-one else here will save you
The odds will betray you
And I will replace you
You can't deny the prize; it may never fulfill you
It longs to kill you
Are you willing to die
The coldest blood runs through my veins
You know my name
(You know my name)
You know my name
(You know my name)
you know my name!
You know my name!
You know my name!
Today lyrics - Chris Cornell
I have an injury
It's there for all to see
They pay to watch as the blood pours out
And it's my priviledge
Cause I'm in danger
Yeah I'm in danger
Yeah I'm in danger
Of losing my mind
The fasination lives
Inside the world that spins
Around the scene of the accident
And they're most interested
When you're in danger
When you're in danger
When you're in danger
Of losing your mind
Of losing your mind
When I walk along the street
I see you all who know your sanity
Is hanging by a thread
I went to church today
To pray it all away
I watched the meek pass the hat around
But I'd already paid
Cause I'm in danger
Yeah I'm in danger
Yeah i'm in danger
Of losing my mind
Of losing my mind
Losing my mind
Losing my mind
It's there for all to see
They pay to watch as the blood pours out
And it's my priviledge
Cause I'm in danger
Yeah I'm in danger
Yeah I'm in danger
Of losing my mind
The fasination lives
Inside the world that spins
Around the scene of the accident
And they're most interested
When you're in danger
When you're in danger
When you're in danger
Of losing your mind
Of losing your mind
When I walk along the street
I see you all who know your sanity
Is hanging by a thread
I went to church today
To pray it all away
I watched the meek pass the hat around
But I'd already paid
Cause I'm in danger
Yeah I'm in danger
Yeah i'm in danger
Of losing my mind
Of losing my mind
Losing my mind
Losing my mind
Roads We Choose lyrics - Chris Cornell
Whenever I'm hurt, you are my nurse
You stand beside me through all seasons
You clean up my face, you fill up my space
With white linen and syringes
Out on the road you carry my load
Make it lighter when I feel weak
And when i am blind you crawl in my mind
And make me wiser than I could ever be alone
I know it ain't easy
I know it's getting harder for you
I know it ain't easy
But these are the roads that we choose
When I make a mess you wash and you dress me
When I'm wired you talk me down
When I'm a fool you're calm and you're cool
I never want for anything when you're around
When I'm in your bed, all you ever do
Is treat me with respect, but I don't know how
I know It ain't easy
Yes, I know it's getting harder for you
I know it ain't easy
But these are the roads that we choose
Though I've made some big mistakes
You don't complain at all
Even when you come and find me
Crying like a baby
Standing up in the bathtub
Whenever I'm hurt, you are my nurse
You stand beside me through all seasons
You're patient when I'm slow, warm when I'm cold
You're everything I'm not, you know everything I don't
I know it ain't easy
I know it's getting harder for you
I know it ain't easy
But these are the roads that we choose
These are the roads that we choose
These are the roads that we choose
You stand beside me through all seasons
You clean up my face, you fill up my space
With white linen and syringes
Out on the road you carry my load
Make it lighter when I feel weak
And when i am blind you crawl in my mind
And make me wiser than I could ever be alone
I know it ain't easy
I know it's getting harder for you
I know it ain't easy
But these are the roads that we choose
When I make a mess you wash and you dress me
When I'm wired you talk me down
When I'm a fool you're calm and you're cool
I never want for anything when you're around
When I'm in your bed, all you ever do
Is treat me with respect, but I don't know how
I know It ain't easy
Yes, I know it's getting harder for you
I know it ain't easy
But these are the roads that we choose
Though I've made some big mistakes
You don't complain at all
Even when you come and find me
Crying like a baby
Standing up in the bathtub
Whenever I'm hurt, you are my nurse
You stand beside me through all seasons
You're patient when I'm slow, warm when I'm cold
You're everything I'm not, you know everything I don't
I know it ain't easy
I know it's getting harder for you
I know it ain't easy
But these are the roads that we choose
These are the roads that we choose
These are the roads that we choose
Call Me A Dog lyrics - Chris Cornell
(originally by Temple Of The Dog)
You call me a dog well thats fair enough
cause it aint no use to pretend
Youre wrong
When you call me out I cant hide anymore
I have no disguise you cant see through
Well you say its bad luck
To have fallen for me
Well what can I say to make it good for you
You wore me out like an old winter coat
Trying to be safe from the cold
But when its my time to throw
The next stone
Ill call you beautiful if I call at all
You tell me Im low cause Ive slept on the floor
And out in the woods with the badgers & wolves
You threw me out cause I went digging for gold
And I came home with a handful of coal
But when its my time to throw the next stone
Ill call you beautiful if I call at all
And when its my time to call your bluff
Ill call you beautiful or leave it alone
You call me a dog
Well thats fair enough
It doesnt bother me as long as you know
Bad luck will follow you
If you keep me on a leash and
You drag me along
You call me a dog well thats fair enough
cause it aint no use to pretend
Youre wrong
When you call me out I cant hide anymore
I have no disguise you cant see through
Well you say its bad luck
To have fallen for me
Well what can I say to make it good for you
You wore me out like an old winter coat
Trying to be safe from the cold
But when its my time to throw
The next stone
Ill call you beautiful if I call at all
You tell me Im low cause Ive slept on the floor
And out in the woods with the badgers & wolves
You threw me out cause I went digging for gold
And I came home with a handful of coal
But when its my time to throw the next stone
Ill call you beautiful if I call at all
And when its my time to call your bluff
Ill call you beautiful or leave it alone
You call me a dog
Well thats fair enough
It doesnt bother me as long as you know
Bad luck will follow you
If you keep me on a leash and
You drag me along
Thank You lyrics - Chris Cornell
(originally by Led Zeppelin)
If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.
Kind woman, I give you my all, Kind woman, nothing more.
Little drops of rain whisper of the pain, tears of loves lost in the days gone by.
My love is strong, with you there is no wrong,
Together we shall go until we die. My, my, my.
An inspiration is what you are to me, inspiration, look... see.
And so today, my world it smiles, your hand in mine, we walk the miles,
Thanks to you it will be done, for you to me are the only one.
Happiness, no more be sad, happiness....I'm glad.
Little drops of rain whisper of the pain, tears of loves lost in the days gone by.
My love is strong, with you there is no wrong,
Together we shall go until we die.
If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.
If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.
Kind woman, I give you my all, Kind woman, nothing more.
Little drops of rain whisper of the pain, tears of loves lost in the days gone by.
My love is strong, with you there is no wrong,
Together we shall go until we die. My, my, my.
An inspiration is what you are to me, inspiration, look... see.
And so today, my world it smiles, your hand in mine, we walk the miles,
Thanks to you it will be done, for you to me are the only one.
Happiness, no more be sad, happiness....I'm glad.
Little drops of rain whisper of the pain, tears of loves lost in the days gone by.
My love is strong, with you there is no wrong,
Together we shall go until we die.
If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.
Can't Change Me lyrics - Chris Cornell
She can do anything at all
Have anything she pleases
The power to change what she thinks is wrong
But what could she want with me? Yeah,
Wait, just, one minute here
I can see that she's trying to read me
Suddenly I know,
[Chorus]
She's going to change the world [x3]
But she can't change me,
No, she can't change me
She has the daylight at her command
She gives the night it's dreams, yeah
She can uncover your darkest fear,
and make you forget you feel it.
But wait, just, one minute more,
I can see that she's trying to free me
Suddenly I know
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Suddenly I can see everything that's wrong,
With me, yeah.
What can I do, I'm the only thing I really have, at all.
But wait, just, one minute here,
I can see that she's trying to need me
Suddenly I know
[Chorus]
Have anything she pleases
The power to change what she thinks is wrong
But what could she want with me? Yeah,
Wait, just, one minute here
I can see that she's trying to read me
Suddenly I know,
[Chorus]
She's going to change the world [x3]
But she can't change me,
No, she can't change me
She has the daylight at her command
She gives the night it's dreams, yeah
She can uncover your darkest fear,
and make you forget you feel it.
But wait, just, one minute more,
I can see that she's trying to free me
Suddenly I know
[Chorus]

Suddenly I can see everything that's wrong,
With me, yeah.
What can I do, I'm the only thing I really have, at all.
But wait, just, one minute here,

Suddenly I know

Flutter Girl lyrics - Chris Cornell
I'm drinking dust,
with eyes of rust,
tonight my tears might stain your wings,
so flutter home,
cause you're better off alone,
than with me...
[chorus]
Flutter girl,
you don't wanna know what I live,
you don't wanna take what I give,
cause I give nothing for free
My hands are rough,
my fingers cold,
and your heart's so young and so naive,
to ever feel,
for a moment that I might dare,
to believe...
[chorus]
[bridge]
I'll tear your wings,
as I melt in your smile,
as I run all your colors away...
[chorus]
with eyes of rust,
tonight my tears might stain your wings,
so flutter home,
cause you're better off alone,
than with me...
[chorus]
Flutter girl,
you don't wanna know what I live,
you don't wanna take what I give,
cause I give nothing for free
My hands are rough,
my fingers cold,
and your heart's so young and so naive,
to ever feel,
for a moment that I might dare,
to believe...
[chorus]
[bridge]
I'll tear your wings,
as I melt in your smile,
as I run all your colors away...

Preaching The End Of The World lyrics - Chris Cornell
Hello, I know there's someone out there,
who can understand, and whose feeling,
the same way as me.
I'm 24, and I've got everything to live for,
but I know now, that it wasn't meant to be.
Cause all has been lost and,
all has been won,
and there's nothing left for us to save.
But now I know that I don't wanna be alone today,
so if you're finding, that you're feeling just the same...
[chorus]
Call me now it's alright,
It's just the end of the world.
You need a friend in the world,
cause you can't hide.
So call and I'll get right back,
if your intentions are pure,
I'm seeking a friend, for the end, of the world.
I've got a photograph I send it off today,
you will see that, I am perfectly sane.
Not for a lifetime or forever any day,
cause we know now, that just won't be the case.
[chorus]
[bridge]
With no commitment and no confessions and,
no little secrets to keep.
No little children or,
houses with roses,
just the end of the world and me.
Cause all has been gone and, all has been done,
and there's nothing left for us to say.
But we could be together as they blow it all away
and we could share in every moment as it breaks.
[chorus]
who can understand, and whose feeling,
the same way as me.
I'm 24, and I've got everything to live for,
but I know now, that it wasn't meant to be.
Cause all has been lost and,
all has been won,
and there's nothing left for us to save.
But now I know that I don't wanna be alone today,
so if you're finding, that you're feeling just the same...
[chorus]
Call me now it's alright,
It's just the end of the world.
You need a friend in the world,
cause you can't hide.
So call and I'll get right back,
if your intentions are pure,
I'm seeking a friend, for the end, of the world.
I've got a photograph I send it off today,
you will see that, I am perfectly sane.
Not for a lifetime or forever any day,
cause we know now, that just won't be the case.

and there's nothing left for us to say.
But we could be together as they blow it all away
and we could share in every moment as it breaks.

Follow My Way lyrics - Chris Cornell
Little one don't be a fool,
I'm a wreck when I look mighty.
In Euphoria I'm bruised,
In confusion next I'm lightning.
In complacence I am small,
through oblivion I'm charged.
[chorus]
So follow my way,
when I'm not leading anyone.
Open and frayed,
when you can see that I'm unsure.
Out on my way,
I'm only pure when I get lost,
and you're only needing when you're finding that I'm not...
You're just looking for a boy,
bathed in infrared and sunlight.
I'm all polish and reward,
when I'm confidant I hopeless.
Just like everybody else,
right before they fall apart.
[chorus, different from the 1st]
So follow my way,
when I am falling from your heart.
When I'm the pain,
fever and sweet relief in one.
Out on my way,
though I'm not worthy of your trust.
Follow me down into a swan dive,
all eyes closed tight...
[bridge]
Lowly, slowly, now I know I love where you go when you're gone...
Warm your hands inside my veins,
I might be contagious,
through oblivion I charge.
[chorus]
So follow my my way,
when I am useless to your cause.
When I derail,
calm in the patience of remorse.
Out on my way,
Out on my empty open nerves.
When all you know is that I don't know where we are.
When all you know is that I don't know,
Follow my way...
I'm a wreck when I look mighty.
In Euphoria I'm bruised,
In confusion next I'm lightning.
In complacence I am small,
through oblivion I'm charged.
[chorus]
So follow my way,
when I'm not leading anyone.
Open and frayed,
when you can see that I'm unsure.
Out on my way,
I'm only pure when I get lost,
and you're only needing when you're finding that I'm not...
You're just looking for a boy,
bathed in infrared and sunlight.
I'm all polish and reward,
when I'm confidant I hopeless.
Just like everybody else,
right before they fall apart.
[chorus, different from the 1st]
So follow my way,
when I am falling from your heart.
When I'm the pain,
fever and sweet relief in one.
Out on my way,
though I'm not worthy of your trust.
Follow me down into a swan dive,
all eyes closed tight...
[bridge]
Lowly, slowly, now I know I love where you go when you're gone...
Warm your hands inside my veins,
I might be contagious,
through oblivion I charge.
[chorus]
So follow my my way,
when I am useless to your cause.
When I derail,
calm in the patience of remorse.
Out on my way,
Out on my empty open nerves.
When all you know is that I don't know where we are.
When all you know is that I don't know,
Follow my way...
When I'm Down lyrics - Chris Cornell
What say you now?
The door is, opening,
on your vigil,
and I'm in my usual way.
I'll save my breath, knowing,
what you're wanting me to say,
"I only love you, when I'm down"
You say that midnight,
opens it's song for me,
leaving you alone,
and then I fly so far away,
until the light blurs my vision,
and I have nowhere to roam,
I only love you when I'm down...
[chorus]
And I only love you when I'm down.
And I'm only near you when I'm gone.
But one thing for you to keep in mind, you know,
that I'm down, all the time,
all the time...
[bridge]
I know you're reaching out,
and you need to feel my hand,
you wanna be loved,
yeah, well I understand.
I know you hold,
precious little hope for me,
and in your happiness,
I'm always drowning in my grief.
[chorus]
The door is, opening,

Mission lyrics - Chris Cornell
Pulled through you and drowning in your swirl.
Circling, unfolding in your will.
I'm gonna glide on the winds of your breathing,
and alight on your gaurded heart,
I'm gonna tear all your temples down...
[chorus]
I'm on a mission now, [x2]
Smoldering down inside your mood.
Slithering, and fanning in your eyes.
I'm gonna dive through your crying and sleep in your hair,
Rise from your ashes and kneel in your prayers,
tear all your temples down...
[chorus, x2]
[bridge]
I have nothing but then, the have is not as good as the want...
I'm gonna glide on the winds of your breathing.
Writhe in your calm and provide your release.
And reside in the heart of your strongest beliefs.
Tear all your temples down...
I'm on a mission now [x4]
And I have nothing, but then the have is not as good as the want...
Circling, unfolding in your will.
I'm gonna glide on the winds of your breathing,
and alight on your gaurded heart,
I'm gonna tear all your temples down...
[chorus]
I'm on a mission now, [x2]
Smoldering down inside your mood.
Slithering, and fanning in your eyes.
I'm gonna dive through your crying and sleep in your hair,
Rise from your ashes and kneel in your prayers,
tear all your temples down...
[chorus, x2]
[bridge]
I have nothing but then, the have is not as good as the want...
I'm gonna glide on the winds of your breathing.
Writhe in your calm and provide your release.
And reside in the heart of your strongest beliefs.
Tear all your temples down...
I'm on a mission now [x4]
And I have nothing, but then the have is not as good as the want...
Wave Goodbye lyrics - Chris Cornell
Words get tangled on you tongue,
and you stumble on your feet -
when you miss somebody.
And everywhere you think you see them,
walking down the street -
when you miss somebody.
When you miss somebody,
you tell yourself a hundred thousand times,
"Nobody ever lives forever,"
so you give it one more try:
To wave goodbye, wave goodbye...
Every hurtful thing you ever said is ringing in your ear,
when you miss somebody.
And every thing of beauty that you see -
it only brings a tear,
when you miss somebody.
Yeah, when you miss somebody,
you tell yourself that everything will be alright.
You try to stand up strong and brave,
but all you wanna do, is lay down and die.
[bridge]
How long I've waited for an answer or a sign...
Lonley and weary from this troubles task of trying,
to wave goodbye.
So now you start to recognize that every single path you see,
leads to a tear in your eye.
So wave goodbye...
Wave goodbye.
and you stumble on your feet -
when you miss somebody.
And everywhere you think you see them,
walking down the street -
when you miss somebody.
When you miss somebody,
you tell yourself a hundred thousand times,
"Nobody ever lives forever,"
so you give it one more try:
To wave goodbye, wave goodbye...
Every hurtful thing you ever said is ringing in your ear,
when you miss somebody.
And every thing of beauty that you see -
it only brings a tear,
when you miss somebody.
Yeah, when you miss somebody,
you tell yourself that everything will be alright.
You try to stand up strong and brave,
but all you wanna do, is lay down and die.
[bridge]
How long I've waited for an answer or a sign...
Lonley and weary from this troubles task of trying,
to wave goodbye.
So now you start to recognize that every single path you see,
leads to a tear in your eye.
So wave goodbye...
Wave goodbye.
