soundgarden - the day i tried to live

i woke the same as any other day
except a voice was in my head
it said seize the day, pull the trigger
drop the blade, and watch the rolling heads

the day i tried to live
i stole a thousand beggar's change
and gave it to the rich

the day i tried to win
i dangled from the power lines
and let the martyrs stretch

singing one more time around might do it
one more time around might make it
one more time around might do it
one more time around
the day i tried to live

words you say never seem
to live up to the ones inside your head
the lives we make never seem
to ever get us anywhere but dead

the day i tried to live
i wallowed in the blood and mud with
all the other pigs

i woke the same as any other day
you know i should have stayed in bed

the day i tried to win
i wallowed in the blood and mud with
all the other pigs

and i learned that i was a liar (repeated a couple times)
just like you

pigface - i can do no wrong

take a look outside because I'm walking on glass
Thin ice in the future or a voice from the past
Forsaken dreams decaying in the four-way zone
Better look outside because I'm coming alone
Better look outside bevause I'm coming alone

How many nights before I sang an innocent song
Rejoicing in my ignorance, I could do no wrong
Take a look outside for the first time afraid
A tiny glass was shattered where one time we laid
A tiny glass was shattered where one time we laid

I can do no wrong!

So I trapped my emptiness between lie after lie
Poured myself another and started to cry
Shame on you for weakness go back where you belong
Poured my self another - I could do no wrong

I can do no wrong
