"Bring me down you try
Feel the pain and keep it all in till you die
Without eyes you cannot cry
Who’s to blame?
I can’t remember identity
The visions in my mind from screamin at me
And mama, mama, ooh,
My angry brains of infancy
Knocked down but I have enough hate to breathe
Down your throat and steal your energy
You took
everything but my will to be
Now the loss of your God won’t make me bleed"
-"I Can't Remember"
Alice In fucking Chains baby!!!
Layne rules ALL!!! (rip)
"I tried to love you I thought I could
I tried to own you I thought I would
I wanna peel the skin from your face
Before the real you lays to waste
You told me I’m the only one
Sweet
little angel you should have run
Lyin, cryin, dyin to leave
Innocence creates my hell
Cheated myself, still, you know more
It would be so easy with a whore
Try to
understand me
little girl
My twisted passion to be your world
Lost inside my sick head
I live for you but I’m not alive
Take my hands before I kill
I still love you, but I still burn"
-"Love, Hate, Love" (lyrics by: L. Staley, music by: J. Cantrell. album: Facelift)
