Nuttshell -- AIC

We chase misprinted lies
We face the path of time
And yet I fight
And yet I fight
This battle all alone
No one to cry to
No place to call home

Oooh...Oooh...
Oooh...Oooh...

My gift of self is raped
My privacy is raked
And yet I find
And yet I find
Repeating in my head
If I can't be my own
I'd feel better dead

Oooh...Oooh...
Oooh...Oooh...

09. BREAKING THE HABIT (3:16) LP
Memories consume
Like opening the wound
I’m picking me apart again
You all assume
I’m safe, here in my room
Unless I try to start again

I don’t want to be the one the battles always choose
‘Cause inside, I realize that I’m the one confused

I don’t know what’s worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don’t know why I instigate
And say what I don’t mean
I don’t know how I got this way
I know it’s not all right
So I’m breaking the habit
I’m breaking the habit tonight

Clutching my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I hurt much more
Than any time before
I had no options left again

I don’t want to be the one the battles always choose
‘Cause inside, I realize that I’m the one confused

I don’t know what’s worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don’t know why I instigate
And say what I don’t mean
I don’t know how I got this way
I’ll never be all right
So I’m breaking the habit
I’m breaking the habit tonight

I’ll paint it on the walls
‘Cause I’m the one at fault
I’ll never fight again
And this is how it ends

I don’t know what’s worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
But now I have some clarity
To show you what I mean
I don’t know how I got this way
I’ll never be all right
So I’m breaking the habit
I’m breaking the habit
I’m breaking the habit tonight

[Raven]

13. NUMB (3:09) LP again
I’m tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless
Lost under the surface
Don’t know what you’re expecting of me
Put under the pressure
Of walking in your shoes

(Caught in the undertow, we’re just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow, we’re just caught in the undertow)

I’ve become so numb
I can’t feel you there
Become so tired
So much more aware
I’m becoming this
All I want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you

Can’t you see that you’re smothering me?
Holding too tightly
Afraid to lose control
‘Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart
Right in front of you

(Caught in the undertow, we’re just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow, we’re just caught in the undertow)
And every second I waste is more than I can take

I’ve become so numb
I can’t feel you there
Become so tired
So much more aware
I’m becoming this
All I want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you

And I know
I may end up failing too
But I know
You were just like me, with someone disappointed in you

I’ve become so numb
I can’t feel you there
Become so tired
So much more aware
I’m becoming this
All I want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you

I’ve become so numb
I can’t feel you there
(I’m tired of being what you want me to be)
I’ve become so numb
I can’t feel you there
(I’m tired of being what you want me to be)

NOD SCENE
...

Bought another copy of fragile
Seeds were bustin' up the spine
I think I cracked my skull doin' airplanes
Not too many but it's just fine
Pussy scratching sniff in a playboy
Christ i'm a good looking man

Fifteen miles to cop on a stingrays
Boys will gonna ride tonight
Goofball's in the 70's nipples
Gotta get our heads just right
Sit me on the lap of the god's babe
Cover me with skin and hair

Bought another copy of zoso
Seeds were bustin' up the spine
I think i wet my pants doin' whiphits
Not too many but it's just fine
Sit me on the lap of the god's babe
Cover me with skin and hair
Ride a number one on the home train
Screw you if you think i can't ......... smoke

SEE YOU IN HELL
...

1st Verse :
Our little room on 7th street is getting cold
And secrets ain't like mescaline, they don't get old
I saw a pattern on a blanket just the other day
It looked just like the pillow you threw away

2nd Verse :
You were like a zombie when you told me what you did that day
And I drove out to the Meadowlands, to throw our baby away
Time and snow couldn't bury, years of forgotten guilt
Now little Boby's calling,
risin' up from under a Jersey landfill

1st Chorus
I just woke up the other night, now I know what to do
I guess I'll see you in hell

3rd Verse :
The creature's waiting for a battle in an ancient swamp
You pissing on the pyramid
Aint gonna move things along
So pack your scars and your make-up
And give your money to the poor
'Cause you'll been riding a twenty gauge ticket in through reality's door
2nd Chorus
I just woke up the other night
and now I know what to do
I just woke up the other night, girl
And now I know what to do
I guess I'll see you in hell

Break
Our t.v.'s gone and you've been huffing our pay
And your punkrock band still sucks anyway
I was talking to Jezus through a hole in the floor
He said our time is up, we can't stay anymore, no more,
no more

1st Verse :
Our little room on 7th street is getting cold
And secrets ain't like mescaline, they don't get old
I saw a pattern on a blanket just the other day
It looked just like the pillow you threw away

2nd Chorus
I just woke up the other night
and now I know what to do
I just woke up the other night, girl
And now I know what to do
I guess I'll see you in hell

THIRD ALTERNATIVE
...

My hands up to the maker, my head's down in the bomb
I swim in bloated vision, and I kiss you on the phone
My heart beats so atomic, and I spill the sweat of drones
A mouth screams to a hundred,
and my lips split all alone

Sometimes I thing this pig will just explode
Sometimes I hope this torture just goes on
Well I'll stuff myself in a pit of darkness
And I'll slam 'till I can't see home

Would you like to hope for Eden,
that i keep a steady hand
Do you want to milk the syrup
of a thousand year old man
Shall we fuck each other's babies,
let momentum do it's best
Keep our shrieking little urges
in our burned out little heads
Well I sense a slight recoil, was it something that i said
Sometimes I think this pig will just explode
Sometimes I hope this torture goes on
Well I'll stuff myself in a pie of darkness
And I'll slam 'till I can't see home
Dropping off the edge of nowhere
Everything I've ever known

This is what you asked for, now this is what you'll get

Sometimes I think this pig will just explode
Sometimes I hope this torture just goes on
Well I'll stuff myself in a pit of darkness
And I'll slam 'till I can't see home
Dropping off the edge of nowhere
Everything I've ever known

Simple


It's a Tuesday night and I can't be
With the people that I love tonight
Left me alone and I can't forgive them
I guess I'll be on my own

I tried to see it their way
I tried to be alone
I tried to do my own thing
But the trouble with your own thing
Is you end up on your own

It's a Tuesday night and again I seem
To be on my own for the second night in a row
Simple lesson here is to try and find a friend
To try and find a friend
To try and find a friend

Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?

It's a Tuesday night and I can't be
With the people that I love tonight
Left me alone and I can't forgive them
I guess I'll be on my own

Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?

I tried to see it their way
I tried to be alone
I tried to do my own thing
But the trouble with your own thing
Is you end up on your own

You end up on your own
You end up on your own

God Lives Underwater

Someone Else



I try, I try.
But nothing happens.
Still wanna stay my mind.
I try, I try.
Won't someone change this pantomime?

I know what you showed me.
And then I showed myself.
Thats what made you leave me.
I became someone else.
Yeah!

I try, I try.
Won't something happen.
Still wanna clear my mind.
I try, I try.
Won't something change this pantomime?

I know what you showed me.
And then I showed myself.
Thats what made you leave me.
I became someone else.
Yeah!

"Believer"

When you're hurt you heal others.
When you're in need you give.
Because of you I am living the most that I can live.

Oh, sweet darling girl
I'm so glad you found me.
Oh, sweet darling girl
Your power surrounds me.

Remember me, don't forget me,
I have something true.
My path is dark, my steps uncertain, unless I walk
With you.

Oh, sweet darling girl
I'm so glad you found me.
Oh, sweet darling girl
Your power surrounds me.

Your power...surrounds me.

You speak to me without speaking.
You touch so I can feel.
With your strength I am stronger, at last I know I'm real.

Oh, sweet darling girl
I'm so glad you found me.
Oh, sweet darling girl
Your power surrounds me.

Your power...Oh...

Whoa... sweet darling girl
I'm so glad you found me.
I'm so glad that you found me, yeah you did
And your power surrounds me.

My Lovers Prayer

This is my lovers prayer
I hope it'll reach out to you, my love
This is my lovers prayer
And I hope you can understand it, my love

My life is such a weary thing
But In My Ears, Old Prayers Just Ring and Ring
You keep wanting, waiting and wishing
When I know deep down that I'm not to blame

What you gonna do tonight
When you need some loving arms to hold you tight
What you gonna do tonight
When you need my heavy voice to tell you good night

Honey but you can't let that be no problem
You ve got to come home and help me solve it
Then I won't be missing you
And honey, my lovers prayer would be all over

What can the matter be [now]?
It can't be to serious we can't talk it over
Living in this misery, darling
You can't make my life all over

Honey but don't you let that be no problem
Just come on home and help me solve it
[Dear] I won't be missing you
And my lovers prayer would be all over
It got to be all over
Honey all over
Don't keep my life going round so many circles

I won't be missing you
I won't be missing you
And my lovers prayer won't be all over

This is my lovers prayer
Come on y'all
This is my lovers prayer
And I hope it reaches out to you
This is my lovers prayer
I hope it gets to you

We 3
by Soul Asylum


I was tapping my foot on a Friday night
To my favorite band I was pushed aside
I said "hey don't push me no one pushes me"
When I was face to face with the woman I admired
And she gave me this look I could not believe
And the cold stare remained; I wanted to leave

See, I do believe anger is offset by sorrow
But you destroy today you might regret tomorrow
When you're young and defensive it comes off offensive
And it's hard to repay the tolerance that you borrowed
The lasting relationship sinks right off the pier
Who wears the pants; it's faded but clear

She's your girlfriend, seems she ain't too fond of me
I guess if that's the way it was meant to be
There we were, just we three
You, your girlfriend, and me

I've known you forever, you two just met
So easily amused; how fast we forget
In my jealously, my self-righteous greed
She's a bit like a book I'm too far sighted to read
And I wish you the best, I sometimes feel the need
To say remember me

She's your girlfriend, as far as we can see
Does she look at you the way she looks at me
And here we are, just we three
You, your girlfriend, and me

She's your girlfriend, it's getting harder to see
Better just take her home, better just let her be
When she walks out that door, you'll come looking for me
