The time is shorter in some way, let's say 2 years, and it's not like a snapshot or xerox but it comes close to what i see around me this instance....and is the song i'm earing even with the radio off...I try and feel the sunshine
You bring the rain
You try and hold me down
With your complaints
You cry and moan and complain
You whine an tear
Up to my neck in sorrow
The touch you bring
You just don't step inside to14 years
So hard to keep my own head...That's what I say
You know...I've been the beggar...
I've played the thief
I was the dog...
they all tried to beat
But it's been14 years of silence
It's been14 years of pain
It's been14 years that are gone forever
And I'll never have again
Your stupid girlfriends tell you
That I'm to blame
Well they're all used-up has-beens
Out of the game
This time I'll have the last word
You hear what I sayI tried to see it your way
It won't work today
You just don't step inside to14 years
So hard to keep my own head...
That's what I say
You know...I've been the dealer...
Hangin' on your street
I was the dog...they all tried to beat
But it's been14 years of silence
It's been14 years of pain
It's been14 years that are gone forever
And I'll never have again
Bullshit and contemplation
Gossip's their trade
If they knew half the real truth
What would they say
Well I'm past the point of concern
It's time to play
These last 4 years of madness
Sure put me straight
Don't get back 14 years
In just one day
So hard to keep my own head
Just go awayYou know...
just like a hooker she said
Nothin's for free
Oh I tried to see it your way
I tried to see it your way
lyrics for album Use Your Illusion Vol. 2, 14 years
