Soundgarden - The Day I Tried To Live

Soundgarden - The Day I Tried to Live Lyrics

Artist: Soundgarden

Album: Superunknown

Genre: Rock

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, 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

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, the day I tried

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
I learned that I was a liar
I learned that I was a liar
I learned that I was a liar

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, live just like you

Just like you
One more time around
One more time around
