The Day I Tried to Live (LP version) - Soundgarden

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 beggars' change

And gave it to the rich

Yeah

The day I tried to win

I dangled from the power lines

And let the martyrs stretch, yeah

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

Might make it

The day I tried to live

Yeah

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

Yeah

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

Might make it

The day I tried to live

Yeah, I tried

I woke the same as any other day, you know

I should have stayed in bed, oh

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 (one more time around)

I learned that I was a liar (one more time around)

I learned that I was a liar (one more time around)

I learned that I was a liar (one more time around)

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

Might make it

The day I tried to live

Yeah

Just like you

Just like you

One more time around (one more time around)

One more time around (one more time around)
