You wired me awake
And hit me with a hand of broken nails
You tied my lead and pulled my chain
To watch my blood begin to boil..

But I'm gonna break
I'm gonna break my
I'm gonna break my rusty cage and run..

Too cold to start a fire
I'm burning diesel burning dinosaur bones
I'll take the river down to still water
And ride a pack of dogs..

I'm gonna break
I'm gonna break my
I'm gonna break my rusty cage and run..

Hits like a Phillips head into my brain
It's gonna be too dark to sleep again
Cutting my teeth on bars and rusty chains
I'm gonna break my rusty cage and run..

When the forest burns along the road
Like God's eyes in my headlights
When the dogs are looking for their bones
And it's raining icepicks on your steel shore..

I'm gonna break
I'm gonna break my
I'm gonna break my rusty cage and run...

Whatsoever I've feared has come to life
Whatsoever I've fought off became my life
Just when everyday seemed to greet me with a smile
Sunspots have faded and now I'm doing time
Now I'm doing time
'Cause I fell on black days
I fell on black days..

Whomsoever I've cured, I've sickened now
And whomsoever I've cradled, I've put you down
I'm a search light soul they say
But I can't see it in the night..

I'm only faking when I get it right
When I get it right..

'Cause I fell on black days
I fell on black days..

How would I know
That this could be my fate?
How would I know
That this could be my fate? Yeah..

Uh, uh, uh
Uh, uh, uh
Uh, uh, uh..

So what you wanted to see good
Has made you blind
And what you wanted to be yours
Has made it mine..

Don't you lock up something
That you wanted to see fly
Hands are for shaking
No, not tying, no, not tying..

I sure don't mind a change
I sure don't mind a change
Yeah, I sure don't mind, sure don't mind a change
I sure don't mind a change..

'Cause I fell on black days
I fell on black days..

How would I know
That this could be my fate?
How would I know
That this could be my fate?

How would I know
That this could be my fate?
How would I know
That this could be my fate?

I sure don't mind a change...

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 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
The day I tried to live..

Words would 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, live..

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 walled 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, live..

Just like you
Just like you
One more time around
One more time around...

In my eyes, indisposed
In disguises no one knows
Hides the face, lies the snake
The sun in my disgrace
Boiling heat, summer stench
'Neath the black the sky looks dead
Call my name through the cream
And I'll hear you scream again..

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come
Won't you come (won't you come)..

Stuttering, cold and damp
Steal the warm wind tired friend
Times are gone for honest men
And sometimes far too long for snakes
In my shoes, a walking sleep
And my youth I pray to keep
Heaven sent hell away
No one sings like you anymore..

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come
Won't you come..

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come
Won't you come (black hole sun, black hole sun)..

Won't you come (black hole sun, black hole sun)
Won't you come (black hole sun, black hole sun)
Won't you come (black hole sun, black hole sun)..

Hang my head, drown my fear
Till you all just disappear..

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come
Won't you come..

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come
Won't you come (black hole sun, black hole sun)
Won't you come (black hole sun, black hole sun)
Won't you come (black hole sun, black hole sun)
Won't you come (black hole sun, black hole sun)
Won't you come (black hole sun, black hole sun)
Won't you come (black hole sun, black hole sun)
Won't you come
Won't you come......
