It Ain't Like That

Alice In Chains - Facelift

Yea!

There I was

laid out on a table

Screamin' sweat and bare feet to the floor

In my life

I'd not soften

Things that cut

and burn so often

But I sit

think of somethin'

Scared to face

the dyin' nothin'

See the cycle I've waited for

Ain't it like that anymore

Yea!

Where I go is when I feel I'm able

How I fight is why I'm feelin' sore

In my mind not forgotten

Feel as though

a tooth were rotten

Behind the smile

a tongue that's slippin'

Buzzards cry

when flesh is rippin'

See the cycle I've waited for

Ain't it like that anymore

A-ah-ah-ah-ah

Yea!

Here I sit writing on the paper

Trying to make up words you can't ignore

In my eyes

what I'm lacking

Score at face

a ten for slacking

Sign the deal

set in motion

Smaller fish

so huge the ocean

See the cycle I've waited for

Ain't it like that anymore

See the cycle I've waited for

Ain't it like that anymore
