The Day I Tried To Live

Soundgarden 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 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
(Might make it)

The day I tried 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
(Might make it)

The day I tried to live

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
And I learned that I was a liar
And I learned that I was a liar
And 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
(Might make it)

The day I tried to live
Just like you

One more time around
One more time around
