You remember the story of how we burned down the street
Looking for your tall dark lover, and something good to eat
Merry Christmas to you there's nothing left to change around
Except a couple ornaments and the silent screaming sound
Only raised on Chinese silk, something to complain about
Only raised on what was built, just to kiss you on the mouth
Tell the businessmen, to bite me
Tell the architects, to bite me
Tell the artists, to bite me
He would
Your mother and your father would never hurt you, you know
Now the only thing she's saying is "Let my baby go"
Only raised on Chinese silk something to complain about
Only raised on what was built, just to kiss you on the mouth
Tell the businessmen, to bite me
Tell the architects, to bite me
Tell the artists, to bite me
He would
He would

I was brought up to this mountain
Way before my family died
I took a few more relaxers, took a few more years found a bride
Well she was meaner than sin
but who could blame her then, with a husband like me
she looked over these people dancing while missiles flew
over all of our heads, killing my chances of dying with you
and if I couldn't do it then, how can I ever do it now
It's some enlightenment for me
I looked over these people, dancing while missiles flew
because she took a piece of me, she took a part from me and you
and if I couldn't do it then, how can I ever do it now
it's the best it's ever been for me
I was brought up to this mountain
While his heart was still
I gave up my right, it was never alright, never wanting to be healed
and if I couldn't do it then, how could I ever do it now
I'll be making out with your daughter and I'll figure it all out
I'll figure it all out
I'll figure it all out

field of love

I was working the graveyard shift
Just so I could come and sing this
I was doing all of this
Just to get my arms around you
Tell me baby is our love that true
I gotta hear it I need to hear it from you
I was so lonely living alone
You took me in and you gave me a home
and I gave my life away
I gave it all away
I want to go to heaven up above
But I can't cause I'm just a weed in your field of love
I couldn't write a pretty song to save my life
I couldn't write a happy song to get through the night
I was so lonely living alone
You took me in and you gave me a home
and I gave my life away
I gave it all away
I want to go to heaven up above
But I can't cause I'm just a fool for your love
I can't cause I'm just a weed in your field of love

You're feeling sick from your meds again
I'm feeling the sting in the shower from when
I cut my shins
I cut my shins
And I just want you to know
that all of this is for you
And I just want you to know
that all of this is for you
You're seeing different color reds again
I feel like jumping in the ocean
to swim away with gills and fins
to swim away with gills and fins
and I just want you to know
that all of this is for you
and I just want you to know
that all of this is for you
But these new set of pills is making me feel brand new
But these new set of pills is making me feel brand new
so hold my head against the wall
so hold my head against the wall
so hold my head against the wall
do it again do it again
you said you'd never return but you might come back
I'm just 19 years old wearing too much black
I want your bright blue eyes I want your smile back
I want your bones skin and fingernails at that
you said that it would be too much
you said that it would be too much
but I would give it all just to keep in touch
I would give it all just to keep in touch
I know that I'm not Cobain
I know that I'm not Cobain
but I would give it all just to soothe the pain
I'd give it all just to soothe the pain
You're feeling sick from your meds again
I'm feeling the sting in the shower from when
I cut my shins
