It Ain't Like That - Live 1992

Yeah

There I was, laid out on a table
Screaming, 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 dying nothin'

See the cycle I've waited for
It ain't like that anymore

Yeah

Where I go is where 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'm waiting for
It ain't like that anymore

Yeah

Here I sit, writin' on the paper
Tryin' to think of words you can't ignore

In my eyes, what I'm lackin'
Score at face, a ten for slackin'
Sign the deal, set in motion
Smaller the fish so huge the ocean

See the cycle I'm waiting for
It ain't like that anymore

See the cycle I've waited for
It ain't like that anymore

Yeah
