Sea Of Sorrow

in AlbumFacelift

Mind, of destructive taste

I choose...to stroll amongst the waste

That was your heart

Lost in the dark

Call off the chase

Walls of thought, strong and high

As my castle crumbles with time...

I think of you

Oh, yes I do

Such a crime

[CHORUS]

You opened fire...and your mark was true

You opened fire...aim my smilin' skull at you

You opened fire...

I live tomorrow, you I'll not follow

As you wallow in a sea of sorrow

Lines cut across my face

Why you laugh at my disgrace

I'll never know

How far to go

To reach that place

[CHORUS]
