Burden In My Hand - Soundgarden

Follow me into the desert

As thirsty as you are

Crack a smile and cut your mouth

And drown in alcohol

‘Cause down below the truth is lying

Beneath the riverbed

So quench yourself and drink the water

That flows below her head

Oh no there she goes

Out in the sunshine

the sun is mine

the sun is mine

(chorus)

I shot my love today would you cry for me I lost my head again would you lie for me Close your eyes and bow your head

I need a little sympathy

‘Cause fear is strong and love’s for everyone

Who isn’t me Kill your health and kill yourself

And kill everything you love

And if you live you can fall to pieces

And suffer with my ghost

(chorus)

I shot my love today would you cry for me I lost my head again would you lie for me I left her in the sand just a burden in my hand

I lost my head again would you cry for me Just a burden in my hand

Just an anchor on my heart

Just a tumor in my head

And I’m in the dark

So follow me into the desert

As desperate as you are

Where the moon is glued to a picture of heaven

And all the little pigs have God

Oh no there she goes

Out in the sunshine

the sun is mine

the sun is mine

(chorus)

I shot my love today would you cry for me I lost my head again would you lie for me I left her in the sand just a burden in my hand

I lost my head again would you cry for me yeah, would you cry for me
