Lyrics The Day I Tried to Live - 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, yeah
The day I tried to win
I dangled from the power lines
And let the martyrs stretch, yeah

Singing one more time around (I might do it)
One more time around (I might make it)
One more time around (I might do it)
One more time around (I might make it)
The day I tried to live, yeah

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, hey

Singing one more time around (might do it)
One more time around (might make it)
One more time around (I might do it)
One more time around (I might make it)
The day I tried to live, yeah
I tried

I woke the same as any other day you know
I should have stayed in bed
Eh-hey

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
I learned that I was a liar
I learned that I was a liar
I learned that I was a liar

Singing one more time around (might do it)
One more time around (I might make it)
One more time around (might do it)
One more time around (I might make it)
The day I tried to live, live
Just like you
Just like you

One more time around (one more time around)
One more time around (one more time around)
