Written by chris cornell I know you're half awake yeah i know hate And i know how you do it Hold it don't it out Don't get it right or wrong no i don't get it I know you're afraid half amazed All insane i know it's all a cage And all arrange and altogether gone Cause you and me we're average With simple minds and lungs and eyes and skin You and me we're hopeless with nowhere hearts So tear it out and open it I'm giving blood tonight don't care how don't care why I'm giving blood tonight and i feel just like
I could give it all Show me and hand me down and hang me up alone And cold and bury me Show me and throw me out and hold me down And air me out and wear me I know you're half afraid half amazed all insane I know it's all a cage and all a rage And altogether gone Come away and come with me and come around and come and see And cover up and come along before race before the calm And he walks out and fires the gun happy with the things he won The head of god on the wall ahead of us the heads of us
