Soundgarden - Burden In My Hand Lyrics

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

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
The 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 ghosts

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

It's just a burden in my hand
It's just an anchor on my heart
It's just a tumor in my head
And I'm in the dark

So follow me into the desert
A desperate as you are
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

I shot my love today
Would you cry for me (yeah)
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
