AUDIOSLAVE LYRICS

Wide Awake - Audioslave
album: “Revelations” (2006)

You can a look a hurricane right in the eye
1200 people dead or left to die
Follow the leaders, we’re in an eye for an eye we’ll all be blind
Death for murder and this I’m sure in this uncertain time

So come pull the sheet over my eyes
So I can sleep tonight
Despite what I’ve seen today
I find you guilty of a crime, of sleeping at a time
When you should have been wide awake

Down on the road the world is floating by
The poor and undefended left behind
While you’re somewhere trading lives for oil
As if the whole world were blind, hey

So come pull the sheet over my eyes
So I can sleep tonight
Despite what I’ve seen today
I find you guilty of a crime of sleeping at a time
When you should have been wide awake

Come pull the sheet over my eyes
So I can sleep tonight
Despite what I’ve seen today
I find you guilty of a crime of sleeping at a time
When you should have been wide awake
Wide awake! Wide awake! Wide awake! Wide awake!

AUDIOSLAVE LYRICS

Broken City - Audioslave
album: “Revelations” (2006)

My city sleeps by the side of a freeway, the city scraps
And winter time she wore a yellow coat
Now there’s nothin’ on her back
If a building falls you wouldn’t care to notice unless you were in it
Then no one cares about climbin’ stairs, nothin’ at the top no more

Outside trippin’ in the broken city
Outside trippin’ in the broken city, I watch a building crack
Outside trippin’ in the broken city
Outside kickin’ in the broken city, there’s nothin’ wrong with that
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo

Now the snow falls down like it’s fallin’ on an ocean
Dead and empty by the railroad tracks where they used to go and come
Now they don’t come back
You can heal the rust, goin’ up the throughways
Down the alleys where they stole this town from the frontier
I can see ‘em tryin’ to steal it back

Outside trippin’ in the broken city (Outside trippin’ in the broken city)
Outside trippin’ in the broken city, I watch a building crack
Outside kickin’ in the broken city (Outside trippin’ in the broken city)
Outside trippin’ in the broken city, there’s nothin’ wrong with that
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo

Now the sun won’t shine on this part of the map
Anymore
When it’s cold outside I see it hide behind the smokestacks
No thin roses, no goldrush, no miner, no revolution they’d hire
And the shipyard is a graveyard, no one will be trying to find him

Outside trippin’ in the broken city (Outside trippin’ in the broken city)
Outside kickin’ in the broken city, I watch a building crack
Outside trippin’ in the broken city (Outside trippin’ in the broken city)
Outside kickin’ in the broken city, there’s nothin’ wrong with that
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo (There’s nothin’ wrong with that)
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo do (Outside trippin’ in the broken city)
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo

AUDIOSLAVE LYRICS

Jewel Of The Summertime - Audioslave
album: “Revelations” (2006)

When I was 18 I didn’t know pain when the sun was high
Burnt face, shadow’s erased and I knew I’d be alright
They tried to hurt me, uh-huh
Somethin’ blinded me, uh-huh
That reminded me, uh-huh
Of a better space and time, miles away

The jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summer-time
A jewel of the summertime
A jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summer-time

When I turned 21 I saw the sun pulling out of sight
All that I met were dark silhouette’s stumbling in the night
But we collided, uh-huh
In a ?, uh-huh
Got alot on me, uh-huh
Now I’m bathing in the bright of divided rays

Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summer-time
A jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summer-time
Time, time

I left that behind me, uh-huh
But somethin’ blinded me, uh-huh
You reminded me, uh-huh
Of a better space and time, miles away

Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
A jewel of the summer-time
A jewel of the summertime
A jewel of the summertime
A jewel of the summer-time
A jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
A jewel of the summer-time
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summer-time

AUDIOSLAVE LYRICS

Somedays - Audioslave
album: “Revelations” (2006)

Somedays, somedays, somedays just ain’t so easy

Wake up, look around just before you’re feet hit the ground
Where they make the oil and street, is where you stand and where you sleep
Black and whites along the lights, plain clothes and Miranda Rights
At the right place but in the wrong life, somedays just ain’t so easy

Somedays, somedays, somedays (Somedays) just ain’t so easy
Somedays, somedays, somedays (Somedays), somedays (Somedays)
Just ain’t so easy

It’s not the fault of anyone as we revolve around the sun
We sleep beneath the same sky but we all see it through different eyes
So if you go or if you stay, standin’ still or if you walk away
If you bend or if you break somedays just ain’t so easy

Somedays, somedays, somedays (Somedays) just ain’t so easy
Somedays, somedays, somedays (Somedays), somedays (Somedays)
Just ain’t so easy, they just ain’t so easy
Oh yeah

Nobody say it’s so easy, yeah
I don’t care for somedays

Someone may have done you right or done you wrong
Or kept it down from the day you were born
There’s no need to apologize for the riot in your eyes
Somedays just ain’t so easy
Hey! Hey! Hey!

Somedays, somedays, somedays (Somedays) just ain’t so easy
Somedays, somedays, somedays (Somedays), somedays (Somedays)
Just ain’t so easy

AUDIOSLAVE LYRICS

Nothing Left To Say But Goodbye - Audioslave
album: “Revelations” (2006)

Just like a rescue of a stray dog in the rain I was
Hungry when you found me
And you could tell by my tail and my rib cage what was
Once around me

I’ve been chased by a rain cloud
I was lost and nearly drowned and kicked around
But now I’m found and I won’t run away

Bless your heart you gave me a home and a new start
And I will leave you never
Sleep at your feet and stay guard at you’re front door
I will keep things together

I’ve been chased by a rain cloud
I was lost and nearly drowned and kicked around
But now I’m found and I won’t run away

I killed myself, threw away my mental health but nobody was blinking an eye
Backyard, basement, falling on the pavement
Nothing Left to Say But Goodbye
Nothing Left to Say But Goodbye

It’s true I ran away before but be sure
I am no tail-chaser
I know a good thing when it throws me a bone
I’m you’re best friend forever

I’ve been chased by a rain cloud
I was lost and nearly drowned and kicked around
But now I’m found and I won’t run away
