ALICE IN CHAINS LYRICS
"Nona Tapes" (1995 Video/VHS)
1. Grind 2. Heaven Beside You 3. Brush Away 4. Over Now 5. Head Creeps
1. Grind
In the darkest hole
you'd be well advised
Not to plan my funeral before the
body dies, yeah
Come the morning light
it's a see through show
What you may have heard and
what you think you know, yeah
Let the sun never blind your eyes
Let me sleep so my teeth don't grind
Hear a sound from a voice inside
Sure to play a part
so you love the game
And in truth your lies
become one and same, yeah
I could set you free,
rather hear the sound
Of your body breaking
as I take you down, yeah
Let the sun never blind your eyes
Let me sleep so my teeth don't grind
Hear a sound from a voice inside
In the darkest hole
you'd be well advised
Not to plan my funeral
before the body dies, yeah
Let the sun never blind your eyes
Let me sleep so my teeth don't grind
Hear a sound from a voice inside
2. Heaven Beside You
Be what you wanna be
See what you came to see
Been what you wanna be
I don't like what I see
Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven beside you... Hell within
Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven beside you... Hell within
Like the coldest winter will
Put Heaven beside you
Hell within
And you think you have it still, heaven inside you
So there's problems in your life
That's fucked up
and I'm not blind
I'm just see-through
faded
super jaded
And out of my mind
Do what you wanna do
Go out and seek your truth
When I'm down and blue
Rather be me than you
Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven beside you... Hell within
Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven beside you... Hell within
Like the coldest winter will
Heaven beside you... Hell within
And you wish you had it still, heaven inside you
So there's problems in your life
That's fucked up
and I'm not blind
I'm just see-through
faded
overrated
super jaded
And out of my mind
Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven beside you... Hell within
Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven beside you... Hell within
Like the coldest winter will
Heaven beside you... Hell within
And you know you have it still, heaven inside you
3. Brush Away
I could use some
time to curl away
My aggression
is where you stake
your claim
Why I question
this curve on which you grade
My conception
a joke or latest craze?
I try to get away
and yet I stick around
So fall and crawl away
and brush away loose ground
My intention
Can I arrive at eight?
Lie and dream some
Surprise you guys I'm late
All right, correction, forgetting something
Wait
I try to get away
and yet I stick around
So fall and crawl away
and brush away loose ground
Brush away loose ground
Brush away loose ground
4. Over Now
Yeah, it's over now
but I can breathe somehow
When it's all worn out
I'd rather go without
You know its been on my mind
Could you stand right there
Look me straight in the eye and say
That it's over now
We pay our debt sometime
Well it's over now
yet I can see somehow
When its all gone wrong
it's hard to be so strong
You know its been on my mind
Could you stand right there
Look me straight in the eye and say
That it's over now
We pay our debt sometime
Guess it's over now
I seem alive somehow
When it's out of sight
just wait and do your time
You know its been on my mind
Could I stand right here
Look myself in the eye and say
That it's over now
We pay our debt sometime
5. Head Creeps
No more time
Just one more time
So crazy, beat the strain
Too lazy, shake the gray
So, and she willed the rain
So let me be defamed
Your redundancy stains
Tired of infantile claims
Like puppets on a string
Untangle you from me
Time to call the doggies off
Tired of the shadowin'
Slide me to the side again
Slapped in the face again
No more time
Just one more time
Your redundancy stains
Tired of infantile claims
Like puppets on a string
Untangle you from me
So crazy, beat the strain
Too lazy, shake the gray
So, and she willed the rain
So let me be defamed
Time to call the doggies off
Tired of the shadowin'
Slide me to the side again
Slapped in the face again
One day my plane leaves
Some way my head creeps
Some day my head leads
Some way my head creeps
No more time
Just one more time
Empty room sets the scene
Pick at me slow, pain fiend
Suck me through barbed screen
Anger becomes our queen
Tongue whipping forked black
How long until you crack
Surprised and set back
Lackeys' loose talk for fact
Time to call the doggies off
Tired of the shadowin'
Slide me to the side again
Slapped in the face again
One day my plane leaves
Some way my head creeps
Some day my head leads
Some way my head creeps
Creeps
No more time
Just one more time
So crazy feel the hate
Yeah, I've got years to wait
I know it's not too late
Lending clean hands of fate
Rise from the dirt I'm in
Hide in another's skin
Stick black dress doll with pin
Your mouth takes on my grin
