It Aint Like That - Lyrics by Alice In Chains

There i was, laid out on a table
Screamin' sweat and bare feet to the floor
In my life, i'd not soften
Things that cut, and burn so often
But i sit, think of somethin'
Scared to face, the dyin' nothin'

See the cycle i've waited for
It ain't like that anymore

Where i go is when i feel i'm able
How i fight is why i'm feelin' sore
In my sight, not forgotten
Feel as though, a tooth were rotten
Behind the smile, a tongue that's slippin'
Buzzards cry, when flesh is rippin'

See the cycle i've waited for
It ain't like that anymore

Here i sit writing on the paper
Trying to think of words you can't ignore
In my eyes, what i'm lacking
Score at face, a ten for slacking
Sign the deal, set in motion
Smaller fish, so huge the ocean

See the cycle i've waited for
It ain't like that anymore
