Chris Cornell - Roads We Choose lyrics

Whenever I'm hurt, you are my nurse

You stand beside me through all seasons

You clean up my face, you fill up my space

With white linen and syringes

Out on the road you carry my load

Make it lighter when I feel weak

And when i am blind you crawl in my mind

And make me wiser than I could ever be alone

I know it ain't easy

I know it's getting harder for you

I know it ain't easy

But these are the roads that we choose

When I make a mess you wash and you dress me

When I'm wired you talk me down

When I'm a fool you're calm and you're cool

I never want for anything when you're around

When I'm in your bed, all you ever do

Is treat me with respect, but I don't know how

I know It ain't easy

Yes, I know it's getting harder for you

I know it ain't easy

But these are the roads that we choose

Though I've made some big mistakes

You don't complain at all

Even when you come and find me

Crying like a baby

Standing up in the bathtub

Whenever I'm hurt, you are my nurse

You stand beside me through all seasons

You're patient when I'm slow, warm when I'm cold

You're everything I'm not, you know everything I don't

I know it ain't easy

I know it's getting harder for you

I know it ain't easy

But these are the roads that we choose

These are the roads that we choose

These are the roads that we choose
