Dave Matthews Band - Long Black Veil lyrics

It's not enough to be like Elvis,

the subjects only have one king.

It's not a choice that makes you helpless,

Look at all the suffering

It brings.

I remember crying for my Sins,

I remember screaming from the pain,

but crying never changed a thing.

It's not enough to have all the answers.

and It's not enough

Just to be prepared.

It won't be the

One you're holding onto,

It's the

One you miss when it's not there.

I remember crying for my sins,

I remember screaming from

The pain,

I remember the shaking in my hands,

but crying never changed a thing.

It's not good enough to blame it all on somebody else,

you can only ever play one hand at a time and I won't accept your bullshit

excuses,

the end will never justify your crime.

I remember crying for my sins and I remember screaming from the pain,

but crying, you know,

It never, never changed a thing.

It never changed a thing.
