Everlast - So Long lyrics

(do you ever have bad dreams? All I have is bad dreams)

I knew a man with a son

Who bought him a gun

And learned shorty just how to use it

Taught him hunting and skining

Right from the begining

Built himself a mighty fine killer

But shorty got picked on

Beat on and kicked on

And all his classmates wanna punk him

So with tears in his eye

He catch him in a ride

And told his old man he went hunting

And he felt so free

Like his destiny

Lay somewhere out on the horizon

His heart went cold

He felt a hundred years old

And started pulling back on the trigger

[Chorus]

I think I'm gonna die today

And everyone who hurt me's gonna pay

How could such a short time be so long

How could such a young life go so wrong

(what's it gonna take for you to really make it in life?)

See me

Hear me

But don't touch me

You should fear me

Lived your life dearly

'Cause I'm seriously disturbed

That's my word

Straight to my mother

Wayne, my brother

Who found another one to play sucker

'Cause I ain't the one

Who put shade in your sun

And took all your shine

Watch me get mine

Feel my love burn

Me for my sins

Watch the world turn

The saga begins

Losses and wins

Angels and sins

Dancin' on top

Ahead of the pit

Don't know where I'm going

But I know where I've been

I can't hear a sound

I clapped a full round

I came to get down

I came to get dirty

I came to get even

[Chorus]

Momma, don't cry

Please, momma, don't cry

Momma, don't cry

You did nothing wrong
