I don't mind stealin' bread from the mouths of decadents
But I can't feed on the powerless when my cup's already overfilled, yeah
But it's on the table, the fire's cookin'
And they're farmin' babies, while slaves are workin'
The blood is on the table and the mouths are chokin'
But I'm goin' hungry, yeah

“I tend to write faster when I’m in a bad mood. It’ll happen really fast because I’m not as self-conscious about it. I’m in a bad enough mood that I don’t really care. Usually I like the song a lot when that happens. Those are some of my favorite songs. Maybe it’s more immediate." (x)

In my shoes, a walking sleep
And my youth I pray to keep
Heaven send Hell away
No one sings like you anymore

This has to be one of my favorite songs Chris sang on
“And when it’s my time
To throw the next stone
I’ll call you beautiful
If I call at all…”
Like, that bit of lyric right there? Man. Is that deep.

Dreams have never been the answer / And dreams have never made my bed /.../
Well I want to fly above the storm / But you can't grow feathers in the rain / And the naked floor is cold as hell /.../
If I should be short on words / And long on things to say / Could you crawl into my world / And take me worlds away
The gorgeous Chris Cornell performing "Seasons" backstage in Chile, 2009 💞🎶💗🎸🎤🎼

Shed a tear 'cause I'm missin' you
I'm still alright to smile
Girl, I think about you everyday now
Was a time when I wasn't sure
But you set my mind at ease
There is no doubt you're in my heart now

Cry, if you want to cry
If it helps you see
If it clears your eyes

And on I read
Until the day was gone
And I sat in regret
Of all the things I've done
For all that I've blessed
And all that I've wronged
In dreams until my death
I will wander on
