EVERLAST LYRICS - So Long

"So Long"



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 skinning

Right from the beginning

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



I think I'm gonna die today

And everyone who hurt me's gonna pay

How could such a short time feel so long?

How could such a young life go so wrong, 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

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



I think I'm gonna die today

Everyone who hurt me's gonna pay

How could such a short time feel so long?

How could such a young life go so wrong?



I think I'm gonna die today

Everyone who hurt me's gonna pay

How could such a short time feel so long?

How could such a young life go so wrong?



Think I'm gonna die today

Everyone who hurt me's gonna pay

How could such a short time feel so long?

How could such a young life go so wrong?



Momma, don't cry

Please, Momma, don't cry

Momma, don't cry

You did nothing wrong
