Honor to Us All
lyrics by Chris Cornell
music by Matt Cameron
Standing with my enemies
Hung on my horns
With haste and reverie
Killing with charm
Only happy when you hurt
Only deadly in a swarm
Only healthy in the dirt
Only empty in your arms
I play, I'm sick and tame
Drawing the hordes
I wait, and show the lame
The meaning of harm
The skull beneath my feet
Like feathers in sand
I graze among the graves
A feeling of peace
Only bending when you break
Only feeding when you're cold
Only healing when you ache
Only feeling
music by Matt Cameron
Standing with my enemies
Hung on my horns
With haste and reverie
Killing with charm
Only happy when you hurt
Only deadly in a swarm
Only healthy in the dirt
Only empty in your arms
I play, I'm sick and tame
Drawing the hordes
I wait, and show the lame
The meaning of harm
The skull beneath my feet
Like feathers in sand
I graze among the graves
A feeling of peace
Only bending when you break
Only feeding when you're cold
Only healing when you ache
Only feeling
Nerve Gas
Standing here in the ballroom as the dancers twirling
Everything to the marching drums
And lying here in your yard alone as all the old war pilots have done
Oh this little bird heart got so cracked
I can't sleep deep tonight
Oh no I can't for sure
I can't sleep deep tonight
Yeah better eject
Oh as we are
Nerve gas over us
Just leave that nerve gas on
Standing here in your yard alone as all the paratroopers dropped
It's how this little bird heart got so cracked
So I can't sleep deep tonight
So I can't sleep deep tonight
