Sorrow (Acoustic) - Bad Religion

Gone through it all You catch me when I fall Our memories will fade But I'll love you 'til I'm gone Morning dew on the prairie Will chill you to the bone I stay cold out here on the run This road don't feel like home And the time rolls on But I'm still running blind Hindered by destructive thoughts That echo in my mind But I'm still breathing I'm living day by day Liquor and these smokes They'll come and they'll go It's my abusin' and my usin' I used to fill the hole Headed for high ground Walking with my head down Whisper silent prayers up above And wait for a heavenly sound And the time rolls on But I'm still running blind Hindered by destructive thoughts That echo in my mind But I'm still breathing I'm living day by day Less air all smoke Gettin' hard not to choke Less time and wasted wine Out here on my own And the time rolls on But I'm still running blind Hindered by the destructive thoughts That echo in my mind But I'm still breathing I'm living day by day

I am a man of constant sorrow I have seen trouble all my day I've bid farewell to old Kentucky A state where I was born and raised For six long years I've been in trouble No pleasure here on earth I found For in this world I'm bound to travel I have no friends to help me now You may bury me in some deep valley For many years where I may lay Then you may learn to love another While I'm sleeping in my grave Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger My face, you'll never see no more But there is one promise that is given I'll meet you on God's golden shore

Sorrow where have you been? Show me them hands then invite me on into your house I knew that you'd come around Looking so lovely Looking so out on the town. Let's get to it. Let's talk sweetly like all our love is false Like we can stick around i'll say too much I'll let you down with sorrow's touch. Marrow straight to the bone. That's what I call you. That's where our love is at home I hate that you feel alone I hate that I need you I hate that I throw the first stone I should warn you I'm half-cultured I'm always getting upset, then I leave Let's stick around, I'll say too much I'll let you down with sorrow's touch Let's stick around, I'll say too much I'll let you down with sorrow's touch Let's stick around, I'll say too much I'll let you down with sorrow's touch Let's stick around, I'll say too much I'll let you down with sorrow's touch Let's stick around, I'll say too much I'll let you down with sorrow's touch

It was early Sunday morning Everyone in the house was still asleep She made some toast and coffee Took a shower and made herself smell sweet She said, "I don't want a bus ride, I believe that the walk might help me think Got a heart kind of heavy I need some big hat and gloves, shoes and bag religion!" Religion That's my decision Some of that "make me feel better when I shout!" religion That's my decision Papa Henry was full of spice He was a man usually nice But something got into him last night Made him want to fuss and hollar The entire house was in a sweat His bottle got broken and the floor got wet "Clean it up!" you could hear him scream Then he said, "I'm going out" I need religion Religion That's my decision Some of that "raise up the roof, 90 proof" religion That's my decision Religion It's my decision, oh yes it is That's my decision It's the story about a good family Who doesn't live anymore in good harmony They are people who love their daughter and son They try to give them religion Little Billy likes his best friend Jack How in the world could he be like that Mama and Henry wanna have that chat Boy, you need religion Little Betty, whatcha gonna do? There's a child growing inside of you You should've stopped and thought things through Little girl you need a vision of religion Religion And that's my decision Some of that "how'd I get on Rikki Lake" religion That's my decision Religion Get a little, Religion Get a little Religion

Tu amor fue mi salvación Tu amor como creer en Dios Como creer en dios Como creer en Dios Si me mantengo en pie es por ella Por mi gitana canastera que bien me hizo Amarte es una religión Y uno la siente con pasión Tanto te debo Tanto te amo Siento que crecen más con los años Los dos bien cogidos de la mano Podemos con lo malo Contigo lo tengo todo Más no le pido a la vida Hasta el tiempo se me para Cuando tú me miras Y es que me mantiene firme Mi verdad más verdadera Es que tu amor me hace bien Como la primavera Ni por to' el oro del mundo te cambio Las riquezas yo la tengo en mi cuarto Rosario, Triana, mi vida Muestro mi corazón Nadie me lo quita con estos sentimientos muero yo No habrá otra mujer, solo tú y yo Sólo tú sabes hacerme feliz Mis deseos son siempre contigo Este amor es eterno Tuyo lo que tengo cariño Este amor es eterno (este amor es eterno) Como un hada te siento, lo que tengo Contigo lo tengo todo Mas no le pido a la vida Y hasta el tiempo se me para Cuando tú me miras Y es que me mantiene firme Mi verdad más verdadera Es que tu amor me hace el bien Como la primavera Gracias por sacarme de ese mundo de mentiras Y regalarme los mejores años de mi vida Siento orgullo cuando pienso en todos tus detalles Buena esposa, buena hija y mejor madre Gitana que hubiera sido de mi sin ti Con lo golfo que era Sacaste lo mejor de mi Sanaste mi alma llenaste de paz y calma Un corazón perdido en cosas malas Contigo lo tengo todo Mas no le pido a la vida Hasta el tiempo se me para Cuando tú me miras Y es que me mantiene firme Mi verdad más verdadera Es que tu amor hace el bien Como la primavera

Father, can you hear me? How have I let you down? I curse the day that I was born And all the sorrow in this world Let me take you to the herding ground Where all good men are trampled down Just to settle a bet that could not be won Between a prideful father and his son Will you guide me now? For I can't see A reason for the suffering and this long misery What if every living soul could be upright and strong? Well then I do imagine There will be sorrow Yeah, there will be sorrow And there will be sorrow no more When all soldiers lay their weapons down Or when all kings and all queens relinquish their crowns Or when the only true messiah rescues us from ourselves It's easy to imagine There will be sorrow Yeah, there will be sorrow And there will be sorrow no more There will be sorrow Yeah, there will be sorrow And there will be sorrow no more Yeah, there will be sorrow Yeah, there will be sorrow And there will be sorrow no more

A sullen figure walks along a dusty road His life was holy, and he couldn't bear the load He left his people and a simple life behind He raised his torso and he looked into the sky Shouting his questions Looking for directions "What do I do now?" Now a confused school girl stares at the TV tray The stresses of maturing compound everyday She glances up to see her favorite video And gets ideas from Madonna's nasty clothes In need of affection She craves the direction her heroes offer her Everyone's looking for something And they all assume somebody else knows what it is No one can live with the decisions of their own It seems, so they look to someone else To tell 'em what to be Tell 'em what to wear, tell 'em what to say Tell 'em how to act and think, compel others compulsively Until the world is all like them A righteous student came and asked me to reflect He judged my lifestyle was politically incorrect I don't believe in self-important folks who preach No Bad Religion song can make your life complete Prepare for rejection You'll get no direction from me You'll get no direction from me You'll get no direction from me
