Garbage - April 10th lyrics
[Garbage - April 10th lyrics]
It was April the tenth i remember it well
It was so cold that year
It was colder than hell
And things hadn't been good
For you, for a while 'Cause I'd been on tour
I hadn't heard
And Ruth dropped in
With the letter you wrote
And we read it aloud to prove that I could
And we were both laughing
'cause we know how you are
We never thought you'd quit on us good
We thought that we knew you
Well, I guess that we don't
Are you having me on just like the past?
We called you "the bad penny" remember that?
The sea is wide the streets are long
There's blood on all our hands
With the catalyst gone
And only what's left to us
Is history built on dust
On sweat, and on poet's words
Great nations and governments
Feed lies on victories
Eager and keen to please
Those junkies are everywhere
With their thousand yard stare
We all end up the same
Like little lambs to meet their end
It was so cold that year
It was colder than hell
And things hadn't been good
For you, for a while 'Cause I'd been on tour
I hadn't heard
And Ruth dropped in
With the letter you wrote
And we read it aloud to prove that I could
And we were both laughing
'cause we know how you are
We never thought you'd quit on us good
We thought that we knew you
Well, I guess that we don't
Are you having me on just like the past?
We called you "the bad penny" remember that?
The sea is wide the streets are long
There's blood on all our hands
With the catalyst gone
And only what's left to us
Is history built on dust
On sweat, and on poet's words
Great nations and governments
Feed lies on victories
Eager and keen to please
Those junkies are everywhere
With their thousand yard stare
We all end up the same
Like little lambs to meet their end
