Buddahead - Sour Grapes (with lyrics)
Sour Grapes
Words by Raman Kia
We made this bed now we lie in it,
Started a fire just to burn in it,
Make no bones about it.
You dont know what to say?
You dont know what to say do you?
You dont know what to say.
You dont know what to say this time.
Were spitting sour grapes through the skin of our teeth,
We dont take the blame for what weve reaped,
Make no bones about it.
You dont know what to say?
You dont know what to say do you?
You dont know what to say.
You dont know what to say this time.
Who can we blame?
How many lies can we entertain?
A single slide, a single move,
A single raised hand in the room
Could shift the lines that change the whole world too.
Who can we blame?
How many lies can we entertain?
Suspended in this air,
We are some how floating on this water,
We are peeling layers of life from layers of death.
Sleep now under these uncertainties.
Dream now, dream of all the possibilities.
Still, we thought that thered be time
To cradle all the love we find,
All the love we left behind.
But now life begins to flash through our eyes;
And in our throats theres a dryness that reaches
All the way in to our mouth.
Now its time to go,
Now its time to let go.
Just close your eyes and say goodbye
To all the love thats pulled you through all time.
(Stop feeding us those sour grapes)
Ive got a good mind to throw in the towel
Ive been rolling with the punches for so long.
Now life is a heartache in the cubicles,
The ashes of a dream I once had.
So, good night;
Here is wishing you everything you dream about.
Good night.
