Текст песни Alice in Chains — A Looking in View (2009)

Hear foot steps creek the floor
The shadows give away
Someone outside the door
Won’t let’em in

Life damaged gives to crime
A run down broke machine
That steals your piece of mind
Before you know it's gone

Lay down

Lay

Silence burning on your tongue
Keep us separate, so they'll know

Hiding in the darkest slumber
Boiling to the surface

A looking in view too long on the outside
Desperate plans make sense to the low life
A looking in view too long on the outside
Desperate plans make sense to the low life

These things I hate in you
Also reflect it seems
Distortion laced with spite
Teach you how to leave

Lay down

Lay

Hiding in the darkest slumber
Boiling to the surface
Crawling on your skin discomfort
Makes you brake and run and stumble fall

A looking in view too long on the outside
Desperate plans make sense to the low life
A looking in view too long on the outside
Desperate plans make sense to the low life

It's why you never tell me (what's on your mind)
It's why you never tell me (what's on your mind)
It's why you never tell me (what's on your mind)
It's why you never tell me (what's on your mind)

A looking in view too long on the outside
Desperate plans make sense to the low life
A looking in view too long on the outside
Desperate plans make sense to the low life

It's why you never tell me (what's on your mind)
