I Tried To Rock You But You Only Roll Lyrics

I Tried To Rock You But You Only Roll lyrics

Hear me now like you did back then

With an underground feeling and a solid goal -oh

so feel me now like you did back then

with an overgrown healing tried sealing my soul

got so scared got so tired

doin everything wrong doing everything right

got two guitars to play my songs

got many rights to kill my wrongs

got a smile that'll knock you down

i got friends who will follow me

and i dont own responsibility  

and i know what i am

and i know that i'm right

Yeah yeah yeah



my arms are reachin out to let you go

i tried to rock you but you only can roll

the ink u spilt across my skin (yeah)

is sinkin deeper within



I was wrong to put you up there

with a ton of dead heroes

and a ton of dead songs

but you came to me like a casual dream

slow to begin

put a smile on my skin

got a head full of new ideas

i got music bleeding from my ears

and people who believe in me

i got miles and miles of things to see

nothin relates to you and me

and i know what i am 

and i know that i'm right

yeah yeah yeah



my arms are reachin out to let you go

i tried to rock you but you only can roll

the ink you spilt across my skin (yeah)

is sinkin deeper within

Yeah Yeah yeah yeah

yeah yeah yeah yeah

(1 2 3 4)

My arms are reachin out to let you go

i tried to rock you but you only can roll

the ink you spilt across my skin (yeah)

is sinkin deeper within

(repeat)
