Wallflowers - Bleeders lyrics

rate me

Once upon a time

They called me the bleeder

Well swimmin' up this river

With sentimental fever

But this ain't my first ride

It ain't my last try

Just got to keep a-movin' on

If they catch me ever

They'll throw me back forever

Chorus:

I guess I should be ashamed

But I forget to be vain

Well I did the best I could I guess

But everything just bleeds

They say you're only sad and lonely

And no one is impressed

I sent it off in a letter

I need somethin' better

Than a nail and a hammer

To put me back together

But this ain't my first ride

It ain't my last try

Just got to keep a-movin on

Got to keep this together

Maybe next time is never

(chorus)

Sometimes I must confess

I do feel a little over dressed

Sometimes it's hard to tell the wishing from the well

Where you threw the penny and where it fell

I guess I should I should be ashamed

But I forget to be vain

Well I did the best I could I guess

But everything just bleeds

I guess I should be ashamed

But I forget to be vain

Well I did the best I could I guess

But everything just bleeds

They say you're only sad and lonely

And no one is impressed
