Outshined (track 02 from the Badmotorfinger LP by Soundgarden )
I got up feeling so down
I got off being sold out
I’ve kept the movie rolling, but the story’s getting old now
I just looked in the mirror and things aren’t looking so good
I’m looking California and feeling Minnesota
So now you know who gets mystified
Show me the power child
I’d like to say that I’m down on my knees today
It gives me butterflies, gives me away, till I’m up on my feet again
I’m feeling outshined
Someone let the dogs out, they’ll show where the truth is
The grass is always greener where the dogs are shitting
I’m feeling that I’m sober even though I’m drinking
I can’t get any lower, still I feel I’m sinking
So now you know who gets mystified
Show me the power child
I’d like to say that I’m down on my knees today
It gives me butterflies, gives me away, till I’m up on my feet again
I’m feeling outshined
