Alice In Chains - It Ain't Like That Lyrics






There I was, laid out on a table
Screamin' sweat and bare feet to the floor
In my life, I'd not soften
Things that cut, and burn so often
But I sit, think of somethin'
Scared to face, the dyin' nothin'

See the cycle I've waited for
It ain't like that anymore

Where I go is when I feel I'm able
How I fight is why I'm feelin' sore
In my mind, not forgotten
Feel as though, a tooth were rotten
Behind the smile, a tongue that's slippin'
Buzzards cry, when flesh is rippin'

See the cycle I've waited for
It ain't like that anymore

Here I sit writing on the paper
Trying to think of words you can't ignore
In my eyes, what I'm lacking
Score at face, a ten for slacking
Sign the deal, set in motion
Smaller fish, so huge the ocean

See the cycle I've waited for
It ain't like that anymore

  17. S.... 8....

    Isso Não é Assim
    Lá estava eu debruçado numa mesa
    Gritando, suor e pés descalços no chão
    Em minha vida, eu não suavizo
    Coisas que cortam, e muitas vezes queimam
    Mas eu sento, pensando em algo
    Com medo de encarar o nada morrendo
    Veja o ciclo que estive esperando
    Ele não é mais o que era
    Aonde vou é quando me sinto capaz
    Como eu luto é porque me sentindo ferido
    Em minha mente, não esquecida
    Sensação de como se um dente estivesse podre
    Atrás do sorriso, uma língua que está deslizando
    Abutres gritam, quando a carne é rasgada
    Veja o ciclo que estive esperando
    Ele não é mais o que era
    Aqui eu sento escrevendo no papel
    Tentando pensar em palavras que você não pode ignorar
    Nos meus olhos o que está me faltando
    Marcado no rosto, um décimo por afrouxar
    Assine o acordo, ponha em ação
    Peixe menor, tão imenso o oceano
    Veja o ciclo que estive esperando
    Ele não é mais o que era

  18. M.... G....

    Hauntingly perfect..rock bands aint like that anymore!

  22. A.... O....

    Rock on!! 🤘

  23. C.... G....

    No White Guy could ever ROCK Dreadlocks like Layne Staley..

  24. s.... ....

    This is why AIC ruled the grunge kingdom.
    Bow your heads, bunch of pussies, a thunder voice announces king Layne is passing.

  25. t.... ....

    The best of the Seattle grunge era bands.......by far.

  32. n.... 9....

    LAYNE! FOREVER! 💔

  33. C.... S....

    100% bad ass

  34. B.... ....

    Layne Staley. The only guy to wear sunglasses indoors and actually be cool.

    B.... ....

    And never lose them...

    B.... ....

    Man I’ll never understand where it is that sunglasses wander off to

  35. y.... i....

    The best to come out of the State of Washington

  36. m.... h....

    Jerry Cantrell’s awesome tone when he scrapes up on the E chord is legendary. Sounds like glass breaking or metal squeaking. Totally shaped chains’ sound, in my humble opinion

    m.... h....

    Agree 100% I've always felt the same way. The sounds and tone he gets are beyond awesome.

  37. D.... A....

    Perfección

  38. A.... D....

    the good old days!

  60. r.... h....

    Every song of there's I hear,I always say that's my favorite song, I couldn't even try to pick my favorite one, all of their songs are great

  61. N.... M....

    Unfuckingbelievable!!! I've still not heard anything close to matching this live perfection. So fucking real, honest, not contrived, just amazing.

  62. J.... S....

    The harmony to pull off live is so tough and they're like yeah childs play.

  63. J.... S....

    He was brilliant the two together hard rock heaven!!!!

  64. M.... C....

    Back when Layne was taking drugs but they hadn't took him yet.

  65. W.... B....

    Those were he days! AIC was real as it gets

  66. C.... C....

    Love this vid, and Layne is healthy and full of vibrant life here. If only.....😢

  67. M.... Q....

    I remember the first time time (only time) seeing these guys live. I really had no idea who they were. I could just tell they were kicking ass. I stood there amazed at how they swung their heads around, and Laynes dreds. Even knowing they were kicking ass, I didn't have the appreciation of just how good they sound live. And they just aren't the same without him. He is truly missed and it's a shame he had to go so soon...well before his time.

  68. p.... m....

    Layne seemed to have really liked his braids ❤️❤️❤️❤️He'll always be missed 🖤

  69. R.... S....

    Foda demais!!!!!!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

  73. C.... S....

  84. S.... R....

    WTF!!!!!!!!!#!#

  85. t.... ....

    A BANDA MAIS FORTE DE SEATTLE, "MOL PANELINHA"

  86. J.... ....

    Minha msc favorita do aic, piro demais nesse som

  87. R.... M....

    God I miss Layne and Mike

  88. h.... w....

    Jerry Cantrell best headbanger of all time. Hands down.
    Prove me wrong.

    h.... w....

    Dimebag Darryl......I personally have no preference because I listened to ALL their music back in the 80s and 90s.... they are my peers..... but the fact is Jerry and Darryl both rocked.... your statement is subjective, debatable, and quite obviously a personal preference.... and that's cool. If you had mentioned Layne in comparison to whatever....I certainly couldn't have debated that.... even though I like Phil....Layne was phenomenal, and without question, a fantastic singer!

  89. C.... ....

    I would sell my soul to devil to live in the early 90s in Seattle

  90. L.... M....

    This is my favorite performance of Layne's - the energy, the head banging, his voice, the dreds! Totally rocks!

    L.... M....

    My favorite live song too.

  91. W.... S....

    2019 whith Alice In Chains!

  92. T.... G....

    Where was this filmed at?

  93. S.... F....

    I love this performance!!

  94. M.... D....

    lmao Layne got so much better @ singing since 1986

  95. R.... J....

    Layne looks badass in this vid.

  96. A.... M....

    I love that he headbanged so hard AND HIS GLASSES STILL STAYED ON.
    dude if I'm on a boat and the wind slightly blows my fucking glasses fall off my face, and this fucker is practically doing back flips on stage and his shit stays on... some black magic going on here.
