Jerry Cantrell - Atone lyrics

[Verse 1] Hounded by a feeling that I've known Following everywhere I go [Pre-Chorus] Falling ashes never done Turn to flame under the sun Guilty of some crime [Chorus] Gotta find a way to atone Gotta find a way to atone Trying to find a way to atone [Verse 2] Don't much care to be the other me One that plays the role of enemy [Pre-Chorus] Falling ashes never done Turn to flame under the sun Running out of time [Chorus] Gotta find a way to atone Gotta find a way to atone Trying to find a way to atone [Bridge] Tenderly lay me down Touch my facе and speak to me like a child I want to bеlieve I'll never drown Can ascend No release or reprieve to be found [Verse 3] Now seldom seen on the run Aren't both sides the wrong end of a gun? [Pre-Chorus] Falling ashes never done Turn to flame under the sun Somehow crossed a line [Chorus] Gotta find a way to atone Gotta find a way to atone Trying to find a way to atone Why? [Outro] To be judged, stand and deliver Half-starved, choke on the splinters Have mercy, can you be the giver? To speak my cursed name
