there was a time

(bkz: was a time)

gnr’nin beklenen ama bir türlü gelmesi nasip olmayan yepyeni albümünün çok hoş bir parçasıdır. özellikle de axl’in farklı yorumu, beklenenin ötesinde iyi olan gitar solosu ve davul ritmleri gayet iyi.

bir chinese democracy sarkisi.albümün umut veren sarkilarindan.

broken glass and cigarettes
writing on the wall
it was a bargain for the summer
and i thought i had it all
i was the one who gave you everything
the one who took the fall
you were the one who would do anything
one who can’t recall
where she was while she was sleeping
in another’s women’s bed
or the doctors or the lawyers or the stranger that she met
if there’s nothing that i can gain from this
or anything at all
it’d be the knowledge that you gave me when i thought i’d heard it all

it was a long time for you
it was a long time for me
it’d be a long time for everyone but looks like it’s meant to be

social class and registers
cocaine in the hall
all the way from california
on the way beyond that stall
to those non-negotiations, to simulate a call
while the battle of mid-evils, and your ways around the laws
that’d keep you up and sitting pretty
on a pedestal of fear
and now you’re sleeping like an angel
near than man who reaped it
if there’s something i can make of this
or anything at all
it’d be the devil hates a loser and you thought you had it all

it was the wrong time for you
it was the wrong time for me
it was the wrong time for everyone
but it looks like i’m ’bout to see for myself

if i could go back in time to the place in my soul
they’re all alone, lonely teardrops
ooh, are calling you
but i don’t want to know it now
cuz knowing you it won’t change a damn thing

but there was a time

there was a time
didn’t want to know it all
didn’t want to know it all
and i don’t wanna know it now
don’t want to know it now

there was a time
i would do anything for you
