Alice in Chains
Scalpel
[Verse 1]
Road narrows, pouring down
I'm breaking without a sound
Bits and pieces of trying
Get what you pay for: nothing

[Verse 2]
Frozen dreaming of yesterday
Potent, creeping, I'm far away
From my hometown, I lit out
To save my skin and shed some doubt

[Pre-Chorus]
I know how false the floor
How high the sky
Been down that road before

[Chorus]
It's a lie, you hide in someone else
Like a shining scalpel, cut yourself
It's a lie, you hide in someone else
Like a shining scalpel, cut yourself

[Verse 3]
Hard as truth is, been my friend
Don't need to be invited in
I'll go 'round till bested
Pick up myself and try again
[Pre-Chorus]
I know how false the floor
How high the sky
Been down that road before

[Chorus]
It's a lie, you hide in someone else
Like a shining scalpel, cut yourself
It's a lie, you hide in someone else
Like a shining scalpel, cut yourself

[Bridge]
All comes in time
Don't fight it, don't mind it
Whatever may come
All comes in time
Don't fight it, don't mind it
Whatever may come

[Pre-Chorus]
I know how false the floor
How high the sky
Been down both roads before

[Chorus]
It's a lie, you hide in someone else
Like a shining scalpel, cut yourself
It's a lie, you hide in someone else
Like a shining scalpel, cut yourself
