[Verse 1: Jerry Cantrell]
Frozen in the place I hide
Not afraid to paint my sky with
Some who say I've lost my mind
Brother, try and hope to find
[Chorus: Jerry Cantrell & Ann Wilson]
You were always so far away
I know that pain, so don't you run away
Like you used to do
[Verse 2: Jerry Cantrell]
Roses in a vase of white
Bloodied by the thorns beside the leaves
That fall because my hand is
Pulling them hard as I can
[Chorus: Jerry Cantrell & Ann Wilson]
You were always so far away
I know that pain, I won't run away
Like I used to do
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3: Jerry Cantrell]
Pictures in a box at home
Yellowing and green with mold
So I can barely see your face
Wonder how that color taste
[Chorus: Jerry Cantrell & Ann Wilson]
You were always so far away
I know the way, so don't you run away
Like you used to do
Like you used to do
Like you used to do
Like you used to do
Frozen in the place I hide
Not afraid to paint my sky with
Some who say I've lost my mind
Brother, try and hope to find
[Chorus: Jerry Cantrell & Ann Wilson]
You were always so far away
I know that pain, so don't you run away
Like you used to do
[Verse 2: Jerry Cantrell]
Roses in a vase of white
Bloodied by the thorns beside the leaves
That fall because my hand is
Pulling them hard as I can
[Chorus: Jerry Cantrell & Ann Wilson]
You were always so far away
I know that pain, I won't run away
Like I used to do
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3: Jerry Cantrell]
Pictures in a box at home
Yellowing and green with mold
So I can barely see your face
Wonder how that color taste
[Chorus: Jerry Cantrell & Ann Wilson]
You were always so far away
I know the way, so don't you run away
Like you used to do
Like you used to do
Like you used to do
Like you used to do
