[Verse 1]
Time is my friend
Till it ain't, and runs out
And that is all
That I have, till it's gone

[Pre-Chorus]
Tried to build a home bones of birds
Singing in the cold and fall to earth

[Chorus]
Hey! Sometimes she won't cry
When the smallest one is trapped
Too weak to survive
Probably maybe

[Verse 2]
Tried to look out
Through a hole, in the vague
Circling above
Looking down, bird of prey

[Pre-Chorus]
Tried to build a home bones of birds
Singing in the cold and fall to earth

[Chorus]
Hey! Sometimes she won't cry
When the smallest one is trapped
Too weak to survive
Too weak to survive
Too weak to survive
Probably maybe

[Bridge]
Tried to build a home bones of birds
Singing in the cold and fall to earth

[Chorus]
Hey! Sometimes she won't cry!
When the smallest one is trapped!
Too weak to survive! Probably
Hey! Sometimes she won't cry!
When the smallest one is trapped!
Too weak to survive!
Too weak to survive!
Too weak to survive!
Maybe

One of the biggest rock bands out of Seattle, Soundgarden was formed in 1984 by singer and rhythm guitarist Chris Cornell, lead guitarist Kim Thayil, and bassist Hiro Yamamoto. Matt Cameron became the band’s full-time drummer in 1986, while bassist Ben Shepherd became a permanent replacement for Yamamoto in 1990. While one of the creators of the Grunge alternative rock and the first to sign to a major label, they only rose to stardom once the genre was popularized by Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains in the early 90s. After achieving great success with 1994’s Superunknown, the band decided to call it quits three years later due to internal squabbles. Eventually they reunited in 2010, releasing new album King Animal two years later. Frontman Chris Cornell committed suicide in a Detroit hotel room on May 17, 2017. He was 52 years old.
