Yeah

[Verse 1]
Take, if you want a slice, if you want a piece
If it feels alright
Break, if you like the sound, if it gets you up
If it takes you down
Share, if it makes you sleep, if it sets you free
If it helps you breathe

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't come over here and piss on my gate
Save it, just keep it off my wave

[Verse 2]
Cry, if you want to cry, if it helps you see
If it clears your eyes
Hate, if you want to hate, if it keeps you safe
If it makes you brave
Pray, if you want to pray, if you like to kneel
If you like to lay

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't come over here and piss on my gate
Save it, just keep it off my wave

[Chorus]
Keep it off my wave
Keep it off my wave, my wave
Keep it off my wave, keep it off my wave
Keep it off my wave, my wave
My wave, my wave, my wave, my wave, my wave

[Verse 3]
Cry, if you want to cry, if it helps you see
If it clears your eyes
Hate, if you want to hate, if it keeps you safe
If it makes you brave
Take, if you want a slice, if you want a piece
If it feels alright

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't come over here and piss on my gate
Save it, just keep it off my wave

[Chorus]
Keep it off my wave
Keep it off my wave, my wave
Keep it off my wave, keep it off my wave
Keep it off my wave, my wave
My wave, my wave, my wave, my wave
My wave, my wave, my wave, my wave, my wave
Keep it off my wave
Keep it off my wave, my wave

[Outro]
Keep it off my wave
Keep it off my wave
Keep it off my wave
Keep it off my wave
Keep it off, keep it off
Keep it off my wave
Keep it off, keep it off
Keep it off my wave

Soundgarden

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.
