TASTE THE PAIN
Anthony Kiedis/John [bad word] Michael Balzary//Chad Smith

Flat on my back
In a lonely sprawl
I stare at the ceiling
'Cause I can not fall
Asleep tonight
No not at all
Head lights flash
Across my bedroom wall
Crying eyes open
'Cause I can not fall
In love with you
No not at all

Walk away and taste the [bad word] again some other day
Aren't you glad you weren't afraid?
Funny how the price gets paid

Walk away and taste the [bad word] again some other day
Aren't you glad you weren't afraid?
Funny how the price gets paid

Busted in two
Like a brittle stick
I can not drink
Because my throat constricts
Lovesick from you
That will never do
Open my mouth
I couldn't make a sound
I could not scream
No
I could not shout
It out to you
Nothing to do

Walk away and taste the [bad word] again some other day
Aren't you glad you weren't afraid?
Funny how the price gets paid

Walk away and taste the [bad word] again some other day
Aren't you glad you weren't afraid?
Funny how the price gets paid

This [bad word] as a shocking surprise
I have to take a walk
I have to kiss it goodbye
Goodbye my love
Goodbye my love
I am not alive

Walk away and taste the [bad word] again some other day
Aren't you glad you weren't afraid?
Funny how the price gets paid

Walk away and taste the [bad word] again some other day
Aren't you glad you weren't afraid?
Funny how the price gets paid
Funny how the price gets paid
