Outshined

Outshined
I got up feeling so down
I got off being sold out
I've kept the movie rolling
But the story's getting old now, oh yeah
I just looked in the mirror
And things aren't looking so good
I'm looking California and feeling Minnesota, oh yeah

So now you know, who gets mystified
So now you know, who gets mystified
Show me the power child
I'd like to say
That I'm down on my knees today
Yeah, it gives me butterflies, gives me away
Till I'm up on my feet again
Yeah I'm feeling
Oh, I'm feeling outshined, outshined, outshined, outshined
Oh yeah
Yeah
Someone let the dogs out
They'll show where the truth is
The grass is always greener
Where the dogs are shitting, oh yeah
I'm feeling that I'm sober
Even though I'm drinking
I can't get any lower
Still I feel I'm sinking
So now you know, who gets mystified
So now you know, who gets mystified
Show me the power child
I'd like to say
That I'm down on my knees today
Yeah, it gives me butterflies gives me away
Till I'm up on my feet again
Oh I'm feeling
Oh, I'm feeling outshined, outshined, outshined, outshined

Oh yeah, hmm
Outshined, oh oh
Oh, so now you know, who gets mystified
Show me the power child
I'd like to say
That I'm down on my knees today
Yeah, it gives me butterflies gives me away
Till I'm up on my feet again
Oh I'm feeling
Oh, I'm feeling
Show me the power child
I'd like to say
That I'm down on my knees today
Yeah, it gives me butterflies gives me away
Till I'm up on my feet again
Oh, I'm feeling
Oh, I'm feeling
Outshined, outshined, outshined, outshined
En la canción 'Outshined' de Soundgarden, se narra la lucha interna de alguien que se siente abrumado por la presión y la insatisfacción consigo mismo. La letra describe un estado de ánimo oscilante entre la apariencia y la realidad, entre sentirse bien y estar realmente mal...
