I’ll build a little place just north of heaven I’m kinda tired of living south of hell Verse 2: Don’t assume you can ignore me You’d best bite your lip in case I Make it after all And how contemptuously you’ve shown me That all my aspirations Were so paltry and so small Refrain Bridge: Some mother’s talking ’bout Guns’n’Roses As if I give a fuck At best I think they suck I’m too preoccupied with my memories Not nonentities Refrain I’m kinda tired of living south of hell I’m kinda tired of living...
