Lyrics

Sponge

Miles

From Rotting Piñata1994

Written by Jimmy Paluzzi, Joey Mazzola, Mike Cross

Lyrics

Miles

[Verse 1]

Two brothers, the walking dead

"Pray for silence," the other said

One shot to the sky

The other held down by disguise

Sex for an angry man

Two whores, they can count on him

One made of paper, the other glass

And one will tear, the other crash

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh God, was I that man

Upon a cross

Made of steel

Stuck on that wall

Cold and thin

Who watched me die

And did not care?

[Chorus]

Miles to go before I sleep

Miles to go before I sleep

Miles to go to fall in deep

Is this the way it has to be? Yeah

Miles to go before I sleep

Miles to go before I sleep

Miles to go to fall in deep

Is this the way it has to be? Yeah

[Verse 2]

This side marched on parade

To the outside where no one came

What was there, it scorched the ground

The others made no sound

[Pre-Chorus]

God, was I that man

Upon a cross

Made of steel

Stuck on that wall

Cold and thin

Who watched me die

And did not care?

[Chorus]

Miles to go before I sleep

Miles to go before I sleep

Miles to go to fall in deep

Is this the way it has to be? Yeah

Miles to go before I sleep

Miles to go before I sleep

Miles to go to fall in deep

Is this the way it has to be?

[Outro]

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
