Sad but True (Live at Irvine Meadows Amphitheatre, Irvine, CA - August 4th, 1996)

[Intro]

We're gonna play some heavy shit, are you ready?

Are you fucking sure?

[Verse 1]

Hey (Hey), I'm your life

I'm the one who takes you there

Hey (Hey), I'm your life

I'm the one who cares

They (They), they betray

I'm your only true friend now

They (They), they'll betray

I'm forever there

[Chorus]

I'm your dream, make you real

I'm your eyes when you must steal

I'm your pain when you can't feel

Sad but true

I'm your dream, mind astray

I'm your eyes while you're away

I'm your pain while you repay

You know it's sad but true

Sad but true

[Verse 2]

You (You), you're my mask

You're my cover, my shelter

You (You), you're my mask

You're the one who's blamed

A-do (Do), do my work

Do my dirty work, scapegoat

Do (Do), do my deeds

For you're the one who's shamed

[Chorus]

I'm your dream, make you real

I'm your eyes when you must steal

I'm your pain when you can't feel

Sad but true

I'm your dream, mind astray

I'm your eyes while you're away

I'm your pain while you repay

You know it's sad but true

So sad but true

Yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]

I'm your dream

I'm your eyes

I'm your pain

I'm your dream (I'm your dream)

I'm your eyes (I'm your eyes)

I'm your pain (I'm your pain)

You know it's sad but true

Haha, yeah-ha

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

Hate (Hate), I'm your hate

I'm your hate when you want love

Pay (Pay), pay the price

Pay for nothing's fair

Hey (Hey), I'm your life

I'm the one who took you there

Hey (Hey), I'm your life

And I no longer care

[Chorus]

I'm your dream, make you real

I'm your eyes when you must steal

I'm your pain when you can't feel

Sad but true

I'm your truth, telling lies

I'm your reasoned alibis

I'm inside, open your eyes

I'm you

Sad but true

[Outro]

Oh, hell yeah

So now we're waking up, huh?

Great catch

You ready to make some noise?

I want you to repeat somethin' after me, man, 'cause it, uh, it makes us feel good up here

We don't give a shit (We don't give a shit)

You gotta say it like you fucking mean it at least, huh?

We don't give a shit (We don't give a shit)

Feels good, don't it?
