Sour Times (Live at Roseland Ballroom, NYC) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
To pretend no one can find
The fallacies of morning rose
Forbidden fruit, hidden eyes
Courtesies that I despise in me
Take a ride, take a shot now

[Chorus]
'Cause nobody loves me, it's true
Not like you do

[Verse 2]
Covered by the blind belief
That fantasies of sinful screens
Bear the facts, assume the dye
End the vows, no need to lie, enjoy
Take a ride, take a shot now

[Chorus]
'Cause nobody loves mе, it's true
Not like you do

[Bridge]
Who am I, what and why?
'Cause all I havе left
Is my memories of yesterday
Oh, these sour times
[Chorus]
'Cause nobody loves me, it's true
Not like you do

[Verse 4]
After time, the bitter taste
Of innocence, descent, or race
Scattered seeds, buried lives
Mysteries of our disguise revolve
Circumstance will decide

[Chorus]
'Cause nobody loves me, it's true
Not like you do

[Chorus]
'Cause nobody loves me, it's true
Not like you
Nobody loves me, it's true
Not like you do

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
