The Swing (New Recording) [Bonus Track] Lyrics


Never said I was innocent
I will burn in hell for the things I've done to you
Never said I was anything good
I should die from the shame from what I put you throughLet me be the one to bring us back from the dead
I will take the blame for everything
You know I just wanna help you forget, yeah yeahWe are still living on broken glass
We are still numb because it just keeps happening
All your friends they can kiss my ass
They only see the simple things that they wanna seeLet me be the one to make the pain go away
Shave my skin and show a brand new face
You know I just wanna know that you're okay, yeahYou don't have to like it but the swing is in my hands now
Sometimes I think the power is better than a hard drug
Sometimes I think the power is better than anything
Sometimes I think letting go is just like giving upSometimes all I think I wanna do is die inside
All I wanna do is die inside
All I ever think about is you and me falling apart
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeahNever said I was innocent
I will burn in hell for the things I have done to you

Never said I was anything goodLet me be the one to make the pain go away
Shave my skin and show a brand new face
You know I just wanna know that you're okayLet me be the one to bring us back from the dead
I will take the blame for everything
I just wanna help you forgetSometimes I think letting go is just like giving up
Sometimes all I think about is falling apart

Everclear is a rock band formed in Portland, Oregon, USA, in 1992. For most of its existence, Everclear consisted of Art Alexakis (b. 12 April 1962, Los Angeles, California, USA; vocals, guitar), Craig Montoya (b. 14 September 1970; bass, vocals) and Greg Eklund (b. 18 April 1970; drums). Eklund replaced original drummer Scott Cuthbert in 1994. Montoya and Eklund departed the band in 2003, but Alexakis has continued performing as Everclear with a new lineup.

After a solo tour in the fall of 2003, Alexakis decided to continue with Everclear, organizing a new band that made its debut in March of 2004. The new lineup consisted of bass player Sam Hudson, guitarist Dave French, and drummer Eric Bretl. In the summer of 2004, the band added keyboard player Josh Crawley, and swapped Bretl for former Everclear drum tech Brett Snyder. The new lineup released its first recording, a cover of Woody Guthrie's This Land Is Your Land, that summer. A self-released EP of performances recorded for XM Satellite Radio called Closure was given out at shows in the fall of 2004.

Free of a major label, Alexakis spent the ensuing year and half slowly recording material for a new Everclear release. He admitted that the time after the breakup of the original lineup served as a "wake up call", during which he suffered his third divorce and a filing for bankruptcy. Alexakis announced the completion of the album in early 2006,titled Welcome To The Drama Club. The new band is now on Eleven Seven Music.

In August of 2008, drummer Brett Snyder left the band after four years. He was then replaced by Tommy Stewart, who previously played in bands Fuel and Godsmack.
