Jerry Cantrell
Private Hell
[Verse 1]
Give away a love
And then remove another, too
Painted words adorn the walls
Echoing untrue

[Pre-Chorus]
I feel cold... uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

[Verse 2]
Promises abound
You rarely find it to begin
Maybe I'm afraid to let you
All the way in

[Pre-Chorus]
I guess so... uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

[Chorus]
I excuse myself
I'm used to my little cell
I amuse myself
In my very own private hell
I excuse myself
I'm used to my little cell
I amuse myself
In my very own private hell
[Verse 3]
Lately, I'm beside myself
Pretending, unconcerned
Standing at a corner
Where I threw you on a turn

[Pre-Chorus]
I'll move on... uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

[Verse 4]
Flowers on a cross remain
Mark an ending scene
Damn it all if blood you spill
Turn the grass more green

[Pre-Chorus]
Life is short... uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

[Chorus]
I excuse myself
I'm used to my little cell
I amuse myself
In my very own private hell
I excuse myself
I'm used to my little cell
I amuse myself
In my very own private hell
[Outro]
I amuse myself
In my very own private hell
