Then and Now Lyrics

When I first saw you baby, yeah you were gone,
So far gone
The scene was set for armageddon, and your
Grip on me was strong

[Chorus]

If you saw me yesterday, you wouldn't recognize my face
If you saw me yesterday, yeah you might've ran away

Sister uptown, you're a metaphor for all lifes grief and pain
Brother downtown, such a devil, make a snake out of any man

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

Don't feel like crawlin' out of my cage
I used to say,
Another lame song and dance about a thing
From my past,
I hope it's not boring you
In the end I lost a few friends
But I got up and I ran away

Drugs party in 526 is where I got my kicks
But where are they today?
Dead and gone, the damage is done, I got
Nothin' else to say

[Chorus]
