Stone Temple Pilots - Stone Temple Pilots (2018) Lyrics
Middle of Nowhere
Don't fall in love with the midnight train
'Cause it'll leave you in the middle of nowhere
The criminals have this all contained
That's why you shouldn't come back 'til it's over
The propaganda's oh-so soothin'
But I think you should aim a bit lower
You don't like what I have to say
But there's nothing you can say because
There's nothing you can do about it
'Cause there's a right way
And there's a wrong way
And then there's my way
You better not forget it
She fell in love with a simple man
But he'll leave you in the middle of nowhere
She doesn't want what you're offering
That's why you shouldn't come back 'til you're older
The propaganda's oh-so soothin'
But I think you should aim a bit lower
You don't like what I have to say
But there's nothing you can say because
There's nothing you can do about it
'Cause there's a right way
And there's a wrong way
And then there's my way
You better not forget it
You better not forget it
You better not forget it
You better not forget it
You better not forget it
Don't fall in love with the midnight train
'Cause it'll leave you in the middle of nowhere
The criminals have this all contained
That's why you shouldn't come back 'til you're older
The propaganda's oh-so soothin'
But I think you should aim a bit lower
You don't like what I have to say
But there's nothing you can say because
There's nothing you can do about it
'Cause there's a right way
And there's a wrong way
And then there's my way
You better not forget it
You better not forget it
You better not forget it
You better not forget it
You better not forget it

Guilty
Spread the news, don't you feel much better
The cenacles are afraid to die
What's the truth but an open letter
By the clowns soaked in pesticide
Realize
You're gonna pay the price
You're gonna pay tonight
Some don't but to have is better
I got lost there along the way
I don't care for the change in weather
I let go to come back again
Realize
I'm guilty in my ways
Heard the news and it ain't much better
The innocent try to stay alive
Every time there's a real go getter
Falling down in the well that's dry
Realize
You're gonna pay the price
You're gonna pay tonight
Some don't but to have is better
I got lost there along the way
I don't care for the change in weather
I let go to come back again
Realize
I'm guilty in my ways
Some don't but to have is better
I got lost there along the way
I don't care for the change in weather
I let go to come back again
Realize
I'm guilty in my ways
Realize
I'm guilty in my ways

Meadow
Rise and shine, Clementine
There is something about you
Do you think you can dance
'Cause I'm willing to stay, fade away
And ride along
Sing a song, make it long
'Cause there's nothing without you
All I need is a chance
And I'm willing to play, another day
And right on, on and on
Yeah, we're all
Yeah, we're all just killing time and having fun
Here in the sun
When there's nowhere to hide
Yeah we're gonna step on
As we drink from the flame
That was burning in the meadow
We've broken our lives
Innocence of our souls
We can drink from the flame
That was burning in the meadow
You'll be mine, Clementine
'Cause I can't live without you
I got something to say
But you've already made
Made your way, so ride on
When you're gone, here's a song
I've been thinking about you
I'll remember your ways
And the clues that you gave, gave away
So ride on, on and on
Yeah, we're all
Yeah, we're all just killing time and having fun
Here in the sun
When there's nowhere to hide
Yeah we're gonna step on
As we drink from the flame
That was burning in the meadow
We've broken our lives
Innocence of our souls
We can drink from the flame
That was burning in the meadow
I gave you all, you gave another
I hold the wheel, you light the flame
When there's nowhere to hide
Yeah we're gonna step on
As we drink from the flame
That was burning in the meadow
We've broken our lives
Innocence of our souls
We can drink from the flame
That was burning in the meadow

Just A Little Lie
Step inside the maiden ride
It helps if you don't breathe
Patronize and criticize
And welcome to the scene
I hope it comes out right
It's just a little lie
Hide behind another crime
The benefit's so sweet
It's alright, it's just this time
The purity's unclean
I hope it comes out right
It's just a little lie
It's the only way to go from here
The only way to go from here
Realize just what's inside
We sink before we bleed
Some may run and some may hide
But that's alright with me
I hope it comes out right
It's just a little lie
It's the only way to go from here
The only way to go from here
From here
It's the only way to go from here
The only way to go from here
From here

Six Eight
Wait, come get lost in my reflection
But there's nothing honey to help ease the soul, yeah
There's nobody to carry us now
There's no one when we're out here alone
It's all fighting and violence
Now that we've made it this far on our own
Oh, in the violence now
And it all stays the same
All gets wasted
And it all stays the same
In the violence now
Wait, we've exhausted all direction
There's nowhere to hide when you can't ease the soul, no
There's nobody to carry us now
There's no one when we're out here alone
It's all fighting and violence
Now that we've made it this far on our own
Oh, in the violence now
And it all stays the same
All gets wasted
And it all stays the same
In the violence now
Oh, in the violence now
And it all stays the same
All gets wasted
And it all stays the same
In the violence now

Thought Shed Be Mine
I swim in oceans of blue sky
Autumn hazy
They tell me it's only you
Anticipating the one thing that could save me
But something's not right with the moon
Every time I get by I get closer to thinking
And we don't need that again
I've been sinking in blue eyed autumn baby
Still thinking back to when
I thought she'd be mine
Thought she'd be mine
I thought she'd be mine
Thought she'd be mine
I thought she'd be mine
Mine in the morning
I walk the streets out of time
So tired and lonely
Never to be the same
It could've been something beautiful if only
I opened my eyes too late
Every time that I try words get lost in the wind
And we don't need that again
I've been thinking of blue eyed autumn baby
I used to remember when
I thought she'd be mine
Thought she'd be mine
I thought she'd be mine
Thought she'd be mine
I thought she'd be mine
Mine in the morning
I thought she'd be mine
Thought she'd be mine
I thought she'd be mine
I thought she'd be mine
Thought she'd be mine
Mine in the morning
I thought she'd be mine
Mine in the morning
Uh uh uh
Uh uh uh
Mine in the morning
I thought she'd be mine
Mine in the morning
I thought she'd be mine
Mine in the morning

Roll Me Under
Do you believe in something beautiful
Between chaos and the light
You gave it all for something you once sold
The truth be told you lied
If it's the taste you remember
You may not share in this sweet delight
Yeah we can live forever
If there's a time we can get it right
Roll me under, I'll pull the trigger for ya
Do with me what you will
Hold me under, the water running over
Do with me what you will
Are you receiving nothing once again
Is there shame for what's been done
It screams so loud that you can't begin
'Cause you're always on the run
If it's the taste you remember
You may not share in this sweet delight
Yeah, we can live forever
If there's a time we can get it right
Roll me under, I'll pull the trigger for ya
Do with me what you will
Hold me under, the water running over
Do with me what you will
Oh
Yeah
Oh
Yeah
Roll me under, I'll pull the trigger for ya
Do with me what you will
Hold me under, the water running over
Do with me what you will
Do with me what you will

Never Enough
You're all bark
But no bite
It's alright
You'll live a little
It's okay
You're on fire
You have style
It's just a little wild
What a poor little baby
Ah, such a poor little baby
No, it's never enough
You hide it away
Where no one can touch
Now you tell me that you can do better
But we both know you can't 'cause you'll never
Put away your anarchy
'Cause now we both know that you're no good for me
In the dark
Without light
It's alright
You'll live a little
It's okay
You conspire
With desire
It's just a little wild
What a poor little baby
Ah, such a poor little baby
No, it's never enough
You hide it away
Where no one can touch
Now you tell me that you can do better
But we both know you can't 'cause you'll never
Put away your anarchy
'Cause now we both know that you're no good for me
No, this is never enough
You hide it away
Where no one can touch
It's never enough
It's just never enough
You hide it away
Where no one can touch
Now you tell me that you can do better
But we both know you can't 'cause you'll never
Put away your anarchy
'Cause now we both know that you're no good for me
No good for me

The Art Of Letting Go
You can drive, you don't even know me
I don't mind, I'll just take the back seat
Close my eyes, 'cause I just need to rest now
I'm so tired, from always running in and out
Get in line, just another repeat
Keep in time, we're moving to the new beat
Close my eyes, 'cause I just need to rest now
I'm so tired, from always running in and out
Of all the places I have gone
And all the faces I have known
They never seem to feel like home
And now it's time for letting go
I hope to see your smile again
But some day's far too long of a road
The art of letting go
I may be setting myself up to have to
Walk the streets alone
For letting go
You can drive, I don't even know me
Take your time, it's only for the lonely
It's in your eyes, and I don't need to rest now
I'm alright, it's never hard to figure out
Find the time, we don't need a repeat
Keep in mind, we're moving to a new beat
A rise in tide, out there is the feeling
I'm so tired, but only when I'm breathing
Of all the places I have gone
And all the faces I have known
They never seem to feel like home
And now it's time for letting go
I hope to see your smile again
But some day's far too long of a road
The art of letting go
I may be setting myself up to have to
Walk the streets alone
For letting go
I hope to see your smile again
But some day's far too long of a road
The art of letting go
I may be setting myself up to have to
Walk the streets alone
For letting go

Finest Hour
You never said goodbye
It left a void that's like no other
I know because it's true
A darkness hid inside
Another storm has scorned another
I know because of you
And now
I know the pressure you were under
Behind your eyes there lied a war
I never thought you'd be another
Another thought and I was up
Here in your finest hour
This is your finest hour
I won't forget that smile
It was contagious like no other
I know because it's true
I'll hold our precious time
Up to the sky, I'll miss you brother
I hope you know it's true
And now
I know the pressure you were under
Behind your eyes there lied a war
I never thought you'd be another
Another thought and I was up
Here in your finest hour
This is your finest hour
Here in your finest hour
This is your finest hour
Oh and now
I know the pressure you were under
Behind your eyes there lied a war
I never thought you'd be another
Another thought and I was up
Here in your finest hour
This is your finest hour
Here in your finest hour
This is your finest hour

Good Shoes
A new tradition
Go put your good shoes on
what's your position
And where do you belong
Let's break away from these
These ties before we're gone
Repeat transmission
Thought you were nearly on
I dig your revision
Let's play your favorite song
Let's break away from these
These ties that should be gone
I'm going down, down, down
I hope she lets me in
I'm going down, down, down
I hope she lets me in
The first decision
The one that puts you on
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Let's break away my sweet
'Cause soon we will be gone
I'm going down, down, down
I hope she lets me in
I'm going down, down, down
I hope she lets me in
There comes a day when you say
That you're left here all alone
There comes a time when you find
That you're out here all alone
I'm going down, down, down
I hope she lets me in
I'm going down, down, down
I hope she lets me in

Reds & Blues
I've had no tolerance for days
What's that color that you use
Forever
In my experimental phase
All these colors that turn blue
Together
I'd rather sleep out on the Avenue
Than hold onto those pieces
Of all the things you thought you never knew
You're better off wrong
Midnight afternoon
A window I can't see through
When I'm in my reds and blues
Welcome the monumental haze
All the wonder we once knew
Forever
There's been no sleep for several days
The struggle we went through
Together
I'd rather sleep out on the Avenue
Than hold onto those pieces
Of all the things you thought you never knew
You're better off wrong
And where you lie is where a flower grows
Won't make a sound for the brand new day
Midnight afternoon
A window I can't see through
When I'm in my reds and blues
