PROVE YOURSELF
Released: May 1992 Length: 2:24 Disc: Pablo Honey | Stop Whispering single CD2 Tablature: Guitar Other Versions: Demo Version - Drill EP Live @ Black Session - Creep [Black Session EP] |
The first official single by the band. It didn't do well... released only in the UK, it peaked at #101 in the charts.
This song looks very seriously at suicide. Unfortunately, like most songs that become popular, the meaning tends to get lost in live performance: band members
were shocked to witness hundreds of kids singing "I'm better off dead" night after night. |
I can't afford to breathe in this town Nowhere to sit without a gun in my hand Hooked back up to the cathode ray I'm better off dead I'm better off dead I'm better off Prove yourself Prove yourself Prove yourself I want to breathe, I want to grow I'd say I want it but I don't know how I work, I bleed, I beg and pray But I'm better off dead I'm better off dead I'm better off Prove yourself Prove yourself Prove yourself I'm better off dead I'm better off dead I'm better off Prove yourself Prove yourself Prove yourself Prove yourself Prove yourself Prove yourself Prove yourself |
