Sandman
Studio Version

Where is the ritual
And tell me where where is the taste
Where is the sacrifice
And tell me where where is the faith
Someday there'll be a cure for pain
That's the day I throw my drugs away
When they find a cure for pain
Where is the cave
Where the wise woman went
And tell me where
Where's all that money that I spent
I propose a toast to my self control
You see it crawling helpless on the floor
Someday there'll be a cure for pain
That's the day I throw my drugs away
When they find a cure for pain (x2)
When they find a cure find a cure for pain

2) Down Love's Tributaries
Time: 8:08
Sandman

Meanwhile
Down love's tributaries
In a canoe on my knees
She takes me anywhere anywhere she please
Vines surround us long and red
Curling around our arms and legs
Breaking through we have a drink and somehow find ourselves in sync so
We continue on and on there's no time to think right now
Perhaps another day is lost

3) Shame
Time: 2:44
Sandman

I felt bad but there was nothing I could do about it
Nothing I could do to make it go away
I felt bad but there was nothing I could do to change it
Nothing I could do to make things change
This is my shame (x2)
I felt bad but I keep trying to kid myself about it
Trying to tell myself it was an honest mistake
I felt bad but what's done is done
Just one thing remains
This is my shame (x2)
I know your mad at me
I know you want to cut my throat
I know you think I think it's all a joke
I don't (x2)
I felt bad but there was nothing I could do about it
Nothing I could do to make it go away
I woke up and thought
Everything's going to be allright
Everything's going to be ok
Then it hit me like a wave (x2)
This is my shame (x3)
Woh

4) My Brain
Time: 2:45
Sandman

My whole brain was out of tune (x2)
I don't know how to tune a brain do you
Went into a brain shop
They said they'd have to rebuild the whole head
I said well do what you got to do
When I got my brain back
Didn't work right
Didn't have as many good ideas
Haven't really had a good idea since I got it fixed
