Lyrics of
Glycerine

Glycerine was written by Gavin Rossdale, the lead singer of the band Bush. The story behind its creation reveals that Rossdale wrote the song during a moment of emotional vulnerability, reflecting on the complexity of relationships and the feeling of isolation. The title Glycerine symbolizes something sweet yet explosive at the same time, describing the contradictory nature of the feelings involved in love.

Must be your skin, I'm sinkin' in. Must be for real, 'cause now I can feel.
I didn't mind, it's not my kind. It's not my time, to wonder why.
Everything's gone white, everything's gray. Now you're here, now you're away.
Don't want this, remember that. I'll never forget, where you're at.

Don't let the days go by.
Glycerine Glycerine

I'm never alone, I'm alone all the time. Are you at one, do you lie.
We live on a wheel, where everyone steals. And when we rise, it's like strawberry fields.
Treated you bad, you bruise my face. Couldn't love you more, you've got a beautiful taste.

Don't let the days go by, Could've been easier on you.
I couldn't change, though I wanted to.
Should've been easier by three, Our old friend fear, and you and me.
Glycerine Glycerine
Don't let the days go by Glycerine
Don't let the days go by
Glycerine Glycerine
Glycerine Glycerine

Bad moon white again, Bad moon white again.
As she falls around me.

I needed you more, you wanted us less. Could not kiss, just regress.
It might just be, clear simple and plain. Well that's just fine, that's just one of my names.

Don't let the days go by,
Could have been easier on you you you
