Sad Sad City Lyrics

Been getting tired of my motor running
Feeling overheated 'cause my life keeps coming
My heart's been troubled by the speed of love

Searching these streets for a soul committee
Talking ideas of lust and pity
The fables I've found have no place in my home

Well I need you
To want me, hold me, tell me the truth
Yeah, I need you
To want me, hold me, tell me the truth

(Oh-oh-oh)
Ain't no party in a sad, sad city
(Oh-oh-oh)
Ain't no party in a sad, sad city

Well, we roll the dice, pay the price
Dance with wolves in a pack of lies
The blood we crave will drive us all insane

Outer space is a lovely place
A long lost love in a flower vase
Laying on the floor shattered, battered and bruised

Well I need you
To want me, hold me, tell me the truth
Yeah, I need you
To want me, hold me, tell me the truth

(Oh-oh-oh)
Ain't no party in a sad, sad city
(Oh-oh-oh)
Ain't no party in a sad, sad city

Well I need you
To want me, hold me, tell me the truth
Yeah, I need you
To want me, hold me, tell me the truth

(Oh-oh-oh)
Ain't no party in a sad, sad city
(Oh-oh-oh)
Ain't no party in a sad, sad city
(Oh-oh-oh)
Ain't no party in a sad sad city
(Oh-oh-oh) (uh-uh)
Ain't no party in a sad sad city (oh-oh-oh) (oh-oh-oh-oh)

What is the Meaning of Sad Sad City?

Struggling with life's relentless pace and feeling worn out, Chris Cornell dives deep into the theme of seeking genuine connection amidst chaos. The verses reveal his weariness and the empty pursuit of fleeting desires and falsehoods. Despite the overwhelming sense of disillusionment, there’s a yearning for truth and sincere companionship. The repetitive plea, "Well, I need you to want me, hold me, tell me the truth," underscores his desperate need for authenticity and emotional refuge. Ultimately, the song portrays a city devoid of joy, where superficiality and loneliness prevail without genuine human connection. #EmotionalStruggle #YearningForConnection
