Album: Curb

Nickelback is an independant band that used to live in Hannah, Alberta, but
moved to Vancouver, BC, just for the big music scene. They've released two
CD's, Hesher, and Curb, both independantly. If you haven't heard them, they
sound almost like a cross between Nirvana and Bush. This is the first song
they played on the radio off of Curb, and no, it's not the same song that
Steppenwolf did a few years ago, and Blind Melon has a version of out now
of. This is a Nickelback original.

Lyrics
------

And some say, 'Why did father do something do wrong?'
So I asked him, and he convents, leave me for more.
Now it's over, and I see him, don't come back anymore.
And I say:

I need
I don't ask much anymore, yeah.
I've heard there's something.

Through this stone into the water, direct for this world.
Burn them babies, just for holding the candle too close.
Take it all back, search for justice, don't live there anymore.
And I say:

I need
I don't ask much anymore, yeah.
I've heard there's something.

And why, do you see me in this way?
I gave him, these till the end.
I bothered, not to believe in this way.
I begged him, just to see in this way.

I need
I don't ask much anymore, yeah.
I've heard there's something.
