Ain't That Tough - Soul Asylum

A sweet scent of discontent rising in the air

You don’t get old you just get passive and then you stand and stare

Hey nobody’s keeping you from stopping

Like a bulb without a socket your finger trigger’s itching but you forgot to

cock it

And things didn’t turn out the way you thought they would be

No you can’t take that out on me

If you can find a better way then I ain’t standing in your way

I’m fed up with holding out I called your bluff now let it out

You were thinking you were never never never enough it ain’t bad luck it’s just

that you ain’t that tough

Ain’t that tough ain’t that tough

A graveyard of bottles and a ??

If you’re so brave why’s a .45 hang from your hips

Nobody’s keeping you from stopping

You’re always threatening to kill yourself well why don’t you just do it right

here, right now

I didn’t turn out the way you thought I would be

No you can’t take that out on me

I thought I was talking to someone else I guess I was talking to myself

I’m fed up with holding out I called your bluff now let it out

You were thinking you were never never never enough it ain’t bad luck it’s just

you ain’t that tough

Last time I saw you you were talking just like me

Now you’re talking like some hollywood actress, what the hell’s that supposed

to mean?

You ain’t that tough you ain’t that tough…
