lyrics :
We chase misprinted lies
We face the path of time
And yet I fight
And yet I fight
This battle all alone
No one to cry to
No place to call home
Oooh... Oooh...
Oooh... Oooh...
My gift of self is raped
My privacy is raked
And yet I find
And yet I find
Repeating in my head
If I can't be my own
I'd feel better dead
Oooh... Oooh...
Oooh... Oooh...

This was one of my dads favourite covers. Larry Vank October 7, 1969 - March 23, 2023 Father of 5 and the most loving husband to my mother Nicole. Though he was my stepdad technically- he raised me from when I was 2 years old. He chose us as his children. Greatest father to have ever lived. Jeremiah, Eva, Alex, Amber, Mom and I all look forward to seeing you one day and having our music sessions once more.

@opethopeth Год назад

I've listened to this song so many times after my dad passed away. He didn't want to live anymore, but I don't blame him - he was in so much pain in his last year. This song and Dallas Green's soothing voice has comforted me over and over again. "I Fight this battle all alone" etc. gives an idea of the despair Layne had. Not to mention the lyrics in Dirt. It's so dark. His bandmembers tried to help but I guess the drugs really had a big grip on him. Poor guy.

@modusceo Год назад

Mark was the only one really allowed near him around him for the last years, and he said he just hoped that some big emergency would put Layne in the hospital and give him some time to kick, but it never came. He was literally the closest person and friend to the two biggest rockstars dying in the 1990's.

@scottcooneymusic6736 6 лет назад

FacePlant Layne wrote the song man. And by stating that he's paying tribute to Layne and the band I'm not discounting Jerry's contribution. Jerry wrote the majority of the band's catalogue and I'm well aware of that fact. Layne's vocals were what made the songs sore. If you can't recognize that fact then you shouldn't consider yourself a true fan of the band.

@tomwolfe6063 7 лет назад

People typically don't understand when older AIC fans say that every song is about heroine. Of course, this song is about fame and holding on to one's identity......but it's also about heroine. It bleeds into every aspect of the artist's expression and remains as the layer beneath. Every song has a oily black vein corroding the soul from within and that( in a strange way)makes it even more beautiful.

@marissalo94 7 лет назад

Great job. Exactly what a cover should be. Dallas puts in his own flavour and does a great job with the vocals, arrangement and emotion.

@nickpapaganeres2576 4 года назад

Wow, never heard of this guy and this is my favorite song of all time. He did a fantastic job. Its hard to compete with the original but he put his own touch on it and its beautiful.

@skyloratwell1524 4 года назад

If you enjoy this style from him, check out "nowhere, Texas" or "coming home". The second one is very close to this sound in this version. You'll love it!

Oh man, you’re missing out! City and Colour have so many great tunes, especially when you’re just in a mood.

@nathanchildress5596 3 года назад

And if you guys are down with some heavier stuff, check out his original band Alexisonfire! Probably the greatest post-hardcore bands of the early 00's. What a career Dallas Green has had.

best version of this song I've heard to date keep it up man you are the perfect example as to why musicians don't need to quit

@danielmcmahon2006 6 лет назад

shivers down the spine with cover, well done my brother. You should feel proud indeed!

@Enkiguy 10 лет назад

Nicely done cover. A different approach than the original. Layne will always be my favorite vocalist.

@riddhidev 8 лет назад

Good idea. The fact that the song was covered by an accoustic expert like Dallas Green means that its originality and subtlety will be preserved, plus you will get the vintage City n Color touch to it.

I miss the old school Dallas Green

@brendavictor4924 8 месяцев назад

I think it is so fucking hard to put into words how hearing Dallas sing so many songs (his or cover) makes me feel. Haunts me, touches my soul, makes me weep, makes me think about things I never thought of before, his singing actually makes me want to be a better human being! I can't get enough of his voice and the feelings that it makes me feel. His music is such a gift and I don't know if I'm worthy but I sure will try to be! ❤

@tommytwotone81 Год назад

That being said this is the only man who brought a tear to my eye with this song other than Layne

@beezybeez5971 Год назад

This is so good but you must hear “Live Not Survive” or “Winding Road” by SLT 🤘🔥🎸

@buggut 5 лет назад

Of course we all miss Layne. Of course no one can sing this song with as much emotion and heart wrenching turmoil as Layne . Its because Layne wrote it. But Dallas is not trying to. He is just playing and singing a beautiful song in his own way. Not a competition but a tribute to Layne and obvious admiration for such a perfect song. I love it. I felt as if Dallas played the song with as much emotion as anyone except for Layne. He is obviously a fan that loved and respected Layne and his otherworldly talent

@dylancopp3073 4 года назад

I lost my older brother October 1st to drug overdose. I joined the military about a year and a half prior so I could learn self discipline and would one day be able to return home and live with him. His death rattled me. Nutshell has always been my favorite song, it was the first song I ever played at an open mic and it always made me feel back at home. This version brought me to my knees as many forgotten memories of my brother showed themselves. This version is so gentle and so beautiful. Thank you Dallas, if you ever see this.

@coreysanko 3 года назад

I feel for you. Thank you for your service. Im a recovering addict who's lost dozens if ppl, family to drugs and overdoses. I can relate, so sorry for your loss brother. My prayers are with u 🙏

@mikesmitheringsonton6439 6 лет назад

this song confounds me...how is one even supposed to respond to such beauty and sorrow at once...my ears devour it but my heart aches...this man is comprised of music...this is beyond music...its audible art...noone is a bigger fan of layne and i say to anyone criticizing this version doooood please just stop...the last thing a song of this beauty should do is divide us...shit we have enough legitimate things to divide us...cant you see this is a tribute to honor layne...its dripping in praise and adoration for him...and why are we comparing which version is better...its like arguing about whether love or compassion is a better emotion

@mrmysterious 6 лет назад

Couldn't have said it better.

@Yz85rider338 6 лет назад

Such a different direction than the grunge norm this song is typically covered with, yet it still fully conveys the exact emotion as Layne's original vocals, dare I say just as well as the original. Incredible work! Wasn't sure it was for me from the get go, yet here I am writing this thoughtful comment! Keep up with the incredible content!
