The Smashing Pumpkins

The Smashing Pumpkins (or Smashing Pumpkins) are an American alternative rock band from Chicago, Illinois. Formed in 1988 by frontman Billy Corgan (lead vocals, guitar), D'arcy Wretzky (bass), James Iha (guitar), and Jimmy Chamberlin (drums), the band has undergone many line-up changes. The current lineup features Corgan, Chamberlin, Iha and guitarist Jeff Schroeder. Disavowing the punk rock roots of many of their alt-rock contemporaries, they have a diverse, densely layered, and guitar-heavy sound, containing elements of gothic rock, heavy metal, dream pop, psychedelic rock, progressive rock, shoegazing, and electronica in later recordings.

To be born anew
To live and not quite lose 
To trust every day stay unchanged 
To be free and just be
As clear as eyes conceive 
To know what is known won't erase
Well, I say, I say shame
To any given 'morrow crossed 

'Cause I'll get by
Lover, like I do to haunt again
And rise where that sun 
Meets that rain
Taken by the two's in heart
Lover, I would choose to part again
Fain I, dare not lead, dare not pale

Maybe it's easy this way to love

When they took his name 
His works and robbed our pain 
Of it's alm and it's right to endure
In fear of useless slur 
I gave of any hollow crossed 

Cause I'll get by
Lover, like I do to haunt again
And rise where that sun 
Meets that rain
Taken by the two's in heart
Lover, I would choose to part again
Fain I, dare not lead, dare not pale
'Cause tears aren't, tears aren't a grail
And tears aren't, tears aren't for sale
Though I couldn't cry by design if I tried 

I'll get by
Lover, like I do haunt again
And rise
Taken by the two's in heart
Lover, I would choose to part again
And rise

Maybe it's easy this way to love
Or maybe it's easy this way to give up
