Perhaps è ufficialmente pubblicato: il testo dell’inedito dei Guns N’ Roses

Il nuovo pezzo dei Guns N’ Roses, Perhaps, ha finalmente visto la luce ufficialmente. Nato nell’era Chinese Democracy, album di inediti registrato senza il contributo di Slash e Duff, ma inciso e pubblicato su spinta e intenzioni unicamente di Axl, Perhaps è il terzo singolo scartato dal disco. Il 6 agosto 2021, dopo 13 anni dall’uscita di Chinese Democracy, era uscito Absurd, non inedita, ma è un rifacimento di Silkworms. Il 24 settembre dello stesso anno Hard Skool, anche questa scartata da Chinese Democracy.

Perhaps I was wrong
When I didn’t see you, hey, hey
Perhaps I was wrong, hey
When I don’t believe you

But how would I know how it feels
Or what it takes to be you
I’ve been so upset
Harboring this hate for days

Hey, my sense of rejection
Hey, hey
Is no excuse for my behavior, hey
You pulled the gun, hey, hey
That shot and crucified my savior
Now he is no more and I am without you
Just like I was before
The way I used to be, hey
What a weight upon your shoulders that you don’t need
My heart bleeds for me

Got a lot more than I bargained for
You’re all alone now
You forgot about the others you were fighting for
You’re all alone
Ooh, sold out to the ones that you once ignored
You’re all alone now
You used to be a little crazy now there’s so much more
You’re all alone

Perhaps I was wrong, hey, hey
When I didn’t see you, hey, hey
Perhaps I was wrong, hey
When I don’t believe you

But how would I know how it feels
Or what it takes to be you
I’ve been so upset
Harboring this hate for days
Oh-oh, what a weight upon your shoulders that you don’t need
My heart bleeds for me

Ooh, got a lot more than I bargained for
You’re all alone now
You forgot about the others you were fighting for
You’re all alone
Ooh, sold out to the ones that you once ignored
You’re all alone now
You used to be a little crazy now there’s so much more
You’re all alone
