Sixx:A.M. - Accidents Can Happen Lyrics






Don't give up, it takes a while
I have seen this look before
And it's alright
You're not alone
If you don't love this anymore
I hear that you've slipped again
I'm here 'cause I know you'll need a friend

And you know that accidents can happen
And it's okay,
We all fall off the wagon sometimes
It's not your whole life
It's only one day
You haven't thrown everything away.

Take some time and learn to breathe
And remember what it means
To feel alive
And to believe
Something more than what you see
I know there's a price for this
But some things in life you must resist

And you know that accidents can happen
And it's okay,
We all fall off the wagon sometimes
It's not your whole life
It's only one day
You haven't thrown everything away.

I hear that you've slipped again
I'm here 'cause I know you'll need a friend

And you know that accidents can happen
And it's okay,
We all fall off the wagon sometimes
It's not your whole life
It's only one day
You haven't thrown everything away.

You know that accidents can happen
And it's okay,
We all fall off the wagon sometimes
It's not your whole life
It's only one day
You haven't thrown everything away.

So don't give up
It takes a while.

    Cliché as it sounds, I can relate to this song so much

  4. T.... ....

    This song saved my life back in 2012

  5. L.... G....

    I was ALMOST a year clean from self harm but I messed up. I fell asleep listening to my playlist last night and at 2 in the morning I randomly woke up and the line 'I hear that you be slipped again, I'm here cuz I know you need a friend' was playing, and wow! I love this song🖤

  6. M.... T....

    I like this song. It’s good. Accidents can definitely happen. But for me, it kind of feels like I did throw everything away. Because my accident wasn’t just one day wasted. My accident resulted in 8 straight years wasted away.

  7. S.... S....

    Don't give up, it takes a while
    I have seen this look before
    And it's alright

    And you know that accidents can happen
    And it's okay,

    And remember what it means
    To feel alive
    And to believe
    Something more than what you see
    I know there's a price for this

    And you know that accidents can happen
    And it's okay,
    We all fall off the wagon sometimes
    It's not your whole life
    It's only one day
    You haven't thrown everything away.

    I hear that you've slipped again
    I'm here 'cause I know you'll need a friend

    And you know that accidents can happen
    And it's okay,
    We all fall off the wagon sometimes
    It's not your whole life
    It's only one day
    You haven't thrown everything away.

  11. B.... S....

    All the music from this album hits home as I have been clean and sober since December 11, 1988. Guess who's birthday is on that day.

    B.... S....

    happy bday nikki

  12. R.... ....

    I hate myself for only just discovering this masterpiece! LOVE IT!

  13. m.... ....

    This is so amazing. I have demons I'm constantly fighting, spirit of death & suicide. I always try turning my negatives to positives, so far I find this Herion soundtrack really inspiring to keep up the fight. I just need to learn to love myself. I just don't know if I truly know how to love other than agape love. Is this a video cd or movie soundtrack?

    m.... ....

    Deus lhe abençoe

  14. l.... r....

    Omg im crying lol im kicking heroin after a 5yr run, a "friend" told me it was wax at 18 im 22 will be 23 in 2months. This wasn't supposed to fucking happen to me!!! Fuck! Fuck!!

  17. F.... W....

    Relapsed today. This is medicine to me right now

  18. R.... M....

    The video doesnt fit the music. It should be something more like "wasted time " by skid row.

  19. B.... D....

    Sometimes it seems my whole life was one big accident

    B.... D....

    Life is never an accident. I know that there are times when it seems that way. I know I have felt that way a lot since my wife died but if we carry on it does get better.

    Maybe I over-analyzed your comment and if so, I'm sorry but sometimes when I see someone who might be feeling down I want them to know they are not alone.

    B.... D....

    No i appreciate it. You didn't iver analyze. Its exactly how i feel most days. I am very sorry about your wife. I cannot imagine

  20. A.... g....

    Incredible song... And that guitar solo 🤘

  21. z.... ....

  33. B.... ....

    This song is so beautiful.  Picks me up sometimes, always makes me want to cry.

  34. A.... A....

    Nikki has turned something horrible in his past and used it for something positive. Maybe we can all learn from this and stay away from things that are destructive and stay with the positive.

  35. K.... P....

    Sublime. that's all.

  36. M.... S....

    musica muito bela.grupo de rock maravilhoso

  37. k.... ....

    Que maravilla de cancion,son unos genios estos señores.Desde España se les espera.
    Unos de los punteos de guitarra mas bonitos del rock.

    Every time I listen this song,makes me feel that I live : D

  39. S.... W....

    Love this song, gave me goose bumps

  40. C.... R....

    This song is so what I needed to hear... Nikki Sixx I can only hope we both stay clean. It only takes one relapse to die and we both belong here. I send this out to my daughter who is going thru it at its very worst and I'm hoping something let's her see the light. It's not a life worth living.

  41. S.... I....

    Love it

  42. G.... G....

    Nikki has done better... Relapse. Yeah i know all bout this. Herion meth sex r just a couple things i struggle with daily. Herion-God its killing me.

  44. J.... G....

    MY INSPIRATION !! TO SEE AND FEEL BEOND ME !!

  45. J.... G....

    I need to talk to you your son are more too me then you know I would Love to share with you and you band the streathe you've tout !!??

  46. T.... S....

    they nearly made me cry they should be more famous!

    T.... S....

    Tassy Smith I’m not sure Nikki Sixx could get more famous.

  47. J.... D....

    The first time I heard this song I cried my fucking eyes out. I've slipped more than once not only with cutting but prescription painkillers too. I did it for 2 whole years, started when I was 17 and I was strong enough to get help on my own at 19, after I voluntarily admitted myself into the psych ward. At the time I did those things I had no one there, I only recently heard this song and wished I had heard it each time I slipped. But now that I have heard it, it helps me and let's me know that I'm not alone in case I end up slipping again. I'm 24 now and in those years I've slipped twice.

    J.... D....

    I'm okay now. Each day is a struggle but I accomplish it everyday.

    J.... D....

    +Jaxden Derex I agree with you.... Everyday is a struggle just to stay away from that. I use to self harm, but in early February, I will be clean from SH for 2 years. You can stay strong and do it, if you need to talk, I am here

    J.... D....

    +Jaxden Derex All the best for you man, may God give you strength!

    J.... D....

    hope ull get out of this and find yourself, boy, with all my heart

  48. A.... G....

    <3 love it

  49. P.... C....

    Such a beautiful song from Nikki and these guys. I only liked Motley Crue a little, I never bought there music. This is so refreshingly different from M.C. Impressive~~~

  50. J.... G....

    Your a Revalation and inspiration in my life for each word youve spoke help me to look upon the stars to seek victory to over come the worlds sorrows . Thank u from my hole heart in today

  51. G.... J....

    This i call music!!

  52. A.... G....

    Thank you.

  53. M.... K....

    I only slipped once but I can never forgive myself..I pray God will forgive me...

    M.... K....

    I know it`s hard but you`ve got to forgive yourself and trust me God will forgive you! You just have to ask him and believe.

    M.... K....

    God isn't a scorekeeper. She just cares how you live in general....

    M.... K....

    Don't waste your time waiting for God to help... Just get out there and live your life best you can.. You only get one chance!

  54. E.... ....

    BMB BUCHANAN MUSIC BLOGGER facebook

  62. M.... S....

    Nikki is 54 years old ... and still very very very veeery sexy!!!♥

  63. C.... N....

    SIXX AM is so awesome. Its great to hear music that not only kicks ass but is something I can personally relate to, and for that I say thanks...

  64. O.... G....

    Nikki is a handsome beast, gotta admit...

  65. R.... d....

    i play in "Rottavirus" band ....we´re a rock/metal band,doing covers for a while ......if you check my channel you´ll find our videos,if i uploaded them in this account at all hahaha

  66. T.... M....

    This is fantastic

  67. C.... v....

    Who's drumming? I know Ashba's doing it when recording but who's playing live and in vids like this? Sixx:A.M. are my saviours, really. Whithout them I wouldn't have been here anymore. That sounds really sad.. Keep on going boys!<3

    C.... v....

    Me too, man. I was down in a hole, and sixx am helped me climb out.

  68. L.... ....

    Suprisingly, you're not the first straight guy to tell me that. Haha. Everyone, regardless of sexual orientation, is attracted to Nikki.

  69. L.... ....

    I fucking love nikki he is my # 1 man crush and im straighter than a quater mile drag strip ask my sisters theyll tell you

  70. L.... ....

    Nice! Who do you play for?

  71. R.... d....

    haha why is that so weird?Really?The bassist? hahahaha by the way i´m a bassist --'

  72. L.... ....

    You know, most people are obsessed with the front man of the band, but in both Sixx: A.M. and Motley Crue, I've been crazy about the bassist. A lot of my friends give me weird looks and are like "Really? The BASSIST?" But hey... It's Nikki Sixx.

  73. S.... ....

    Nikki Sixx is my hero i got his Epiphone signature bass guitar
    and i got heroin diaries and a few cds :) Most epic bassist with the best band EVER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  74. D.... ....

    No James is the drummer...

  75. a.... m....

    well, DJ Ashba does the drumming when they're recording.

  76. Y.... C....

    Who is sixx am's drummer? I thought they didn't have one

  77. V.... ....

    Never took drugs in all my life,but man I love this song.

  78. L.... ....

    I lost an Uncle to an addiction and I so wish he could have read Nikki's book and heard this Album. Its helped me to understand what was going on in his head a little and its heartbreaking. Love u Nikki xx and Uncle Nick I Miss you xx

  79. I.... V....

    by the way no sad songs say to give up or at least I haven't heard one so give me an example.It's not like I don't like sixx am just that a lot of bands have wonderful sad songs that have meaning.

  80. m.... a....

    sucks ya never thought when we were kids . now???

  81. C.... D....

    After many years of struggling with my addiction I have finally put away my demons. I relapsed after considerable time being clean. In jail I detoxed and then I remembered this song. I knew it was time for me to get clean or I would die. Nikki Sixx has been a idol since I was 15 yrs old ( 1983). I believe he writes music that speaks to me. His understanding is what a addict like me needs. I have been clean a couple yrs now. Thanks Sixx A.M...

  82. l.... /....

    only this much played?

  83. T.... ....

    Don't know who he is, but it seems like they have the same drummer on the Live shows also..

  84. r.... ....

    agree.
    them lads, belonging to the rock of 80's, seem to have guts and balls to drag through, unlike the modern pussy-metal bands, searching for suicide solely, giving up and yielding.

  85. s.... S....

    NIKKI SIXX MADE AN EXCELLENT CHOICE ON THE BAND MEMBERS HE COULDNT HAVE CHOSEN TWO BETTER PEOPLE JAMES MICHAEL AND DJ ASHBA FUCK YEA

  86. R.... S....

    This song has helped me through a lot in the past few months

  87. s.... ....

    <3<3<3NIKKI FUCKIN SIXX <3<3<3

  88. G.... -....

    All of sixx am are Legends :L

  89. B.... H....

    this video is so fucking inspirational. i made all the motherfuckers in my year lister to it in my forms assembly on inspiration. i fucking love Nikki and im only 14 o-O..

  90. B.... H....

    hell yeah... and Ashba too

  91. B.... H....

    ditto... and also Sixx... How can a 54 year old man be so fit?!?! its not fair...

  92. G.... -....

    Nikki sixx ! F*CKING LEGEND !

  93. a.... ....

    if you want some thing you will never give up on it and if you did give up on it you never really wanted that thing!

  94. s.... ....

    Glad we're no part of your 'culture' then eh. Aussie Aussie Aussie,

  95. M.... T....

    Actually your gender wasn't made clear in our exchange. It is also rather odd for a woman to call someone 'mate' in my culture so I have no issues with calling you a guy.

    And you still lost the exchange

  96. M.... T....

    For anyone that cares to notice look for the exchange b/w the this guy and I. He lost..badly. Like they say, when you have no argument or have lost just insult the winner.

  97. M.... T....

    Wow, do you know what he puts in the rubbish outside his house too?

    Duff is far better than Nikki as a player. Neither are in the Geddy Lee. Chris Squier, Les Claypool, Steve Harris league when it comes to rock bassists.

  98. M.... T....

    I was being sarcastic.

    Ashba is a pretty good player, Nikki is a terrible bassist, he can barely play. Nikki's skills are as a songwriter.


    I do agree on the vocalist, he has a great voice
