Lyrics for Song: Down In A Hole
Lyrics for Album: Music Bank [1999]
Bury me softly in this womb
I give this part of me for you
Sand rains down and here I sit
Holding red flowers
In a tomb... in bloom
Down in a hole and I don't know if I can be saved
See my heart I decorate it like a grave
You don't understand who they
Thought I was supposed to be
Look at me now a man
Who won't let himself be
Down in a hole, feeling so small
Down in a hole, losing my soul
I'd like to fly,
But my wings have been so denied
Down in a hole and they've put all
The stones in their place
I've eaten the sun so my tongue
Has been burned of the taste
I have been guilty
Of kicking myself in the teeth
I will speak no more
of my feelings beneath
Down in a hole, feeling so small
Down in a hole, losing my soul
I'd like to fly,
But my wings have been so denied
Bury me softly in this womb
Oh I want to be inside of you
I give this part of me for you
Oh I want to be inside of you
Sand rains down and here I sit
Holding rare flowers (Oh I want to be inside of you)
In a tomb...in bloom
Oh I want to be inside...
Down in a hole, feeling so small
Down in a hole, losing my soul
Down in a hole, feeling so small
Down in a hole, out of control
I'd like to fly but my
Wings have been so denied

Down In A Hole
Released on the 1999 compilation album Music Bank, "Down In A Hole" stands as a defining track in the discography of Alice In Chains. The song exemplifies the band's signature grunge sound, blending heavy, distorted riffs with the emotive, melodic vocals of Layne Staley. As part of the group's extensive catalog from the late 1990s, the recording captures the raw intensity and atmospheric depth characteristic of their work during that era. The track remains a staple of the band's live performances and has become a recognizable element of the Seattle sound, reflecting the emotional turbulence often explored in their music. Its inclusion on a compilation highlights its status as a significant contribution to the genre's legacy. |
