Down In A Hole | Alice In Chains

Bury me softly in this wombI give this part of me for youSand rains down and here I sitHolding rare flowersIn a tomb… in bloom

Down in a hole and I don’t know if I can be savedSee my heart I decorate it like a graveOh, you don’t understand who they thought I was supposed to beLook at me now I’m a man who won’t let himself be

Down in a hole, feeling so smallDown in a hole, losing my soulI’d like to flyBut my wings have been so denied

Down in a hole and they’ve put all the stones in their placeI’ve eaten the sun so my tongue has been burned of the tasteI have been guilty of kicking myself in the teethI will speak no more of my feelings beneath

Down in a hole, feeling so smallDown in a hole, losing my soulI’d like to flyBut my wings have been so denied

Bury me softly in this wombOh I want to be inside of youI give this part of me for youOh I want to be inside of youSand rains down and here I sitHolding rare flowersOh I want to be inside of youIn a tomb… in bloomOh I want to be inside…

Down in a hole, feeling so smallDown in a hole, losing my soulDown in a hole, feeling so smallDown in a hole, out of controlI’d like to flyBut my wings have been so denied
