Down in a Hole Songtext
von Alice in Chains

Bury me softly in this womb
I give this part of me for you
Sand rains down and here I sit
Holding rare 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
Oh, 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
Losing my soul
Down in a hole
Losing control
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
Losing my soul
Down in a hole
Losing control
I′d like to fly
But my wings have been so denied

Bury me softly in this womb (oh, I wanna be inside of you)
I give this part of me for you (oh, I wanna be inside of you)
Sand rains down and here I sit
Holding rare flowers in a tomb (oh, I wanna be inside of you)
Oh, I wanna be inside

Down in a hole
Losing my soul
Down in a hole
Feeling so small

Down in a hole
Losing my soul
Down in a hole
Out of control
I'd like to fly
But my wings have been so denied
