about

The lyric is directed at a junkie friend who seemed to have a death wish. He's OK now, fortunately. I owe an inspirational debt to the Groundhogs for the main riff. This track was recorded with the original 1992-1995 "Earthworm" lineup, which only played a few live shows.

lyrics

Take yourself back and down around until you lose yourself
And when the light breaks in - confuses you - you bite your tongue
But who can say just when you'll come around, the next rebound
What's outside in is just the ending now, that's just begun

Your eyes are blackened holes, your hands are cold, your skin is numb
Looks like you found a place inside your head where I can't come
The time is passing by - let it pass - pass away
Don't let me wake you, let me touch you, let me see

(Chorus) I can't believe that you're free
See things I don't want to see
And so you're bringing me down
Bringing me down

Your only life is winding down into a darkened hole
Winding it down, winding it down
And how much longer can you run and hide from sun and sky
Beneath the leaves and grass there's comfort there beneath the ground

(Chorus) Can't stand to see you this way
Say things I don't want to say
Because you're bringing me down
Bringing me down
