Turning in circles, slowing down
Pulling against a closing out
Easy to feed off a weaker thing
Harder to say what I really mean
Hollow as a mountain
All tunneled and drilled below
Hollow as a mountain
Crowned with a cold
Blue sky
All of colors turn to grey
Don’t even matter anyway
Bleeding impressions where you were tied
Can’t really say how I lost your mind
Hollow as a mountain
All tunneled and drilled below
Hollow as a mountain
Crowned with a cold
Blue sky
Silence! So loud! Silence!
I can’t tell my up from down
Silence! So loud! Silence!
I can’t tell my up from down
All of the faces life can show
Withered and ugly, the one you know
Hollow as a mountain
All tunneled and drilled below
Hollow as a mountain
Crowned with a cold
Blue sky
Silence! So loud! Silence!
I can’t tell my up from down
Silence! So loud! Silence!
I can’t tell my up from down
listening it after few years I can absolutely say that this is one of the most beautiful AiC songs of the new era. Very easy structure, deep sound and meaning. The video is the cherry on this perfect cake. Love it.
This song hits hard, it helped me keep together while my parents were in the middle of divorce and I was staying with a friend, going to a completely different school where I stayed mute until I moved in with my mom and found a new school, with real genuine people. Alice In Chains, since childhood they’ve been my go to.
