Alice in Chains – Down In A Hole Lyrics 18 years ago
ok taking into consideration what jweezy1983 said... I think the song was intended for everyone to relate to. Jerry probably wrote it with his ex in mind but the rest of us have felt harsh loss as well. I think its a possibility that he wrote the song for others that relate to him. and maybe even a thing where, "If you need it explained then it wasn't meant for you." but sure Jerry wrote this incredible song, only he knows the motive behind the music. I say we enjoy it instead of getting pissed at people we don't even know... sound cool jweezy?

Sixx: A.M. – Girl With Golden Eyes Lyrics 18 years ago
She speaks to me in Persian - Persian is a type of heroin
Tells me that she loves me
The girl with golden eyes-heroin is normally gold colored
And though I hardly know her
I let her in my veins
And trust her with my life-He recognizes that he didn't know what he was doing with the heroin and the drug took over his life.

I wish I had never kissed her
'Cause I just can't resist her
The girl with golden eyes
Every time she whispers
'Take me in your arms-Illuding to the common injection area.
The way you did last night.'-In the morning you feel dope sick and a crazy urge for the drug. he feels like its calling his name so to speak.

Everything will be okay
Everything will be alright
If I can get away from her
And save my worthless life.-when you realize how dependant you are it is depressing. you have no sense of self value.

I wake up every morning-another referance to being dope sick
Jonesing for her love
The girl with golden eyes
I won't have to wait long-He knows its going to kill him.
'Til she buries me with roses
'Cause she's always by my side-Its always around, even when he tries to avoid it.

Everything will be okay
Everything will be alright
If I can get away from her
And save my worthless life.

(Spoken Word)
Day one. Dope free. I went to the clinic today and got the first dose of methadone. I'm out of dope so I threw away all my rigs.
Day two. I can't believe it's been two days without junk. Fucking smack, it just ruins peoples' lives. At first it seems so sweet, then you wake up next to a monster.
Day three. I haven't had anything for three days now. This withdrawal is killing me. It's like shock therapy to my guts.
Day four. Last visit to the clinic. My whole body feels like it's cracking into pieces. Fragile doesn't even come close to describing how I feel.
Day five-- I'm sick as a dog, but this handful of painkillers and a lotta whiskey's gonna get me through.
Day six-- When I'm left to my own devices I go fucking insane. I'll never use heroin again.
Day seven-- I can't believe I'm clean!
Day eight-- Everyone says I look better--
Day nine-- The parasites are panicking--
Day ten-- They seem amazed that I'm alive!

this is in his book (if you havent read it, its a great book) he talks talks about the first time he got clean. (I say the first time because I just read this part and I'm only half way through the book so there has to be more)

Everything will be okay
Everything will be alright
If I can get away from her
And save my worthless life.
Everything will be okay
Everything will be alright
If I can get away from her
And save my worthless life.
