Chip Away Lyrics
I chip away
Cause I'm not ok
So I
I chip away
Poked a hole right into myself
And inside I found someone
Who said I was O.K.
Still I don't feel easy
On this tree
Among the blossoms
Caustically
I am the thorn
Close my eyes to take up spare time
I wish I just
Could be where the crowd goes
Cause with the crowd
They must be going somewhere
Up from the catacombs
I ran into the angel again
He took the high road
And I took the low road
We both wore dirty faces
We both wore dirty faces
I don't
I don't
I don't
Don't feel easy
I don't
I don't
I don't
Don't feel easy
I don't know
I don't know
I don't....
I think it is pretty obvious that it is about shooting heroin and the feelings of isolation that it sometimes leads to.
I love this song, it has such a dark feel.
A good deal of Jane's songs are releated to this subject
