Grease Box Lyrics
Dig dig deep for yourself
Dig dig deep for your soul
Dig dig deep the black abyss
Dig dig deep for your own soul
What the hell's it mean?
And I said, "Hey, you're looking at me."
What the hell's it mean?
Six dead horses chase you down
Fourteen guns in your own town
Thirteen men run after you
Ten million babies your dad gave you
Like the little beast in a smokened room
sat writhing in pain all afternoon
salt from his tears bringing the blood to the surface
like dark haired fears make their way to the surface
What the hell's it mean?
And I said, "Hey, you're looking at me."
What the hell's it mean?
And you don't have to stand by me
And you don't have to stand, stand by me
And you don't have to stand, stand by me
And you don't have to stand
What the hell's it mean?
And I said, "Hey, you're looking at me."
What the hell's it mean?
Like the little beast in a smokened room
sat writhing in pain all afternoon
salt from his tears bringing the blood to the surface
like dark haired fears make their way to the surface
Just the sight of the belt makes his kids start to sting
Then one day we're feeling everything
Trees outside weather the bark on the wood
like the callous on your heart dropped place where it stood
What the hell's it mean?
And I said, "Hey, you're looking at me."
What the hell's it mean?
And you don't have to stand by me
And you don't have to stand, stand by me
And you don't have to stand, stand by me
And you don't have to stand
Dig dig deep for your soul
Dig dig deep the black abyss
Dig dig deep for your own soul
And I said, "Hey, you're looking at me."
What the hell's it mean?
Fourteen guns in your own town
Thirteen men run after you
Ten million babies your dad gave you
sat writhing in pain all afternoon
salt from his tears bringing the blood to the surface
like dark haired fears make their way to the surface
And I said, "Hey, you're looking at me."
What the hell's it mean?
And you don't have to stand, stand by me
And you don't have to stand, stand by me
And you don't have to stand
And I said, "Hey, you're looking at me."
What the hell's it mean?
sat writhing in pain all afternoon
salt from his tears bringing the blood to the surface
like dark haired fears make their way to the surface
Then one day we're feeling everything
Trees outside weather the bark on the wood
like the callous on your heart dropped place where it stood
And I said, "Hey, you're looking at me."
What the hell's it mean?
And you don't have to stand, stand by me
And you don't have to stand, stand by me
And you don't have to stand

wow... pretty sad that 3 out of the 4 comments of this song are just lyrics... fuck people start talking about tad there a fucking awesome band!!
Actually, these are the lyrics:
DIg dig deep For your self Dig dig deep FOr your soul Dig dig deep Dark black abyss Dig dig deep Bury you a soul
What the hell's in me? I said, "Hey, don't look at me" What the hell's in me?
Six dead horses chase you down Fourteen guns in your hometown Thirteen men run after you Ten million babies your dad gave you
Like a little beast in a sparkle robe Sat writhing in pain all afternoon Salt from his tears bringing blood to the surface Like dark-haired fears make thier way to the surface
What the hell's in me? I said, "Hey, don't look at me" What the hell's in me?
And you don't have to stand Stand by me And you don't have to stand Stand by me And you don't have to stand Stand by me
What the hell's in me I said "Hey don't look at me" What he hell's in me
Like the little beast in a sparkle robe Sat writhing in pain all afternoon Salt from his tears bringing blood to the surface Like dark haired fears make thier way to the surface
Just as you tie that belt Makes your skin start to sting Then one day you're feeling everything Trees outside weather the bark and the war Like a callous on your heart where a face once stood
What the hell's in me? I said, "Hey, don't look at me" What the hell's in me?
And you don't have to stand Stand by me And you don't have to stand Stand by me And you don't have to stand Stand by me
I think the song chronicles someone who turns to drugs as a way to deal with a broken heart, becomes hopelessly addicted, and then tries to quit, and goes through withdrawl, parallelling the suffering of withdrawl with the suffering of the end of a relationship.
Dig dig deep for yourself Dig dig deep for your soul Dig dig deep the black abyss Dig dig deep for your own soul
What the hell's it mean? And I said, "Hey, you're looking at me." What the hell's it mean?
Six dead horses chase you down Fourteen guns in your own town Thirteen men run after you Ten million babies your dad gave you
Like the little beast in a smokened room sat writhing in pain all afternoon salt from his tears bringing the blood to the surface like dark haired fears make their way to the surface
What the hell's it mean? And I said, "Hey, you're looking at me." What the hell's it mean?
And you don't have to stand by me And you don't have to stand, stand by me And you don't have to stand, stand by me And you don't have to stand
What the hell's it mean? And I said, "Hey, you're looking at me." What the hell's it mean?
Like the little beast in a smokened room sat writhing in pain all afternoon salt from his tears bringing the blood to the surface like dark haired fears make their way to the surface
Just the sight of the belt makes his kids start to sting Then one day we're feeling everything Trees outside weather the bark on the wood like the callous on your heart dropped place where it stood
What the hell's it mean? And I said, "Hey, you're looking at me." What the hell's it mean?
And you don't have to stand by me And you don't have to stand, stand by me And you don't have to stand, stand by me And you don't have to stand
I think that's almost close to perfection.
Personally, I think the song is about an abusive fathers and how pain becomes a registered response (flinching before something even happens) amongst the children which then later in life leads to paranoia (everyone is out to hurt you) and difficulty overcoming fears. But, the gift of this is letting go of the past by confronting it, overcoming those fears, and you gain the ability of intuition.
lol. so no one knows what the lyrics are. awesome.
Tad-Grease Box Lyrics,
Dig, Dig, deep, for yourself Dig, Dig, deep, for your soul Dig, Dig, deep, the black abyss Dig, Dig, deep bury you a soul
What the hell's in me or it mean or both (don't look at me) what the hell's in meeeeeeee
Six dead horses chase you down 13 guns in your hometown 13 men run after you 10 million babies your dad gave you
Like the little beast in a sparkled room Sat writhing or writing in pain all afternoon Salt from his tears bringing blood to the surface Like dark-hidden fears make their way to the surface
What the hell's in me or it mean or both (don't look at me) what the hell's in meeeeeeee
And you don't have to stand, Stand by me And you don't have to stand, Stand by me And you don't have to stand, Stand by me And you don't have to stand,
What the hell's in me or it mean or both (don't look at me) what the hell's in meeeeeeee
Like the little beast in a sparkled room Sat writhing or writing in pain all afternoon Salt from his tears bringing the blood to the surface Like dark-hidden fears make their way to the surface
Just the sight of that belt makes your skin start to sting Then one day were feeling everything Trees outside wither the bark on the wood Like the callous on your heart saw a face or place were it stood
What the hell's in me or it mean or both (don't look at me) what the hell's in meeeeeeee
And you don't have to stand, Stand by me And you don't have to stand,
I think this song means not being excepted by other people who think of you as strange and abnormal. Calling someone a name like grease box. You don't have to stand by me if i offend you in anyway, but this is who i am. there must be sometihng wrong with me, so maybe i have some kind of beast within that has feelings like everyone else. Why would you want to hurt mine.
