Blind Dogs

I think the song is about blind faith. The "blind dogs" in this song represent people who disregard reason in favour of illogical personal beliefs. Although Cornell makes reference to religion ("The safe bet is on your knees, Bow your head to the Trinity"), I think the song applies to people in general, and that you should keep an open mind to different ideas.

"Suffer to swim and dying to sink These things in the air They will make you think"

This makes the song in my opinion. It really drives home the point of keeping an open mind.

this is my favourite soundgarden song, it was meant to be on superunknown but didn't make the cut, it was realeased on the basketball diaries soundtrack though, so it is available for our greatful ears.

One of the only good songs on the Basketball Diaries soundtrack. Really good...

ah those 'alive in the superunknown' days these guys were everything i love about rock music this one is a tight slow heavy groove, with such an incredible menacing gtr riff i love it really powerful stufff gives me chills everytime as far as lyrics go i believe Cornell expresses some anger,disbelief and confusion over this world and possibly having a go at religion too as he rarely forgets to do :)

in all its just a great pure rock song

I'm assuming this is about blind faith 'nuff said.
