Wither Lyrics
Fill the hole with the single perforation
Makes the mountains look big enough from where I’m sitting
Poking through the skin you’re wearing
The spike has a way
Of dimming your life…
And so I’ll sit and watch you wither on by
And so I’ll sit and watch you wither on by
A miracle is what I’m asking
To take away the spike and spoon I see you sweatin’
And open up to the world your missing
Oh, if just for a day
Oh, it’s winning your life…
And so I’ll sit and watch you wither on by
And so I’ll sit and watch you wither on by
You are blowing away
Pulled from the roots
Don’t crumble from weight
Like a wave that broke too far from shore
And so I’ll sit and watch you wither on by
And so I’ll sit and watch you wither on by
Makes the mountains look big enough from where I’m sitting
Poking through the skin you’re wearing
The spike has a way
Of dimming your life…
And so I’ll sit and watch you wither on by
To take away the spike and spoon I see you sweatin’
And open up to the world your missing
Oh, if just for a day
Oh, it’s winning your life…
And so I’ll sit and watch you wither on by
Pulled from the roots
Don’t crumble from weight
Like a wave that broke too far from shore
And so I’ll sit and watch you wither on by

awareness of a friend's drug abuse... a certain bit of an ode to the late shannon hoon it seems.

Yeah, I totally agree with you. Maybe they're referring to any friend or aqcuaintance that is in drugs, especially heroin... But your answer is quite valid to me!

sorry.. I should have said "on drugs". And BTW, I really love this song! Despite the lyrics are meant to be sad, when I listen to this song, it makes me feel nostalgic and it's smoothing in some way.
