Cover art for Got You Down lyrics by Paul Westerberg

This song reminds me of the last guy I dated - I ultimately couldn't stand him, but he would say eerily incisive things about me and knew just how to make me angry (or happy). I think that, in this song, it's about a girl processing the end of a relationship with a guy like this - he's "got her down" in the sense that he knows her really well, and in the sense that, even though she's probably better off without him, she misses being with him.
