Lyrics
I'm gonna dig myself a hole
I'm expressing a desire to isolate myself or escape from something challenging.
And get my head inside
Seeking a mental retreat by withdrawing within myself.
I'm gonna keep my eyes closed
Intending to shut out external influences and focus inwardly.
Feel my heart dripping by
Sensing a profound emotional experience causing heartache or distress.
Life can be so ordinary
Reflecting on the mundane nature of life, possibly with a hint of dissatisfaction.
I did try to make mine good
Acknowledging efforts to lead a positive life but encountering challenges.
But I've made so many mistakes
Recognizing and regretting past errors or wrong decisions.
Down in my youth
Repetition of a phrase emphasizing reflection on mistakes made during youth.
Down in my youth
-Down in my youth
-Down in my youth
-Welcome to my house
Inviting someone into a personal space, possibly metaphorical.
We'll play for a while
Suggesting engagement or interaction within this shared space.
Can't you see
Possibly hinting at the presence of unresolved issues or lingering memories.
There's a ghost by my side?
Noticing or acknowledging the presence of something unsettling or haunting.
I'm gonna dig myself a hole
Repetition of the earlier lines (1-12); reinforcing the theme of retrospection and mistakes made in youth.
And get my head inside
-I'm gonna keep my eyes closed
-Feel my heart dripping by
-Life can be so ordinary
-I did try to make mine good
-But I've made so many mistakes
-Down in my youth
-Down in my youth
-Down in my youth
-Down in my youth
-Welcome to my house
Repetition of the invitation and engagement, suggesting a cyclical nature of experiences.
We'll play for a while
