Lyrics for Hit the Ground as interpreted by Bskiffington

Hit the Ground Lyrics
Anesthetized by these lies
I don't believe in truth
And I apologize
But my sacrifice
Has nothing to do with you
'Cause I've been victimized
Like ocean size
From the blood your needle drew
And I apologize
But my demise
Has everything to do with you

Settle up with the devil
Close the basement door
Full force on the shovel
And unearth the floor
You were there one day
But you're here no more
Like a steak through the heart
And you play the whore
'Cause you stole my soul
Kleptomaniac
Now I can hate myself take my anger back
Love is a violent attack (love is a violent attack)

You cut me down
I feel no pain now
This nightmare is almost through
I hit the ground
No need to feel now
My time here is all but done
All but done

Now I'm up in the attic
Where the rafter's strong
So many reasons to be tragic
And the list is long
If you think I've lost hope
You were never wrong
'Cause the churning of the rope
Is my battle song

Settle up with the devil
Close the basement door
Full force on the shovel
And unearth the floor
You we're there one day
But you're here no more
Like a stake through the heart
And you play the whore
'Cause you burned my soul
Pyromaniac
You can hate yourself take your anger back
Love is a violent attack (love is a violent attack)

You cut me down
I feel no pain now
This nightmare is almost through
I hit the ground
No need to feel now
My time here is all but done
All but done
All but done

I can't stand on my own feet now
I can't crawl forever and a day
Felt like I was getting stronger
Before you turned and you walked away

You cut me down
I feel no pain now
This nightmare is almost through
I hit the ground
No need to feel now
My time here is all but done
You cut me down
I feel no pain now
This nightmare is almost through
I hit the ground
No need to feel now
My time here is all but done

I apologize
But my demise
Has everything to do with you

All but done

I apologize
But my demise
Has everything to do with you

All but done

I apologize
But my demise
Has everything to do with you

sounds like someone REALLY important in his life just left him, in a horrible way, apparently.

The part about the attic sounds like he's planning to hang himself using the rafters in the attic and ropes.

the chorus:

You cut me down
I feel no pain now
This nightmare is almost through
I hit the ground
No need to feel now
My time here is all but done
All but done

after listening through it again and again, it seems to me this is more literal than figurative. just like the dude above me who talks about him hanging himself, which the song is undoubtedly about, the chorus is somebody literally cutting the rope he's hanging himself with, as he falls to the ground. it also kinda sounds like it was too late, and he's dead anyway
