Life
A thousand days ago
Hours
Sinking in a hole
Try
To melt into all the walls
Now
I am here inside the cold

Here in the dark
Where no one stayed behind me

Now
A thousand days have gone
Again
Like the sun and moon at war
And
Give or take a thousand more

Here in the dark
Where no one stayed behind me
I'll be on my own side
You know where to find me
You know where to find me

Here in the cold
Where no one stayed beside me
I'll be on my own side
You know where to find me
You know where to find me

Born
with a thousand little holes
And tear to fill up everyone
A thousand to ignore

I'll be on my own side
I'll be on my own side
I'll be on my own side
Hey

God this song is awesome. One of their best ever, I think. I think ultramegaunknown pretty much nailed it. When I saw Soundgarden this past January at Terminal 5 in NYC, I was praying that they would play this... I had to wait until the encore, but as soon as I heard that guitar riff I went nuts, I remember standing in the pit surrounded by moshers with my arms spread... hahaha, it was great.
