Down Down Down is about the futile pursuits of vanity. Everybody faces the eventuality of death, where the luster of gold won't shine from the deep dark ground, and where character will have mattered more than accumulation.
"Everybody forging golden names
Everybody stacking stones in vain
Everybody digging shallow graves
Going down down down
Wearing cold dark crowns"
lyrics
INTRO
Ooh ooh
V1
Everybody going out the same
Everybody gonna end their days
Everybody dig a shallow grave
Going down down down
In the deep dark ground
CH
Bye da die die (3x)
Bye da die die die die
REFRAIN
Ooh ba da da da (3x)
Down deep dark ground
V2
Everybody forging golden names
Everybody stacking stones in vain
Everybody digging shallow graves
Going down down down
Wearing cold dark crowns

Cataloging lyrics and sounds like lines of latitude and longitude. Songs of sojourn. Songs of shipwreck. Songs of new continents edged by the tide of the human sea. (indie folk / singer-songwriter) The Woodlands
