Danzig - Going Down To Die Lyrics






And I know
That it's true
All the fire
Has burned thru
Well you know I've played
So hard
And the light
Grows so dim
And my time's getting slim
All the words
Just don't mean much

And I know I'm saying
Goodbye
And I know that I'm going
Down
To die

In my heart
There's a wind
And it swirls up a din
It's so loud
It drowns my mind
Till the coin that I pass
To the ferryman's grasp
Let's me leave
My pain
Behind

So I part
And I'm oh so cold
And I hope to release
My heart
Better leave
While my song still calls
It's the truth
That I'm going
Down
To die

    all good.

    B.... S....

    life is a burning rush is'nt it. ..

  6. T.... L....

    Danzig, Danzig II Lucifuge, Danzig III How The Gods Kill are almost perfect. Bluesy, sexy, just the right amount of menace and evil, pure beauty.

  7. G.... ....

    Lyrics:
    "I'm goin' down to die,
    Got a fuckin' black eye.
    The dude from NSK
    made me fuckin' well cry!
    Now my fans hate me,
    They say I'm a weed.
    Look at my pants -
    They're wet where I peed!"

  8. M.... M....

    I know, you Know and we All know!! Eventually!!

  13. J.... ....

    Best song, from the best album.
    Beautiful production.

  14. t.... f....

    The guitar solo sounds much better with a blunt,you just melt in with riffs

  15. r.... ....

    I dont know why i didnt listen to this guy back in the day before. Ive seen a few vids but never thought much him because i was into total thrash in the 80s and early 90s. But at 49 and mellowed out this is perfect music for me.Every song on thisxplaylist is awesome.

    I left home @ 16 moved 8 states away and I had my first stripper and she danced to this song. #bestmoveever

  24. S.... L....

    Whoever matched this to scenes from Leaving Las Vegas to make a video a few years ago please redo it. It was perfect. If not youtube, put it on Dailymotion so it won't get blocked.

  25. A.... C....

    Stop making me cry Danzig. It's not what I'm paying you for.

    ...wait a minute...I'm not paying him...

  26. A.... B....

    Pascal, we laid you down to rest in Normandy. Bye Bro.

    Whoever reads this and knows me play this loud when I die

  28. S.... A....

    .....and I know I'm saying goodbye....and I know that I'm going down to die!!!!!!!!!!! SO BE IT

  31. T.... Q....

  34. V.... V....

    me and my dad singing this right now together

  35. s.... ....

    endless love and torment! great song!!!

  36. R.... E....

    For some reason I see this song being played in a Western style movie. In a scene where a gun slinger is about to go to duel. Has this actually been done before? Nonetheless "Danzig 4" is my favourite Danzig album by a long way.

    R.... E....

    Bruh, you saying that makes me wish they would have properly made Stephen kings dark tower series and slapped it in there for the gunslinger 😔

  37. S.... A....

    Going down after being beaten up is Danzig's way.

  38. K.... M....

    Well you know.. I played, so hard.. fuck em all.

  39. M.... O....

    His singing goes beyond the usual boundaries. Best singer, songwriter of all times!

    M.... O....

    Idk man Dax Riggs might be better fr

  40. V.... t....

    NOSTALGIA 😍

  41. J.... F....

    Danzig is all you need to know!!

  42. D.... H....

    S.... A....

    Thank you! Embarrassing for Danzig. :)

  44. W.... S....

    Fuck I"m old but I miss the good old days.

  45. L.... I....

    I'd like this song a lot more if Danzig didn't sound like the god damned cookie monster half the time. it's a shame because this would be one of my favorites from him.

    L.... I....

    Cookie monster?

    L.... I....

    This is ridiculous

  46. D.... L....

    This is my funeral song xx

  47. a.... d....

    MAGNIFIC DYING SONG ...

  48. K.... Z....

    I Miss You So Much

  49. C.... B....

  50. J.... C....

    Danzig= kermit the frog, still love the song though

  51. J.... D....

    Killer solo

  52. T.... K....

    They will be blasting the hell out of this song at my funeral along with many other of his Misfits and Samhain tracks!

    T.... K....

    Same here.

    T.... K....

    that is sad. What else? The devil riding on a horse?

    T.... K....

    @Daniel Fisher this is a group for Danzig fans if your not go fuck yourself.

  53. J.... D....

  55. M.... ....

    DAMN DAMN this is such a great Danzig song and album

  56. T.... M....

    I'm saying goodbye

  57. S.... S....

    and I know
    that it's true
    all the fire
    has burned thru
    well you know i've played
    so hard
    and the light
    grows so dim
    and my time's getting slim
    all the words
    just don't mean much
    and I know I'm saying
    goodbye
    and I know that I'm going
    down
    to die
    in my heart there's a wind
    and it swirls up a din
    it's so loud
    it drowns my mind
    till the coin that i pass
    to the ferryman's grasp
    lets me leave
    my pain
    behind
    so I part
    and I'm oh so cold
    and I hope to release
    my heart
    better leave
    while my song still calls
    it's the truth

    @7.62 eclipse i'm sorry for your loss man. Must fucking suck.

    D.... R....

    Your brother picked a fine day to die. Right at the last day of winter. Just at the edge of spring.

  69. M.... M....

    there is soul in this song.you don't get that anymore

    M.... M....

    Check this my friend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pY67vhgdX6g

    M.... M....

    Yes I do

    M.... M....

    No theirs a loss in music . The new crap is not music.

    M.... M....

    @Craig Lester Good music will always exist. Just find it. Don't compare all music to what is going on, on MTV and the Radio my friend. Keep hunting.

  70. I.... B....

    I could see Barney Gumble from The Simpsons belting this out.... I mean that in a respectful way of Danzig. Who else knows about suffering better than an addict taken over by their demons, like Barney.

    I.... B....

    Buldinn Girshovich prolific!

    I.... B....

    Buldinn Girshovich Dude, I always thought the chorus sounded like Barney haha. I just didn't want to appear like a dick by saying it.

    I.... B....

    Brilliant 😂 now, make it happen internet!

    I.... B....

    And what we know from the Barbershopband-episode he has the pipes for it.

    I.... B....

    Dont cry for me I'm already dead

  71. m.... L....

    fuck that its playing on my death bed

  72. W.... S....

    One of the best Danzig's tracks ever

  73. K.... ....

    Heavy shit

  74. D.... ....

    I want this played at my funeral

    D.... ....

    That is sad

    D.... ....

    ALL Patriots should, for a real American is a warrior, NOT CONSUMED by designer drugs, A believer in Christ or the Evil One, for he serves Him.

    D.... ....

    I know a guy who knows a guy who can hook you up with some carfentynal . You wont feel a thing. I cant say how many thousand of souls it has taken every year around the world but i asure you its over 50,000 a year. You think theyd switch to somèthing lighter liks heroin or morphine.

    D.... ....

    Or maybe just before?

    D.... ....

    Why would it matter if it was played or not? You wont hear it. A friend of mine growing up said he wanted Slayer and Pantera played at his funeral. He got Nickleback instead.

  75. O.... 1....

    And I know that. . .

  76. x.... ....

    I remember there came a CD with my copy of Comix Zone for Sega, and this was the first song on the disc.. great intro to Danzig.

    x.... ....

    PesteNoire88 was there a beastie boys song on that album, too?! I think the CD said something like "Americana" on it or something... did we learn this song from the same CD brah?!

    x.... ....

    ukrajinac?

    x.... ....

    Yup, I had that too. It was a sampler for the American Recordings label. Wish I could find a rip of that album somewhere

    x.... ....

    Ahhhh good old Comix Zone....I also had the sampler, but lost it over the years.

  77. J.... L....

    Fuck, His voice and the feeling he puts into it. Amazing as hell.

  78. h.... M....

    this will play at my funeral

    h.... M....

    Mine too.

    h.... M....

    Hey Luci I am sending two down.....

  79. P.... M....

    I'm going down to die, who's with me

    P.... M....

    Marlies Oehring  hahaha Danzig is the main theme in hell man ! rock on !

    P.... M....

    P.... M....

    I’m just saying goodbye to all those who I’m required to

    P.... M....

    sorrowsuperstar10 Don’t.
    the beauty of nothingness, is the only absolute in this universe.

    Even me writing this, distorts it.
    But nothingness can’t be distorted ~


    The place that’s darker than black, more bright then every sun ~

    Nothingness I’ll see you in a few days~

  80. N.... N....

    I hate you all...But I like this...

    N.... N....

    @***** That's the spirit. 

  81. K.... L....

    That there is charisma.

    K.... L....

    Hey I ain't with cha but eye can get u there....

  82. c.... ....

    I grew up having the same cd and been trying to find it everywhere. I'm so happy to find most of them on here and I bought "words of a fool on iTunes. Your right though I was the same same way with music before I listened to this album. Great music kicked major ass. I jammed to it tonight while playing comix zone on my genesis collection on my PS3. Brought back so many memories. 😄

    c.... ....

    Gosh thanx 4 sharon

  83. R.... ....

    I hate my girlfriend

    R.... ....

    you can only hate what you love(d before)...

    R.... ....

    I hate her also, she bites my balls too hard

    R.... ....

    My girlfriend's girlfriend. She looks like...you

    R.... ....

    they are a nuisance

    R.... ....

    🤣 ya know you have a choice in the matter.

  84. D.... E....

    I want this song played at my funeral

  85. G.... L....

    WHY IS NOTHING HAPPENING???!!!! WTF???!!!

  86. b.... ....

    @wanfodao what do you mean?

  87. w.... a....

    AND I KNOW, THAT IT'S TRUE: DANZIG REALLY IS FUCK!!!!

  88. 7.... ....

    fucking great voice and song,,,danzig4ever,yeah

  89. C.... N....

    The dark Elvis

    C.... N....

    7 years late, but god damn you. hahaha

    C.... N....

    I always thought so too

    C.... N....

    I always thought that Danzig sounded like the dark Jim Morrison.

  90. c.... ....

    best danzig song EVER. nuff said

  91. D.... R....

    @kbwmetalhead Awesome =]

  92. k.... ....

    @MegaAzazel666 this kind of metal is classical music for me! and the guitar solo's feel my the depths of my soul with spirit that no other music can bring me =]

  93. D.... R....

    @kbwmetalhead i agree dude it is a beautiful solo us metalheads appreciate guitar solos like the one in this video i reckon we enjoy guitar solos like other people enjoy classical music but only beautiful guitar solos is like classical music for us

  94. C.... W....

    @NoRulesInNam True but that was a Bob Dylan song first,Iknow,Iknow,Just the facts.

  95. l.... ....

    straight forward kick ass music, no gimmicks. met danzig in passing once right when the Samhain box was being released. he was a super nice guy.

  96. A.... ....

    Why couldn't the rest of the album have been like this?

    A.... ....

    It is...listen

    A.... ....

    That ALBUM IS TOP NOTCH

  97. w.... c....

    if danzig would have put his hands up and prepared to fight instead leaving them at his side i think things might have been different first rule of fighting protect yourself at all times but thats besides the point the point is that security guard aint half as smart as glen i bet HE couldnt write even a bad song

  98. F.... ....

    What a voice... Amazing!

  99. B.... ....

    Glenn goes Kermit a little bit on the high notes, but he still sounds awesome. I love his bluesier songs like this.

  100. p.... ....

    @brithael138 ............man your right, I like the Johnny Cash angle..gets ya thinking
