- Dax Riggs - Grand Dark Feeling of Emptiness
i feel like i was born today
so i took it upon me to go away
to gather my thoughts and go away
where i could (be used by) somebody
now over the hill, like always you know
were billy and frankie and henry and joe
and they beat and broke me hard and slow
to prove i was nobody
and no one i was and so i remained
knocked-out in a hut, no mother, no name
and filled up my heart with one and the same
that grand dark feeling of emptiness
and was it a friend that turned me loose
or was it a girl come to baste my goose
or was it my great god who laid on his finger
and started my clock anew
ah no, it was rain
ah no, it was gunning
it was point break and buckle
and singing and cunning
that skinned me, re-skinned me
and started me running
and i never looked back from then on
and now i am learning bit by bit
about to make and model shit
the muddy bowl i live in it
and all the mucks that tire us
and im afeared if i dont have
a piglet, lamb, or little calf
ill chop my humanness in half
and be as worm or virus
but kids ive had and they are sung
upon folks ears my babes are hung
rhythmically they live among
and grow but dont get old
not in a box, not in a void
not if their voice is never heard
nor if no one repeats a word
but if their tune is told
then we can age and fall away
to meet again some golden day
and fill it in our happy way
in starlight and in gold
I saw him live countless times. He is so underrated. Nothing recorded can compared to hearing and seeing him live. So fucking amazing,golden voice!!!
Revisiting this today. Don't remember what year it was the first time I heard this but that doesn't matter. It hits just as heavy as it did back then. Absolutely fucking beautiful. Forever.
Same here. Incredible performance.
as a living being, this is the best thing ive ever heard of.
His voice makes me so emotional, not in a bad way, more comforting but still brings a tear to my eyes, his voice is like a ghost.
Jennifer Lawless gives me chill bumps on some songs
😏
His music illuminates the soul
That’s my Dogg. Grew up playing music He’s older than me. Started bringing me to Acidbath shows when I was about OMG
Dax has always had a very haunting voice. Once you hear it it stays with you ! No one like him !!!!
Such a voice. Who had the audacity to 'thumb down' this???
some people have no clue
Legend
I love this song its blood music for sure im in a trance!
Yup.. still hits my feelers!!
His voice gives me chills.
One of Will Oldham's best songs I like Dax's version the best and this is good quality thanks
I feel sorry for those who don't know...
love Dax
If i was a songwriter id pay riggs $ to sing my songs..just to hear it
Sounds like Curt Cobain, I love it! 🖤
fuckin great song...
At least 100 views are mine, the rest of you need to chip in more.
I'm at like 102 so yeahhhh
@@casey8378 oooh, but my post is 8 years old!
We should ping the IP of that comment, sniff em out and scream why... why... why would you thumbs down dax on anything. If dax wipes a shit smear on a paper plate and puts up for bid on e-bay, you better fucking be there refreshing 60 times a minute to get the top bid.
grow but dont get old
whats the song that he starts to play?
Oh to be Dax and have the "problem" of converting great songs with mediocre vocals into masterpieces!!!
Did Will Oldham cover this or did Dax Riggs cover Will Oldham?
Dax seems to like Bonnie prince Billy just to bad he does the song better.
Dax is God
