Brand New - At The Bottom Lyrics
Wait
I watched you throw out your bouquet
Now i think about you everyday
I'm alone now in my bed
And at the bottom you'll find all my friends
They don't swim cause they're all dead
We never are what we intend, or invent
'Cause I make little lies and then I pull them apart
Think something dark's living down in my heart
And if I wanted to die before I got old
I should've started some years ago digging that hole
Well, I carry this box to the proper place
I hope that you would do this for me
Well, I'd serve you drugs on a silver plate
If I thought it would help you get away
I hope that you would do this for me
A deer that a hunter shot in the heart
Some dogs that got hit by cars
All came to spill their guts
And we spoke
About the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
And which psalms we had loved the most
And then we all turned to dirt and dust
Some men die under the mountain just looking for gold
Some die looking for a hand to hold
Well, I carry this box to its proper place
And when I lower it down I let you fade away
I hope that you would do this for me
Well, I'd serve you drugs on a silver plate
If I thought it would help you get away
I hope that you would do this for me
I stole bricks from the dam almost every day
Now I'm drowning in the flood I've made
Who'll explain myself to me on the other side
I'm gonna want some answers when I die.
Well, I carry this box to the proper place
And when I lower it down
I let you fade away
I hope that you would do this for me
Well, I'd serve you drugs on a silver plate
If I thought it would help you get away
I hope that you would do this for me

Brand New At The Bottom Comments
Just heard this for the first time. I love it
Jesse is such a great song writer
Still an awesome song!
Heavy modest mouse vibes
Who makes a dam outta bricks?
"Think there's something dark living down in my heart." Now if that's not some refreshing humility for this self-righteous age of outrage...
10 years and only 495k views? Wow, this song is so underated. It deserves better.
"some die looking for a hand to hold" i really hate hearing this line, it triggers something bad in me that i dont even want to mention..
2019?
This song digs a hole in your heart
Please stop asking for dates. Of course this digs deep dear.
2019 duh.
@Sara Smiles That was beautiful and passionate. I appreciate it, but I'm on your side. I just think some people say that to get "likes" and I feel that's silly. That's all, not taking anything away from anyone, take care
Thought I was the only one lol
2019 anyone?
If you keep in mind everything that has come to light about Jesse Lacey with his personal struggles and past Behavior this song eerily begins to look like a confession and a cry for help and I'll explain why when he says we are not what we intend or invent because I make little lies and then I tear them apart I think something dark is living down in my heart and when he says a deer a hunter shot in the heart some dogs they got hit by cars come to spill their guts and we spoke about the father Son and Holy Ghost and which songs we love the most and watch them turn to dirt and dust seems to me he's talking about his struggles and his past Behavior and the second part where he talks about the animals in the Holy Ghost he's talking about spilling his guts and therapy in contemplating his spirituality and finding God or coming to terms with what he's done a lot of his songs could be looked at differently and have a deeper or double meaning I think he was struggling a lot more than I would have realized until I looked and listened and re-evaluated his lyrics
These guys really were the shit
I hope that you would do this for me.
I'm still hooked on this song!
from Radiotunes
This is one of the greatest songs ever
Old gold
The guitar at the begining of this song gives me emotions lol
On January 24 2018 I learned that I have a brother.
I don't want another brother.
I just want my brother back.
I like this album a lot more than The Devil and God, honestly.
That's high praise
Story time:
Okay so I don't know many Brand New songs, but I absolutely love the hook to Sowing Seasons.
Anyway, I saw some graffiti last time I was in Bristol that says "Some die looking for a hand to hold" and it struck deep and stayed with me. I decided to google it randomly just now whilst listening to Sowing Seasons on a playlist.
Weird.
Thats awesome
Story time is so cringe
Some men die under the mountain just lookin for gold, some die lookin for hand to hold....
So true though
1 of 2 bands that I will actually go buy every album that comes out
Like Brand New?
Make sure to check out La Dispute
Andrew Martin La Dispute is amazing as well but they make me wanna kill myself lmao
wat is the meaning of this song?
A DEER THAT A HUNTER SHOT IN THE HEART
Just ughhhh this song is beautifullll
When this is the last song you chose to listen to before you get on the bus headed to basic training
I remember listening to this on my cellphone in the St John's airport bathroom, no headphones
@black spring do your research. Communism has killed 150milllion + over the years. Not saying I support the army(in any country not just America) but also keep in mind that most of the people joining are just poor and want security for themselves and their family. The ones who join to be killers should be drowned in a pool of piss but don't generalize because that's the root of a lot of problems in our day and age.
@seven im not a communist. Im an anarchist.
When you question your terrible life choices you mean?
Great song. I love this band. #IndieRaps
Something about the melody at the start of the song reminds me of Pearl Jam, dunno why
Straight up Modest Mouse tho.
me and my sister LOVE THIS SONG
Brand New and Tool = my dark music
wonderful choices. although for me, they each provide a distinct, yet perfect blend of dark and light<33
Tbh only just getting into Brand New even though I've known a song or two for years,but Tool?
You just gave me incentive to continue listening.
Arguably my two favorite bands. Brand New is definitely darker, for better or worse. Tool has the same raw, visceral pain but supplements it with a spirituality.
HOLY FUCK, you're, like, my musical soulmate...
What a good jam
Emo Modest Mouse?
early modest mouse was pretty emo sounding- but i definitely hear what you're saying
I hope that someone would do these things for me...
Truly the only band that actually gets better with time. So awesome
They aren’t the only band that gets better with time haven’t you ever heard of august burns red?

I also love Brand New, little fox! Good to know.
@Christopher Ogden Thank you!
What is good about Brand New is they got better with every album. Bands like Fallout Boy had an original sound at first and then produced trendy mainstream crap. Brand New started kind of Poppy and then transitioned into a unique/amazing/dark, but in a good way band. Love Brand New!
Like Radiohead~
I totally agree man, I had a serious fall out boy phase back in the from under the Cork tree days and their bside albums is one of my favorite albums of all time. I swear brand new has never had ONE bad song. and I can't say that about any other band.
Loooooove
Thanks for the HD upload.
so fucking good
Rise Against profile picture?FUCK YEAH
+Venomous Watermelon
Generic grinning watermelon profile picture!
Hells yes!
it says "I'm slowly bringing you down from the Heavenly gates. Now I'm drowning in the flood I've made. Well explain myself to me on the other side. I'll watch from Heaven when I die."
Is actually CORRECT LYRICS:
"I stole bricks from the dam almost every day,
Now I'm drowning in the flood I've made.
Well explain myself to me on the other side,
Cause I'll want some answers when I die."
+Reed Lobbestael Thank god those are the right lyrics, the OP's lyrics blow
I stole bricks from the dam almost every day, now im drowning in the flood ive made
Powiem ze Super Nutka ;)
It's "lives" not lies. Listen to it acoustic.
Also "psalms" not songs.
5 people don't appreciate Brand New.
Marcell Demeter 40
Always criticizing the smiths
And one of them is always the mixtape chick
i use to shot heroin and nood off to this song. goodtimes...
@Thel 'Vadam HILLBILLY HEROIN FOR ME!
+Bill Waggoner . same. 3 years clean now, song sounds a lot better
same bro same
I was beyond that already, but i cant get ahold of what i need to move forward
Your Favorite Weapon is completely a pop punk record.
It's great though
yeah that was the thing at the time. seems weird with their current discography but in high school it was the shit
musically theyre hugely inspired by hardcore music. They started off musical careers in hardcore bands before Brand New. I hear a lot of hardcore elements in their music.. maybe not this song so much but still...
This is so fucking good.. ._.
Modest Mouse + Radiohead(ish)
can some people help me out here, does anyone know the meaning to all the lyrics to this song? like a pretty accurate one'
TDAGARIM and Daisy are my favorite albums from Brand New they are so good
If you don't know you think this is a Blue October song
How in anyway is brand new an emo band? or in anyway related to hardcore? None of there songs sound even remotely like hardcore.
Everyone needs to stop arguing, get over themselves and appreciate perfection.
true that
Please do not compare this band to the emo genre. Different things, emo fashion and music deserves to disappear into obscurity with all the other lame fads.
Yet another great band I've missed in my life.;) Very impressive.
I don't understand the hate this album gets. I think it's brilliant. It's essentially TDAGARIM continued, but more like "The Devil Is Winning," which makes it sound really bad ass. I love the way Jesse screams throughout the album.
I seriously overlooked this whole album when I bought it years ago. I thought it was good but I was all about The Devil and God are Raging Inside Me... anyways I found Daisy in my cd collection and I've had it playing in my car stereo for 3 months now! Actually obsessed. and this song is perfection.
Wow, it really is impossible for them to write a bad song
No, you go fuck yourself.
nah just kiddin' man, no hostility here. but seriously, they are emo. not the kind like asking alexandria, which is probably what you're thinking of.
standout song from my first listen through
goosebumps and feels, goosebumps and feels
It's only like that in the demo version
i think he means bands like bon jovi, def leppard, etc., which are considered hair metal, not metallica or iron maiden, etc., which id consider heavy metal
I'm slowly bringing you down from the Heavenly gates < should be... well i stole bricks from the damn almost every day
'Some die looking for a hand to hold' <3
Respect things man, metal hasn't done anything to you, not in the 80s nor now, its just some type of music way better than pop, rythm and blues or reggeaton because at least its composed by the people who play it and they can actually play instruments, and in many cases with huge skills. So if you don't like it great for you but that doesn't make it crap.
This the first song i've ever heard from these and i like this pretty much! I just have to ask if you really think these guys are musically "more than gods"? It maybe i haven't listened these guys or you and i have different picture about being "musically gods". For instance i think The Mars Volta are musically gods. If you haven't listened to their music, i recommend a song called "Tetragrammaton".
Nice job, Dad!!
this song is every mistake you cant get away from. it's hard to put that kind of feeling in music.
Brand New and Modest Mouse are my favorite bands.
LetsGetHighOnMorris I saw them live together in 2016
He doesn't want to be recognized, not arguing with you just tell you he said it himself also plus it is better this way only unique people get to here music of a band that hasn't sold out :)
what does this song mean?
"No faith in my generation" sob story. This band is huge. In the scope of things, no...but in the world of alternative, emo, and pop-punk. They are huge. Also each generation listens to crap. In the '80s it was hair metal, etc.
Crap! Listen to Kelly Clarkson ...now she's talented! Buy Kelly Clarkson - Greatest Hits: Chapter 1
I want to know how you can dislike this song. The best band around. Period.
awesome, haven't seen good music in a while got caught up in the popularity of rap, its hard for teenagers to find good music,
I keep repeating this song over and over. it just became my favorite Brand New song at the moment. I love this band.
actually Jesse stated looking back he's not into daisy so much. And that if they put out another record it will be the evolution after deja.
Lol, I agree with your comment.
i found them thanks to tumblr, someone posted there 'in a jar'. now i'm in love with this band
Wow. They won you over with their worst song. Now that's a damn fine band.
Some men die under the mountain just looking for gold
Some die looking for a hand to hold
Could not have said it any better.
And Jesse's voice...
hnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng<3
Heres one, just delete the spaces. extre men onch alance .com / pos t/ 29055 8 27 33 4 /brandnewinterview
Listen to his recent interviews. He didnt write the full album. Vin wrote most of the album. Jesse just did vocals. I dont know about playing the songs live but he said doesnt like hearing the songs cause they are exhausting
They said it's an album that they enjoy playing live, and Jesse wrote a lot of Daisy
He didn't exactly say he didn't like it. He said listening to it is "Exhausting"
word?????????? lol
Best band of my generation.
Ahhh, that beginning.
yeah man if you listen to all their albums they really progress from like pop punk to folky and its all good too
I come to this song time and time again when Im feeling low. Reminds me of last year when I would stare at the Tay and think of those that just gave up. Real Music Makes You Think Feel
THIS... this is the best
