About Swallowed

"Swallowed" is a song by British rock band Bush, released in October 1996 as the lead single from the band's second studio album, Razorblade Suitcase (1996). It also appeared on both Bush greatest-hits albums, with live versions appearing on Zen X Four (2005) and Live in Tampa (2020), with remixed editions featured on Deconstructed (1997) and Loads of Remixes (2024). A power ballad, the song is in A-flat major. Gavin Rossdale opined in 1999 that, despite a musical dissimilarity, the song was "[his] version" of the Beatles' song "Help!". .

Swallowed Lyrics

[00:00.56] Warm sun, feed me up
[00:04.48] And I'm leery, loaded up
[00:10.36] Loathing, for a change
[00:14.79] And I slip some, boil away
[00:20.87] Swallowed, followed
[00:27.05] Heavy 'bout everything but my love
[00:32.49] Swallowed, sorrowed
[00:37.84] I'm with everyone and yet not
[00:42.92] I'm with everyone and yet not
[00:48.52] I'm with everyone and yet
[00:55.10]
[01:01.49] Just wanted to be myself
[01:05.74]
[01:08.78] Hey you said you would, love to try some
[01:14.34] Hey you said you would love to die some
[01:19.76] In the middle of a world on a fishhook
[01:25.16] You're the wave
[01:26.64] You're the wave
[01:28.20] You're the wave
[01:31.36] Swallowed, borrowed
[01:36.22] Heavy 'bout everything but my love
[01:41.88] Swallowed, hollowed
[01:47.24] Sharp about everyone but yourself
[01:52.39] Swallowed, oh no
[01:57.21] I'm with everyone and yet not
[02:03.14] I'm with everyone and yet not
[02:08.53] I'm with everyone and you're not
[02:13.31] I'm with everyone and yet
[02:19.31]
[02:48.57] Piss on, self-esteem
[02:55.26] Forward, busted knee
[03:00.85] Sick head, blackened lungs
[03:05.21] And I'm simple, selfish son
[03:11.67] Swallowed, followed
[03:17.53] Heavy 'bout everything but my love
[03:23.29] Swallowed, oh no
[03:27.84] I'm with everyone and yet not
[03:33.53] I'm with everyone and yet not
[03:38.97] I'm with everyone and yet not
[03:44.97]
[03:52.10] Got to get away from here
[03:55.11] Got to get away from here
[03:57.92] Got to get away from here
[04:00.52] Got to get away from here
[04:05.82] Miss the one that I love a lot
[04:10.91] I miss the one that I love a lot
[04:16.10] I miss the one that I love a lot, a lot
[04:21.10]
