Nah there becoming ridiculous now they need to retire after lane it’s going down hill there good in concerts now though this song I like not the other ones
@@puppetmaster8551 He also shouldn't have said "underrated" like 99.9999999999999999% of RUclips comments say about everything and everyone, even though I don't believe for a a second that he actually know what Jerry is "rated" to begin with. Where would I have to look to find out what guitarists are rated in the first place?
Jerry is a hell of a writer...my interpretation...its about feeling isolated, lost and alone. trying to run away but being confronted and haunted by bad memories. having difficulties getting a clear sense of self.
[Verse 1] Mended fence along the road Barely holding together Mapless zone the road signs hold Keep ahead of the weather (Guy, Driving in his car) Long past time to close dead eyes Find a break in the highway Out here I'm invisible Very few going my way (Guy, Stops car to get out at dawn, no one around in sight) [Chorus] Breath on a window showing tic tac toe Rear view reflecting there ain't nobody home (View from 2nd person(Assuming its a girl), spotting him walking outside but him not being able to see her from inside) [Verse 2] Ghost town strip of misery I ain't feeling no better Road kill heart inside of me Follow it to the letter (Guy feeling comfortable in the town, cause it's weaker than him, following directions from a letter to something he desires) Sundown brings a welcome change Everything that's hiding More at home in landscapes strange Are you selling I'm buying (Guy searches place, Sunlight shines through broken old home, revealing more signals of the unknown) [Chorus] Breath on a window showing tic tac toe Rear view reflecting there ain't nobody home Cigarette burn holes outline an old soul Connect the dot scribbling And you would never know (Girl view again, guy and girl meet, re-read the letter, old friends meet again) [Verse 3] Failed to heed the signal Thought you got through just in time Crashing hard upon your ego Penetrated from the side (Guy realizes it's a trap, flees but is being catches on his way out, penetrated from the side) [Bridge] I'd let you go, but you're always in the way I'm the damage done, your scar of yesterday (x4) I'd love to go, but you're always in the way I'm the damage done, your scar of yesterday (x4) (Girl would let him go, but he's always in the way, She's the dmg done his scars of yesterday Guy would love to go, but she's always in the way, He's the dmg done her scars of yesterday) You tell me if I'm slightly off somewhere cause I wanna get the story right xD
That guitar at the end should be heard by everyone. This song is pure Alice! No one sounds like these guys. Mad respect that people try but dude and dudets Jerry is a fucking god! Orgasmic!!!!! They need to play this tune live someday
I must be a lame. I'm nineteen years old just now getting into Alice in Chains. By the way, it only took me to listen to this song once for me to fall in love with it.
***** BlackDiamond1774 I am 45 and have loved them since they first came out with Layne staley as the singer he would be so proud as to how far they have come with the new singer William Duvall glad y'all like them
better late than never ... :) I know that feeling, to be in love with this band! I continue this whole time ...They saved my life when I was 15 years old, 10 years later, they continue to be one of my favorite bands, and the place where I feel safe!
03:22 Why, o why do I always listen to them when I think that the dust on some issues has finally settled ... Fucking Jerry Cantrell and his ability to switch your every emotional button on. Pure fucking gold.
TTOMO I think there’s a reason they don’t play the title track live. A lot of people got upset about that song when it was released. I personally agree with and love that song, but a lot of people just didn’t get it.
Good luck with that...for some crazy reason Jerry doesn’t wanna play his best songs live but just run through the greatest hits of Dirt each time. I’m sure Pearl Jam would play a song as good as this.
Epic song defo one of my faves from the album. I get chills. I also get "Shame In You" vibe from it. You know the ending riff in the song in "Shame In You" that starts about 5 mins in to the song... I get the feeling in this song about 2:00 in to it. It maybe just me. I don't know. Damn I love the song "Shame in You" But "Shame In You" and "Nutshell" are the two songs I found so damn hard to listen too, not because its Layne voice and pain that rips so hard in those songs, I just choke. Damn I miss you Layne. But Thank You Jerry, Sean and Mike for keeping Alice alive. And Will gives a great flavour to the band, never Layne will be replaced.. Why would they want that, and why would people want someone to be the next Layne. And just happy and proud Jerry wanted too carry on and Layne would want him too.
This whole album is beyond amazing, I went out and bought it the same week is was on the rack, my disc has absolutely no scratches on it, I love this whole album, my favorite songs on the album are "The Devil Put Dinosaurs Here", "Voices", and "Breath on a Window", greatest songs I have ever hear from this one of a kind band
Very rock and roll track!!!!!Guitars sometimes are late 70's very hard rock and then the number completly change and atmosphere gets schizoic as fuck!!!!!!!!and then to it becomes sentimental power ballad!!I love those "yeahee, yeahee, YEAH!" at the end like if it was Scorpions mtv hit.Amazing!!!!!
3:30 when the song gets here shit gets real, goosbumps kick in at 4:02
I like the whole song but the outro is so good
+TooNu i'm right there with you.
me too
Damn right dude!
Damn right,brother!
Its good to see comments from people who get it ,what a beautiful color from the best the ALMIGHTY ALICE IN CHAINS
Highly highly highly underrated album.
My favorite AIC release ever. I'm not kidding.
Nah it weak this a great song though
Nah there becoming ridiculous now they need to retire after lane it’s going down hill there good in concerts now though this song I like not the other ones
What's the album rated? I mean, since you obviously must know.
Each album get worse but each album after this one are not good it’s not as good without Layne
"🎵🎸🎤 I'd (let you/love to) go
But you're always in the way
I'm the damage done
Your scar of yesterday. 🎤🎸🎵"
3:30 - That's why Alice in Chains is so brilliant!
Agree with 3:40 onward, just phenomenal stuff. Jerry Cantrell most underrated musician of past 2 1/2 decades.
why exactly 2.5 years ? who was the one before him ?
D Germain he said 2 1/2 decades so he means the last 25 yrs, he should’ve said last 30yrs tho
Hes my guitar idol
True…. 30 years

[Verse 1]
Mended fence along the road
Barely holding together
Mapless zone the road signs hold
Keep ahead of the weather
(Guy, Driving in his car)
Long past time to close dead eyes
Find a break in the highway
Out here I'm invisible
Very few going my way
(Guy, Stops car to get out at dawn, no one around in sight)
[Chorus]
Breath on a window showing tic tac toe
Rear view reflecting there ain't nobody home
(View from 2nd person(Assuming its a girl), spotting him walking outside but him not being able to see her from inside)
[Verse 2]
Ghost town strip of misery
I ain't feeling no better
Road kill heart inside of me
Follow it to the letter
(Guy feeling comfortable in the town, cause it's weaker than him, following directions from a letter to something he desires)
Sundown brings a welcome change
Everything that's hiding
More at home in landscapes strange
Are you selling I'm buying
(Guy searches place, Sunlight shines through broken old home, revealing more signals of the unknown)
[Chorus]
Breath on a window showing tic tac toe
Rear view reflecting there ain't nobody home
Cigarette burn holes outline an old soul
Connect the dot scribbling
And you would never know
(Girl view again, guy and girl meet, re-read the letter, old friends meet again)
[Verse 3]
Failed to heed the signal
Thought you got through just in time
Crashing hard upon your ego
Penetrated from the side
(Guy realizes it's a trap, flees but is being catches on his way out, penetrated from the side)
[Bridge]
I'd let you go, but you're always in the way
I'm the damage done, your scar of yesterday (x4)
I'd love to go, but you're always in the way
I'm the damage done, your scar of yesterday (x4)
(Girl would let him go, but he's always in the way, She's the dmg done his scars of yesterday
Guy would love to go, but she's always in the way, He's the dmg done her scars of yesterday)
You tell me if I'm slightly off somewhere cause I wanna get the story right xD
God damn, those riffs ant the end, i feel like i could listen to them forever.
You can. This is RUclips.
Right?! That outro is amazing
That guitar at the end should be heard by everyone. This song is pure Alice! No one sounds like these guys. Mad respect that people try but dude and dudets Jerry is a fucking god! Orgasmic!!!!! They need to play this tune live someday
I'm about to take the outro of this song and chop and loop it. good enough to be it's own song
Kevin Chabaud Jerry is the best out there👍👍👍👍
My favortie post layne alice song 100%
Outro sounds majestic.
I must be a lame. I'm nineteen years old just now getting into Alice in Chains. By the way, it only took me to listen to this song once for me to fall in love with it.

BlackDiamond1774 Welcome to the club and enjoy the ride.
***** Thank you! Hopefully the new album comes out before I die of old age.
better late than never ... :) I know that feeling, to be in love with this band! I continue this whole time ...They saved my life when I was 15 years old, 10 years later, they continue to be one of my favorite bands, and the place where I feel safe!
I got into them when I was 19, I felt the same! 28 now and still my favourite band, always will be.
03:22
Why, o why do I always listen to them when I think that the dust on some issues has finally settled ... Fucking Jerry Cantrell and his ability to switch your every emotional button on. Pure fucking gold.
because your not a clown. clowns are allergic to alice in chains
You are 100%right Jerry's the man
funny you say that because Sean Kinney was a clown for a while. You can check it out in The Nona Tapes.
This song has an unexpected turn...excelent combination...it becomes a litle dark at the end..
Fukcing amazing song !!! 4:10 sounds unbelievable - I can listen 24h.
This album is amazing!!! Just as every other album they've ever put out is!!!
OMFG, just the outro riff is so awesome! Its so addictive, so uplifting, makes me wanna go outside and run all day!
makes me wanna slit my wrists, but in a good way.
Adrian Onute lmao
I don't know what it is but 3:30 and onward is just the catchiest shit I've ever heard. I can't stop rewinding it!
Jerry is a pure genius
Great song ...
One of the best off the album!
Stop just stop tears go Alice shit man happy soul happy HAPPY soul thanks
It's amazing how talented and awesome Jerry is, one of the greatest musician along with one of the greatest bands ever still standing.
hands down one of the most underrated rock songs of all time
I love this chorus.
BREATH ON A WINDOW! SHOWING TIC TAC TOE! REAR VIEW REFLECTING! THERE AIN'T NOBODY HOME!
I get tears in my eyes during the outro and I'm not embarrassed to say it
They need to play this and the title track live on the upcoming tour. Not just Hollow and Stone all the time.
TTOMO trueeeeeee but they won't.. at least they play voices still
TTOMO I think there’s a reason they don’t play the title track live. A lot of people got upset about that song when it was released. I personally agree with and love that song, but a lot of people just didn’t get it.

One of my favourites from their new band. Crank it up
Amazing!! song!!!
ZERO dislikes
+AmonTheLord87 AHEM. i believe jar of flies came out after facelift.
+Greg the Elder still true 6 months later
Greg the Elder someone's always gotta ruin it
Best song from "The Devil Put Dinosaurs Here"
\,,/
I like Phantom Limb more but Breath on a Window is right behind it.
Erich Souza Choke was better
I'd personally go for Low Ceiling, but ymmv. All of the tracks from this album are at least above-average.
Erich Souza Love this one ☝🏻 and Choke... speaks to me personally.
there's no haters here lets keep it that way
Lets
fight club + aic fans? i love you all

Shame in You and this song are on that level...they're so good that they never play them live.
I like the way this sounds better than the normal one
Beautiful song from AIC, The first song that heard from AIC was stone and I was 12 when I listened to AIC for the first time 🤘🤘
The audio on this upload is slightly faster than the album version, raising the pitch a little bit too. I actually prefer it this way
This whole album is beyond amazing, I went out and bought it the same week is was on the rack, my disc has absolutely no scratches on it, I love this whole album, my favorite songs on the album are "The Devil Put Dinosaurs Here", "Voices", and "Breath on a Window", greatest songs I have ever hear from this one of a kind band
There's a thumbs down on this song. Someone must be trippin balls.
Don't even insulting tripping to reference a thumbs down to that. How can we otherwise disparage them? Lol
3.40 onwards is so catchy i cant stop listening to it. Loving the new AiC Album
Alice is coming through with amazing music after the biggest hit they'll ever take.
Lesson Learned Pt.2
I here it man!
Love the pitch
Very rock and roll track!!!!!Guitars sometimes are late 70's very hard rock and then the number completly change and atmosphere gets schizoic as fuck!!!!!!!!and then to it becomes sentimental power ballad!!I love those "yeahee, yeahee, YEAH!" at the end like if it was Scorpions mtv hit.Amazing!!!!!
This song makes me wanna drive fast as fuck
Awesome song
what a song..a-w-e-s-o-m-e
Yessss ...more more great music AIC!
I think the album cover is pretty cool
Drake Davis Triceratops with the devil horns 😈
That last minute and a half slaps!
That ending!
I'd love to go, but you're always in the way
I'm the damage done, your scar of yesterday
I LOVE IT.
You look like Sean kinney
my god..
God I love this track absolutely epic ...the end
great track
Fire at 4:02
someone said > we still have jerry cantrell !
That outro..wow
first riff = one note song by tenacious d :)
Miss you Layne {sobs}
This song reminds me of Check my brain
Did you pitch shift this song? Something's off
Sad.
Nice! Thanks btw for the upload
Grunge at its best
the devil put the dinosaurs here but I put you here. call me " Daddy".
Man, this entire album is so fucking dark.
The final part at 3:30 sounds like it’s from a 1980s metal song.
Foda d+!!!
At 0:46 When it says (showing tic tac toe) it sounds like its saying SHOWING NINTENDO!
top
Does anybody else here a little bit of whale and the wasp here.
yes
I agree. Thats where i went the first time hearing it. This song is like an anchor more than a whale or whasp however.
This video is too fast and out of key. Sounds weird
Well penned song but disappointed in Cantrell for producing a song so Oasis - like.
Far superior song to anything Oasis have ever written.
Nice...
To me it's funny because it sounds like a slowed down early Foo Fighters song.
