"Drag" is the third track on Grey Daze's 1997 sophomore album ...No Sun Today.

Background

"Drag" was written sometime in late 1996 and recorded live in the studio by David Knauer and Mike Jones during the pre-production session for ...No Sun Today in December. That same month, Knauer was in a bad car accident so he had to move way from the project. The album version was produced by Jones.[1]

Lyrics

Album Version

Puncture me, make me feel like I am real
Torture me, drag me under you
Tide, lifts me up and down
Tide, makes me shut up

Life, is much too short to be intoxicated
Life, is much too short to be a drag

Please treat me like I am a fallen angel
Suppress me, tell me lies

Life, is much too short to be intoxicated
Life, is much too short to be a drag

You can tell me lies...

Life, is much too short to be intoxicated
Life, is much too short to be a drag

Drag...
Drag...
Drag...
